what would you do with $950

:
2001 Mazda MP3
what i'm thiking is three options

Option one all new. ETS 3.5 tmic upgraded, TRZ engine and tranny mount combo and forge BPV

Option 2: used Sb and PNP and New forged BPV or upgraded mounts

Option 3: be like everyone else in america and horde my money and give no chance for the economy to turn around...

yeah I'm not gonna do option three but just venting with option 3

oh current mods are CS test pipe(installed) cs dp(uninstalled), and msd dashawk +PG intake in the mail

you could get a NEW standback and PnP harness with $950. That's what I'd do :)

Once I have the money, that will be my next purchase.
 
I thought they discontinued the 3.5" ETS TMIC? The option 2 would be good, but the sb come zeroed out so I would set some money to get tuned.. Laloosh from the other sites is selling the ms3 so im not sure if hes helping people tune anymore.
 
ditch the CS test pipe, keep the down pipe, match it to a vibrant down-pipe back exhaust and you have the cheapest 3 inch catted turbo back in town. upgraded mounts are not a bad idea either, honestly one of the first things to be done. turbo manifold yields a lot of power as well.

i can get a used one with a switch and mounting point for a lot cheaper and already have a couple of maps to start with. And a new SB and PnP is runnign for 882 right now from PG

but yeah, if i get the SB and PnP it will be used more than likely

well i only paid 300 for my DP and RP together.... and if i add the catback new i would only be at 775 for a TBE..

its still an option on PG.. but they might not have it.. i'm not sure
 
the PnP harnesses are backordered from CPe right now. could be a month or so on a new one, so used is the best immediate option. 3.5 is orderable however they are built to order on a 3 to 4 week basis.
 
Get the 2 TRZ mounts and a COBB AP. You dont need any more exhaust. Once you do the DP and RP thats all you need. A catback is worthless. The new AP maps are really good and you get more for your $$$ compared to the SB. The AP gets rid of fuel cut, gives throttle control, and a good tune. If you want all that from cpe, you have to get a SB and 2 ecu flashes.
And make sure to dump all that money into the economy at a place like.....
PROTEGE GARAGE !!

I agree and then sell the dashhawk to buy a Forge BPV

All stuff i buy new i ALWAYS buy from PG. unless they don't have it. As fas as the AP i just don't like the idea of using a map that was tuned out in CA for a car here in VA... and i won't have the EXACT same products that they use as far as exhuast and what not. I i want the cat back eventually to get rid of the DRONE... its horribly noticeable with just the RP installed

why wold i sell the DH? even if i were to go the AP route i would still hold onto my DH becuase i don't want a 600 dollar electronic sitting in my car for someone to snatch up
you should buy my coilovers lol.
hmm, you have BC's right? pm me a price
black jack table...double or nothing..!!
I'm not a gambling man...
