BUMP Does anyone know these measurements or know where I can get them? It would save me a lot of hassle. Also, do our cars have a manual like a Chilton or Bently manual? I used to have a MkII Jetta and the Bently manuals were like the holy grail. Thanks. Mike

Does anyone know the turbo intake diameter and the throttle body diameter? Is it 2.5"? Thanks. Mike

I am putting together a FMIC kit right now and I was wondering if anyone has clocked (rotated) their turbo to make it easier to fit the pipes? It seems like this would make life a whole lot easier and I'm just checking to see if anyone has done it or why they haven't done it. Thanks for any...

I got Green Stuff pads from Crossover's website, they were cheaper than what the dealer wanted for stock pads and they seem to be working great for me. Mike

Thank you very much for the info. I went ahead and bought the core today and should be getting it early next week, I'll take pics when it comes in. My friend fabbed up a cardboard one just to see how much of the bumper it will take up and it should def. fill up the middle opening in the...

Ok so you guys are saying you had to cut the bumper itself, not the support or anything like that right? I am ok with trimming the inside of the bumper as long as it still stays straight and doesn't have any gaps or anything. Also, how do you take the bumper off the car? I looked in the...

As the title states, I am looking to make my own intercooler kit and I have found a pretty nice bar and plate core with these dimensions: 24" Wide/9" Tall/3" Thick I am not looking to replace or modify the bumper supports or anything and I want it to fit without very much trimming of the...

Hello, I am getting sick of the stock MSP sub so I really want to get an Infinity Kappa Perfect 12" sub (used to have one in my Jetta, loved it). My question is can the stock amp even push the Kappa Perfect or do I definitly need a new amp. If I do need a new amp, can the stock amp be used...

Tein S-Techs on my MSP have been great, good ride quality, less harsh than the stock RB springs. Drop is real nice in the front, a little higher in the back (although I think it looks good) and no rubbin. Go for it! Mike

For the past week or so I catch out of the corner of my eye that my brake light is on (in the gauge cluster, not the rear brake light) and it will come and go as it pleases. My brakes are pretty worn (44k highway miles) but I still stop fine. Does the light come on when I need to get new brake...

Will this kit stop my rear bushings from wearing out quickly and squeaking or is that a different problem altogether? My rear suspension has gotten sloppy over the past two months and is making noises like my dog's squeak toy. Thanks for any info. Mike

I have the same freakin noise and it only comes on during certain RPM's and never at idle. I just simply cannot place the noise, although I had a feeling it was coming from behind the dash, possibly involving my AutoMeter Electronic Boost Guage. Keep me updated too, I don't have time to go...

This is freaking weird. I have just discovered this buzzing noise on my car today. It does happen when throttle down slightly and under load, but seems intermittant. The thing that really bothers me is that I installed my B&M shifter and Kartboy Bushings today (which feel great btw) but now I...

Looks like somebody took a trip to Agile Auto(thumb) Nice piece though, was considering one myself. If you could PM me I'd like to get a round estimate on what something like that costs installed and tuned. Thanks in advance. Mike

I'm definitly down if we can get a group together on a Monday or Friday in June. I'm getting a new schedule at work and I'm always gonna be off those days. I'll keep checkin in on this thread. Mike

Thanks man, I'm gonna have to try to make the next meet in the area and I'll have test drives for everyone, hahah. BTW, Agile installed them, they are starting to grow on me(rockon) Mike

Thanks for the help guys, this makes me feel better. I commute so it actually feels more comfortable, I just thought maybe the guys who put em on forgot to tighten something, hahah. I love the look, that pic was from the first day they were on, so it still needs to settle a bit. I guess I...

I just recently had my MSP lowered on Tein springs and I was wondering if anyone else has noticed that the Teins are either softer spring rate wise than the Racing Beat springs, or maybe I'm going crazy? With the Racing Beat springs I was feeling every little crack in the road and it was...

I've been telling him that for a while, but to each their own. It's ok though, this summer it's getting a t3/t04 turbo put on(2thumbs) so he's not too worried about looks. Mike

Nice, Scotts a good guy. Lets invade their VW world with Mazda specific parts requests!! I got mine so early that it is the original one with the nipple for the vaccum hose onthe top, not the side. Check out pics at http://www.shocker.50megs.com. Site isn't near done but I got some of my...
