plug gaps just don't change like that on their own! If you did'nt drop the plug or bang it after taking it out of the head, then something is wrong with the picture. DO run a comp test on all 4 cylinders, and check them against specs. It's strange.

OK Spoolin'. What is the realistic HP gain with your Stage 1 in an MP5. No mods except an axle-back HKS exhaust and grounding kit. (does it NEED any others not in the kit) Altitude 800 feet Recommended octane?

Please define the differences.

Spool states that the stage 1 turbo at 4.5 psi boost will attain 160whp. BEGI/FM states that their turbo 6 psi boost will attain 167 whp Question is whether the extra 7 hp is worth an extra $1000. What do you think?

Anyone know why fly'in miata gets $1000 more than spool for their stage one turbos? They seem comparable with regard to hp increase (190 or so at the crank)

Thanks guys. When in doubt.....do nothing. That's where I am now.

Just don't want one if I can get a Blower. No turbo lag.

Looking for a source for a SuperCharger for a 2003 P5. No turbos please.

Looking for a source for a blower for a 2003 Protege' 5. No turbo's please. Just a good old fashioned belt driven SuperCharger. Any info is appreciated.

Show us a picture of the 2003 and the 2003.5 wheel spokes.

What is the life of your Injen CAI filter element?

What is the difference between the 2003 and the 2003.5 P5's

Does you Injen CAI make any noise after the engine shuts down? Mine sounds like it is still "sucking" air. Kinda strange.

matthew, I know you mentioned pumping the brakes a few times before. If there is NO ABS does it matter. I did it anyway as per your prior instructions. Just curious So the battery disconnect does not matter before or after the install...as long as it is before the startup...right?

Any problem disconnecting the - battery terminal after the installation...but before starting the car? The idea is to re-program the oxygen sensor correct?
