    FS: Hypertech Tuner Part # 62003

    2010 Speed3 boost limitation with new factory ECU upgrade?

    Hi guys, I brought my 2010 speed3 to the dealer last week and as soon as I got out and went on the highway I noticed that it seems like boost is not holding 15 psi, specially on 5th and 6th gear, starting at around 3500rpm, until the redline. I noticed that if I release the gas and push on it...

    Turbocharging my Protege 5

    Good to know for the pulley from someone who is using one that it's a good mod and that the electrical supply to the car is still good. I'll definitely buy one from corksport. About the insurance I had already call and asked, it's 300$ something more / year, so it's still in the "acceptable"...

    Turbocharging my Protege 5

    Thanks for the replies. Brian_K, thanks for the info and the link. P-Funk!, I know I have to sell these parts since they won't fit if I go turbo... as far as a MS3, I already thought about that but insurance rates here in Canada are extremely high for these cars. I never had a single claim and...

    Turbocharging my Protege 5

    Guys, I would like to make my Pro5 a bit faster. I already have AEM CAI, MP3 ECU, Magnaflow High-Flow Cat+ Full Catback exhaust, OBX headers but I want a little more out of this car. It has 76K miles on it and I have approx. 2000$ to put on parts. I know I have to go turbo, and would like to go...

    stiff shifter

    Any silicon-based lucricant is NOT recommended if the car will be driven in conditions below 32F or 0C since it will freeze on cold weather!

    Fuel sending unit

    If you have the same problem as I had, remove the back seats ( just pull them they will remove easily ) and you should find a service plate right there. Remove the 4 bolts and you will be able to access the fuel pump that is on the top of the tank. If you see gas, your problem is probably like...

    Does MP3 ecu make a difference?

    Yes it is only for the 2.0L with manual tranny. I had the mod for a bit over a year now and for the price I say go for it. The car runs MUCH smoother and I put 91 in it... no knocking whatsoever, runs perfect. Never tried 87 but mazda engineers said that the MP3 needed premium fuel and there's a...

    Fuel sending unit

    Update on the repair... The sending unit was OK. When I brought the car the guy unmounted the fuel pump assy and said : who ordered that sending unit?!?!? And told the guy he was stupid right in front of me lool. The mechanic took Epoxy and put a whole tube on the top of the pump assy, had 2...

    catback exhaust

    With the OBX header the magnaflow drones a lot... I had to put a flexible of about 8" to remove some stress on the exhaust between the headers and the cat and now it's just perfect IMO.
