So I follow Might Car Mods, as it's entertaining and arguable informative. They've done a spot on "CAI mith-busted" and pretty much, according to their tests show a 1% increase in HP. Just wanted to get the forums take on it, link: CIA MYTHBUSTED I'm thinking about getting an SRI, but now I...

I had a 2011 Mazda2, which was a great car, but I wanted more. In the price range of a MS3 I don't think there is anything that's turbo charged as a hatch. WRX or a Rallyart are the next closest in North America. I was originally going to go with an SI, but you seem to get a lot more with the...

I'm no expert, and this is only a shot in the dark, could it be your fullpump doesn't have the upgraded internals? I've read that you need to have some supporting mods before you add too much more HP. Doesn't seem like you've done enough that it would matter at this point. So, yeah smelling fuel...

Looks great!

How old is your son?

I think the floor mats is comes with have the Mazdaspeed logo on it. From what I was told, and the mats I received they are just the standard rubber mazda all season floor mats. Trust no one, that's a good moto, imo

Grats on the MS3, just got mine 2 weeks ago or so. I got two fobs, but I also have the tech package, so I expect you would get two keys. I did get the all weather mats, other than that pretty it much comes with everything. I went from a Mazda 2 to the MS3, it is AWESOME! Cheers, Shawn

*Update Just talked with Corksport, they're having a new batch of pully's made. I guess this batch may have had an issue. Either way this is being warrantied and they're covering all shipping. So, CS has stepped up, which is awsome.Great company. Cheers, Shawn

Far from a machanic, but working on it :D. Yeah there are three screws but they've been welded, so I don't think there is really any other option.

Hey Guys, So, got me a OBDII reader, erased the errors, change the plugs. All is good on that end. Still had the noise from the CS crankshaft pulley. Took that off, and what do you know there is play between the main part and the black ring around it. Really don't know what the componenets are...

Well I live in Vancouver, so it's rather humid. This all also started to happen after a filled up, so I'm also wondering if I got a fuel below or above grade. Pretty sure it was regular. I'm going to hit Canadian Tire tomorrow they have this on sale: OBDII Code READER Think I'll just reset the...

So looking at grabbing some spark plugs online the manual says: Spark Plug number: ZJ46 18 110*1, ZJY6 18 110 When I go to a site like JEGS I get a massive list of Sparkplugs, I can't find the ones with the correct Spark Plug number. Any suggestions?

Well the light has gone out, all is now good in the world. Guess the battery reset it? I'll necro this thread if it happens again in the future.

Thanks cclngthr, Is the misfire causing any internal damage if I don't have the sparkplugs looked at right away? Cheers, Shawn

Thanks for all the great info. I just got back from the dealer and this is what I have on their diagnostic sheet: CHECKED FOR CODES P0300 RANDOM MISFIRE DETECTED/POSSIBLE FROM AFTERMARKET COLD AIR INTAKE OR AFTERMARKET CRANKSHAFT CRANK PULLY RECOMMEND REMOVAL AND RE-CHECK. I did disconnect that...
