Got the Denso ITV22's, and Forge BPV installed today. Still waiting for a few things to arrive.
You're running a step colder with the Denso's I take it? Do you anticipate any issues with fouling on a stock car? I've heard pros/cons about going with them. It's something that I'd like to do but need to do more homework first.

I was worried about that as well, but I've put about 30 miles on them thus far (including a little bit of "spirited driving" to test it) and have absolutely no issues. Gimme a few days to put some more miles on them and we'll see. Only reason I went with them was because they were the only ones I could get my hands on at the time and the previous ones were in bad shape.

Agreed, I just love the speed3, IMO it's the best looking car mazda ever made, seeing them in groups is even better...

that was an awesome drive today! My friend and I have already planned our return, but i'f excited to see what kind of other roads you guys know about.
I let you know when we're going we just haven't pinned a day yet. The pics are great too...

You figured out the recirc fitting then or did you install it VTA?
I caution VTA. Some people have had no issues, but I ended up throwing a misfire code with VTA.

Is there any advantage in VTA? Other than a louder ping, I assume.

All VTA does is make a different sound.
Other than that, it discharges metered air out of the intake tract causing your engine to go rich for a moment.

haha
i hope your running a tune with those ITV22s, otherwise they will foul in rougly 10k. you need hotter operating temps = more boost more often. I only run mine during the summer when i autox almost every weekend, now shes got stock plugs in since i rarely hit high boost
