Okay guys, I am slowly but surely parting out the majority of the MS6. Wifey and I saw the opportunity tio move down to one car, and we are taking it. Going to buy a CX7 GT. So with that in mind, I am going to list my cx racing FMIC Kit. I have only had it on for a month and a half. I am looking to get $485 plus shipping. This retails for $659 plus shipping.

View going down where the windshield washer reservoir was
where it came down by the horns. . . u will have to bend that a bit not too much though
How it looks on the car with the bumper on and without the skirt.
Going up the drivers side. . . u will have to cut some plastic here
Bend to the Intake Mani
And the last shot with the recirculated bov
PM me for interest. It was a great addition that I wish I had more time with. As stated, only had it on for a month and a half. It is still on the car, but looking to take it off this coming weekend. Had to work on my brother's car this weekend.

wow, have you tried the other forums? i can't believe you still have the synapse.
what was the end of the story with the synapse, does it actually increase hp/hold the boost better than stock or was this a scam? i was reading somewhere about the dynos from synapse claiming +20 hp were fake.

hahah 20hp from a bov? I never read about that, but you do gain top end power most of the time (probably no more than a regain from loss around 10hp from what I read). It all depends on the stock bov or bpv you have. You don't need to buy a synapse to gain high end power, any decent bov/bpv would work. The thing about synapse though is supposedly its one of the most responsive bovs in the market.

You are pretty much on the money with that statement. Synapse took hks's piston actuated bov design and improved it. The hks ssqv and the synapse bov are both piston actuated, but the hks still relies on a diaphragm to close the piston. The thing is that the diaphragm weakens with time. Ask the op, he had an ssqv and with time the bov was slower to release the excess boost pressure causing compressor surge. The synapse relies on a boost/vacuum signal to cause it to open/close. Along as you have a strong boost/vacuum source, the synapse will not weaken its ability to relive pressure.
On the money. I have never heard or read that somebody claimed that it added 20hp. That would be ludicrous regardless of the BOV... unless you made one that sprayed NOS intermittenly. As far as the other forums, I haven't because I have been lazy to do so on 6Crew and Mazda 6 Club. As far as Mazda Speed Forums, my post count is not high enough to start or even view the FS threads. (jerkit) Either way, if I don't sell it by the time that I get my school refund and/or income tax refund, I will use it on my new cx7.
