I would actually be perfectly content with a Mazda5 that gets to 6o in 7.2 seconds. Bummer they never added that update they talked about though.

Would definitely consider adding a Mazda5 when we get to Florida but recall thinking it seemed underpowered when it came out so will have to come back to this forum in the Mazda5 section to learn how to resolve that :-)

Thanks and glad to hear it. Lived in California before moving to Oregon and they put your car through what seemed to be pretty thorough emissions tests every year. The car I bought spent time in Washington and has odometer readings from emissions tests there on its Autocheck report so I guess...

Thanks! That's very helpful. Anything specific I should be looking for in a header? A brand I should be looking out for? Not sure I'll ever go forced induction. Just go step by step with other things while keeping it naturally aspirated. You know how this goes though. Time will tell. Living...

Thanks Domo and Brian! Found a guy that sells the MP3 ECU flash for $150 if I give him my ECU in return. Guessing that means he re-programs them. Fair deal? Figure I'll still get a K & N filter anyway it doesn't really cost anything over time and stay with that for now. Will look at a new rear...

I wanted to put a WANTED ad in the classifieds but didn't see an option to do that so sorry to post this here. I am looking for the factory roof rack cross bars for my Protege5. I have the tracks so just need to cross bars and attachment pieces. If anyone has any they'd be interested in...

Do you still have it? Thanks for letting me know.

Does anybody posting that they had these cross bars for sale or trade still have them? I have a Protege5 with the rails but no rack and would really like the factory cross bars. Thanks for any leads.
