Well, I had 48000 miles, clutch was dying, rear end squeaks returning again, huge windshield crack, braking thump, horrible stuttering (probably clutch related) and some odd buzzing coming from the tires. But I still loved the car. The MSP is a BLAST to drive. Funnest car ever, so quirky and...

Ha, great that you came back. The MSP is a blast to drive. I consider selling it sometimes but then again, its too much fun.

Damn, that sucks pretty bad. I have a hard time believing that it would get flooded that bad but then again norcal gets some crappy weather sometimes.

Nice car, In the future I look forward to doing that with CF. Cullen at **********.com is an awesome guy. Let him know that you are interested in his parts and company and he will be happy to send you a banner to put on your car. You are local so I'm sure he would be even more happy.

yep I've got a couple dings from inconsiderate bastards

hmmm. That sucks. It just comes down to money, the company doesn't get any more profit out of our car, so they stopped caring.

Is this a real thread?

Well... A VTEC/EBC fuel timing controller with a lcd screen that shows satellite tv with a free subscription to HBO and playboy and a 5th injector thrown in would be nice. But hey, I'm willing to do without HBO.

All I can say is Mazda did the best they could given the time and budget. I'm not complaining much. My car gets oohs and ahhs and all the problems that come with it can be fixed with little effort and money. Spend 1000 and the car will be just like it should have been all along.

Welcome to the forum. You've made a good choice. This is the best car for the money, especially 12,900. Good luck and have fun!

Wow. Thanks. Wow. Custom, you surely are awesome. I think a large part of my problem was because I bought the IC second hand rather than buying from you.

Hey Jersey, if you want to change the title to "CustomMSP SMIC fitment Issues" I'd be more than happy. I do agree that the title is way too harsh.

I've gotta admit, the Custom SMIC core is huge. That is definitely the largest possible core that could fit in its place. I'm going to go to a hardware store and buy some washers to make the fan sit more flush one of these days.

I do have to point out that Turbohoses posts a .5 pressure drop and Customs posts a 1.1 So everyone here who says the gains are the same are a little off base. People sat here and yelled at me to do the research but everyone here is saying that Turbhoses "might" be "just as good" when the...

Of course the heatsoak is still "there" but I drive it like a madman on a hot day and with the stocker it took what felt like an hour before I had any power at all. With customs SMIC the heatsoak is there, but the power is not sucked away from the car completely, moreover, it only takes a bout 2...

Let me apologize for posting this prior to letting Custom know, I just want the fitment issue to be more clear to everyone. I did a few searches and still did not find anything regarding that issue.

Look, I did research this product. I did not read EVERY thread but I read the install thread, the GB thread, and the thread when Jersey got it put in his car. I worked with ArrestYellowMSP yesterday, ask him what he thinks. The pictures in the install thread DO NOT show the fitment issue. In his...

Yes, I plan to PM him. What I'm saying is, I'm not particularly happy that in all their threads they say "fits great" "30 min install" I'm also saying that the performance is great. It is fantastic, nothing to complain about.

CustomMSP SMIC fitment issues After returning from a 4 hour SMIC install... I paid 400 bucks for the SMIC, I knew turbohoses would have been better quality, but I thought that saving 200 bucks would be cool. After removing the fan and hardpipes, I placed the intercooler in, and it DOES NOT SIT...

SMIC (Side mount intercooler) Is the way to go. Frees up a buttload of power, is a bolt on, and will make the car run pretty much the way you want it to. I recommend it. Cullen at ********** may have a couple SMICs left if not then contact CustomMSP for his SMIC. Both run 450-600 dollars.
