I got all that, including the turbo, from Extreme Machine
I was the first Proteg , so they developed those parts on my car.

I didn't run it on a dyno yet. I only did some run with a G-Tech. I got 190whp, a 1/4 mile time of 14.6 at 101mph and a 6.4 sec for the 0-60mhp run. If we consider a drivetrain lost of approximately 15%, that give me around 220hp at the crank.
The 1/4 run was done with a smooth start. With hot tire and more agressive start, it can be better than that. But I want to keep my tire for autocross race.

Thats a good run Stou, 14.6 this is at 8psi right. Still no timing being retarded huh, and still no detination, I would say that is a real good run. How hard was the car to launch? Was there a lot of spinning of the tires.(argh) I hate that, or wheel hop.
I have gotten rid of my wheel hop so far with the awr motor mounts. I hope it stays that way when I put the turbo on.

Thanks Mike!
Yes, it's at 8psi, no timing change and no detonation. Like we already discuss on another post, there's already a knock sensor on our cars.
The car is not realy hard to start. You only have to control the spinning. Since I have much more power than a stock MP3, I got spinning instead of wheel hop. Since my car is turbo, I don't get wheel hop..... but more spinning!
If you start normaly on 1rst gear and then suddenly put your foot on the floor, it start spinning like hell I love that!!!

I get really nasty wheel hop in 1st and 2nd gear along with spinning melting rubber:mad:
Ahhhh very good pont Stou!
I really read need mounts, a LSD and that should solve the problem

Do you think that the Mazdaspeed LSD will fit our cars. I think that there is a good chance. Because the inly change that I am seeing with the Mazda speed and the MP3 other than the obvious things, Is the LSD, and I think they lowered the compression to 9:1. Do not quote me on that.
Yep! It is up for sale...Metal Mp5 let me know if you need any details on the kit...you can also search the older threads made by Stou about the kit...
