hey neox / Mazdaspeed2oo35 i was told a few days ago on another forum that upgrading the turbo on the msp can destroy the stock tranny is that true?

Well you really need to do some work to your transmission in order not to break it with stock turbo or bigger one.. this is what i have done to my transmission and basically is holding what ever I'am trowing at it. It also depends how you drive your car, driving habits and how you treat it, I don't race my car everyday, i don't slam gears and i do periodic maintenance using good products.

* Fidanza 7.5 lbs flywheel.

If you've already got this much done, why not run a transmission cooler?

Just sayin'

have you done any hard pulls through 5th gear? are you running the oem 5th gear?

 

[Mazdaspeed2oo35]

have you done any hard pulls through 5th gear? are you running the oem 5th gear?

Yes, Actually the Dyno Video i posted earlier was done in 5th gear... I mean i don't race my car that much anymore, i'm just fixing things, cleaning, etc. I really don't punish it that much like back at Miami. I just drive it on the weekends and sometimes i don't even race it..

I totally agree with you, i mean I still have tons of stuff i could do to make it run better, Is just a matter of money, money is tight right now and economy is not helping to make some extra money to save up and add more toys.

First Performance toy I'm going to add besides the list under is the 505zoom Intake Manifold.

I want to add Doc-B Oil pump and oil system with a engine oil cooler as well, Transmission oil cooler, Quaife LSD, Front and Rear BBK, add Engine Oil Temp gauge, Transmission oil Temp Gauge, and Engine Temperature gauge. i'm also considering adding a 50 shot NOS kit to make my turbo spool faster in lower rpm's and a Intercooler Spray Kit to work along with my Methanol Injection Kit. also Safeguard along with a knock Light. When i do all these i will definitely stop adding more money to this car, i think is already enough.

Well today i decided to go a little further with my stock exhaust...last weekend i cut off the cats on the midpipe and lastnight i cut off the stock resonator and i clamped in the proper piping and what not.....so today i am going to get the resonator section welded i took a short video of how the exhaust sounds like without cats and resonator...a hella mean sounding for stock exhaust and the backfires are sweet...you'll be able to hear one in the video well here it is

[Velocifero]

link didn't work for me.

 

[Jasonboy]

Eh not really a fan of how it sounds. Not sure if it sounds that way in person but the video makes it sound kinda high pitched

 

[axisboldaslove]

it's a little bit high pitched right now cuz the resonator section is just clamped on it has a leak as of right now but i am putting on the other muffler on today that will be clamped on and i'll have to then get it all welded up sometime soon ...

i don't think that it sounds high pitched (dunno)
