    Official 'Smoking Turbo' response from Mazda

    ***UPDATE*** Had Pennzoil Platinum 5W-40 in the car for 3000 miles now and no smoke has been present. I run Shell 93 V-Power exclusively and get 400 miles to the tank on the highway. Will switch to Rotella 5W-40 and see what happens next week.

    Water in CAI/Hydrolock

    Well, I have never said I Hydrolocked, just put it in the thread title for advice reasons. But yeah, I knew that the MAF shorted out and caused the engine to shut off and I also knew that I didn't have much water in the CAI because I was in neutral as soon as I hit the puddle. All is working...

    Rotella T Synthetic

    WAL-MART has the best buy. However, you'll have to buy 2 more quarts. That'll total about 30 bucks.

    Water in CAI/Hydrolock

    Yes, I think most of us who have CAIs know that dude. And truthfully, today I was driving carelessly. CAIs do help and there are noticeable gains. However, you've listed parts that would set the average buyer over $1000 bucks to remedy a situation that can be controlled by cautious driving skills.

    Water in CAI/Hydrolock

    Might just stick with this setup and try avoiding water until I can get a COBB SRI. No one, as of my knowledge, has made an air bypass valve yet for teh MS6. AEM's air bypass valve is only for NA vehicles.

    Water in CAI/Hydrolock

    Yeah, it also doesn't help that AEM DIDN"T make one for the Mazdaspeed 6!!!! I tell you, this will be my FIRST and LAST forced induction car! Next time, it's gonna be NA ALL THE WAY!

    Water in CAI/Hydrolock

    Yeah, I've never had an issue with the MS CAI until now. However, I've always wanted the COBB SRI and probably will get one once I sell this MS CAI. The MS CAI has been great but was a pain in the ass to install as well as maintain since the splash guard I have needed to be re-bolted with NEW...

    Water in CAI/Hydrolock

    Damn fellas, finally happened to me tonight while driving home down small roads. It was raining like all hell here in Eastern NC and I went over a 5-7 inch puddle and then all my lights came on (CEL, Battery, Oil...) and then engine cut off. I knew at once it was the MS CAI. Was stuck on the...

    Sounds like you need an alignment dude. This car is notorious for alignment issues. I would align every 10k miles if you can and get tires from a place where they would do free rotations every 3-5k miles.

    Nexen N5000 225/40/18 Just bought a set of 225/40/18 Nexen N5000s and they feel SO much better than the stock Potenzas as well as the Nankang NS-II's. The ride quality is quiet as hell and makes me wanna go to sleep on the highway at cruising speeds (65-70mph of course). Will update you guys...

    Jacking Points

    Lol. I think the dealership I bought the car from ripped a section out because it's missing some pages....And that section is definitely not there.

    Official 'Smoking Turbo' response from Mazda

    That's BullSH*t dude. I am using Pennzoil Platinum 5W-40 that my dealer put in themselves. I don't think the brand matters. If it's gonna smoke, it will regardless of oil brand. But indeed, no less than 5W-40 should be used. My car has had 1000 miles since the dealer did the fix and no smoke so...
