    OH NO!!! engine blown!

    That's funny because all of us who have blown our motors have said the same thing," I am running 15 lbs of boost with no problems!" This should be the MSP Motto

    OH NO!!! engine blown!

    Everyone will blow up their engine in the speed it is just a matter of time. bad rods. If you order forged internals be prepared to wait a long time. I have waited 14 weeks and the rods do not fit into the block. I had to overnight them to Oliver at a cost of 50 bucks. This sucks because...

    My dealer = Moron's

    My dealer has been nothing but good to me, including transmissions, and others parts even with mods. I send everyone there. Only one of my friends had a bad experience.

    powercoating the raceing harts

    I don't have any close up's of the wheels. Just paint them and try it, you will be suprised. The epoxy paint only comes in white and black. I also did the racing hart in orange to match the car. The wheels are dirty in the pics, but they are the only ones I have. Normally they are very...

    powercoating the raceing harts

    You can get the stripper at Pep Boys. I attached a pic. Just make sure you wash the wheels with dish soap before you paint them, this will remove the oil. The paint last for about six months before it flakes.

    powercoating the raceing harts

    I did mine white. Go to Wal mart and buy some appliance epoxy black spray paint and paint one first to see if you like it. If you don't just strip it with aircraft stripper and to will be back to stock. I had mine painted for a year and everyone thought they were powdercoated.

    engine blowing?

    Mazda has replaced so many rods that have bent into a half moon that they can't count. People running stock boost. Believe me it takes nothing to distroy our jiffy pop motor. First you bend the rod in cyclinder 4 then it takes nothing to punch five or so holes in the motor. All the people...

    I choose to cut the spring in the back to level out the car. The springs are power coated purple, but you can't see them on the car. I got mine from Apex they were about $210.00. Ask for Kenny.

    tanabe DF-210

    I have them on my car. Everyone is suprised how much it rides like stock. I had to remove the rears and cut off one more coil, but is rides just like stock. It lowered my car 2 inches all the way around.

    Forged rods?

    You have to remove the head. The oilers will also hinder you from installing the pistons. Pistons from the top.

    im desperate for!

    The Apex pipe is well worth $300.00. It increased my torque substantually. Plus the service is a cut above. This is the best improvement I installed on my car. You can really hear the turbo spool up.

    FS oil clearences and torque specs

    Yes, that one, it is $160.00 of useless crap if you are rebuilding your motor. I just don't want someone else to buy this manual expecting the info to properly build you motor.

    FS oil clearences and torque specs

    I bought the factory Mazda Protege manual and it includes one page about assembly of the lower end of the motor. No torque specs or oil clearences. Can someone help me out? I already did a search with no luck. New block aftermarket pistons and rods stock size.

    About MSP boost and engine

    I turned my rod into power in cyclinder number 4, put five holes in the motor, and bent the other three rods into a half moon shape. My motor blew at 8 psi leaving a light to go get something to eat. The rods suck!!!!! This is the worst Mazda I have ever owned. My 89MX-6 turbo is ten times...
