Got 'em today....Installed 'em today....They look awesome...Makes the Speed6 look even more sharp and clean. Thanks feejay

Sent you a pm feejay

troubleshooting is what I have been trying to do but being over in germany with a us spec car sucks....the auto shops on base dont have anything I can use...ie a scan tool, vacuum pump. and the german shop tried to tell me that they dont have a german car to compare the mazdaspeed to and I felt...

It started running crappy on my drive back from poland in the heavy slushy snowy autobahn and the MAF was my first thought....and it was dirty covered with road grime and salt that was sucked thru my fujita CAI (which is why I got the cobb short ram a little bit late tho) so i bought a...

HMMMM thats a new thought I didn't have.... I bought a remanufactured one thru RockAuto.com. and like you said it looks identical.. how much did you pay for the OEM MAF? If only I heard from you earlier haha. thank you

Thanks again, you have been hella helpful... I am going to the shop tomorrow (hopefully) and see if they have a vacuum pump so I can test my WGA and possibly the other vacuum lines to see if there is maybe a tiny hole or crack that i cant see.... I will post an update so if it works and anyone...

thanks forzda, (I keep forgetting to say actuator) Mine actually isn't silver anymore...it's kinda rusty. the main 2 bolts like you said are pretty accessable. my concern is the actuator rod. looking at it, I should only have to remove the heat shield from the top of the turbo...I hope... now...

Bump!! anyone ever replaced the oem wastegate? or know where I can find a "how-to"? been searching the web and nothing comes up

Thanks Forzda I replied to u on the other forum

the problem comes up in 4-6th gear at about 3500 rpm and i drove it here for 6 months with no issue

yep checked that hose when i replaced the solenoid valve that it is connected to.. the lines are not dry or cracked and look in great shape

yep that is one of the possibilites that I tested...I bought a new wastegate control solenoid valve and put it on yesterday and still the same issue... I have been tossing the idea of a cobb ap around but worried it wont fix the problem (thats a $600 risk i am hesitant to try)

Nope..the car had the fujita when I bought it

Short story.. I bought my MS6 in Feb 09..it had a fujita cai and nothing else.. It threw a cel once but it was cuz I hit a puddle in a rain storm. I replaced the bad filter and a month later installed a cobb tip...now comes my dilemma... I got transferred to germany in june 09 and no problems...

I dont have a hydroshield or anything to block the snow, slush, road salt and other grime associated with winter roads from clogging up my filter. I just want a little less hassle until summertime. then I will put my CAI back on.
