So I was driving my stock exhaust-leaking, whistling-wastegate, half-assed-A/C, broken-sub, broken-headunit, clunking-swaybar, crazy-fuel-curve, CEL-throwin, block-number-two MSP on Saturday night when my friend asked me to come to a dealership with him (large automall). While he was over at...

Seems my car doesn't like being stock. Had less problems when it was modded. Can't wait to drop off my car with a nice list for them... - Fix A/C: Blows warm during the day; Re-charged it myself but still inconsistent temps - Fix wastegate: Loud whislting at idle, diagnosed as hole in...

Not bad, it's coming together nicely... (hah) (drunk)

I had no luck in the for sale/wtb section... just quickly wondering if anyone knows of a FS-DE short block for sale, or some place that sells them. I appreciate any help, thanks!

Well after completely de-modding my car in hopes of trading it in, I've discovered that's nearly impossible. Out of the ten or so dealers I've spoke to, none have been able to determine the value of my car, none have called back. Then I got to thinking... what the hell, I may as well hold on to...

Having a very hard time deciding between these two cars... just curious as to which you would pick. I just want a nice daily driver, nothing to modify or race.

This post is not ment as a flame, nor should it be turned into one. I'm mainly posting this as a little lesson of the day, after reading the recent arguments on the forum regarding DiscreetSpeed and his claims. Maybe this will shed some light on the subject and even clear up any disbelief people...

My buddy got an STI last week, and just the other day had the wastegate ported to accomodate a 3.5" turbo-back exhaust. :) Only other mod is HKS SSQ BOV. Enjoy... sorry for the large file size... http://www.turbodreamsdvd.com/STI.mov

(Reposted here with approval) I've been getting a lot of inquiries lately regarding Billet Design's plans on the short-ram intake for MSPs. So, here's your chance... if 10 of you are interested in buying a SRI for your Mazdaspeed within the next week, a group buy will be started in the For Sale...

I've recently noticed a lot of people calling BS on kill stories posted by MSP owners. Their logic is entirely based on 1/4 mile ETs. "A WRX runs 14.4, you only run a 14.7, it should smoke you!" is a paraphrased example. Many are overlooking the trap speeds, probably the only relavent number...

I'm in need of a FCD for the track next Friday. I'd like to get some #s with this exhaust. Unfortunately Joe P. has a lot of orders to fill, and won't be able to get me one in time. For you guys storing your cars for the winter, or any nice people interested in helping, please PM me if you're...

Just gauging interest. The exhaust is 3" from the downpipe, no cats, your choice of muffler (I recommend the HKS carbon-ti :)), full 304 stainless steel (not pictured). Incredibly clean, deep exhaust note. $739 - Full 3" exhaust (no cats) from the downpipe w/ N1 style muffler Option: +$50 for...

Lets put together a little MSP 1/4 mile list. I'll update the list as each time is posted. Any MSP owners may post their times, with list of modifications. If you can, please provid a scanned slip too. - 13.1 @ 104mph - xsivspd - Intake, FMIC, Full exhaust, Clutch, Flywheel, FCD, MBC (12psi) -...

I hope this post stays here. I don't want Profec settings from a MP3 running a T3 setup or something. Any Mazdaspeed guys with Profec B Spec IIs figured out the settings yet? Yeah I searched, only found posts from people still toying with the settings. They didn't work for me. This car is real...

Got my Defi D-Gauges & Profec B Spec II in. Gotta recommend both. Great quality products. Sorry for the bad pictures (vid cam captures)... I need the DaveB gauge rings now. :p Also had the fuel pressure pulsation dampener removed, a restriction in the factory fuel system. Similar to...

I noticed moderators are moving posts with videos of Mazdaspeeds to the Photo/Video forum. I think video & photo posts should remain here because: a.) Discussions can be formed in these particular posts relating to the Mazdaspeed (a great example is 505's BOV video post that turned into an...

3" open downpipe is fun. :) Here are a few vids: A little loud Backfiring Shooting flames Videos of the full exhaust coming soon.

I only see maybe 1 or two Mazdaspeeds a week on the road, but there are a few at the weekly car meets. It seems 9 out of 10 are titanium grey! A few weeks ago there was a small local meet, probably 30-40 cars... the only MSPs there were 3 titanium and mine (black). The next most common I see is...

I'm getting frustrated reading that the only thing we can do to control fuel is get a standalone unit. As you guys know our a/f dips below the chart at 3500. There is a nice array of fuel piggybacks on the market, all of which I haven't heard of any incompatibility, yet they're worthless to us...

Just curious what everyone here is running on pump gas. Do the poll above if you have a boost controller. Vote for the psi that you most see consistently in 3rd gear. Feel free to post your mods as well.
