    Oil Capacity

    You are right, finally someone looking at the simple things. Why keep the oil capacity the same for the turbo vehicle. Mazdaspeed=Mazdaweed, because that was what they were smoking. After the oil comes from the block it goes straight to the turbo and drops to the sump to be picked up again...

    My bad, I didn't answer you. I have B&G S3 coilover suspension. It's a softer ride than stock so I'm not used to it.

    I can understand about the pissy mood. No worries, when it rains it pours. But yeah I'm bugging my friend to get me a firewire cable so I can put up the video. That is all I have from the show. Or s***, I'll just hopefully find someone with a digital camera and take some pics of everything...

    It's actually my car, the updated version. The lighting does make it look kinda weird but it's still spicy orange. I've had some little changes here and there in the engine bay. Auto Sport Concepts in Lakeside, CA did the work. I don't have more pictues but have video that I will put up very...

    Reversing Fan Push/Pull

    As long as you don't block your main air source like I did then you'll be fine. I don't see the advantages of switching it. The driver fan is for the radiator and dinky stock i/c, the passenger fan is for the a/c. I have a thick i/c, piping, condensor, and 2 1" core aluminum radiator to go...

    MSP coilovers

    Yay!!! I just got a set of S3 coilovers from B&G suspension. They will be installed tomorrow night late so I'll try and get pics up as soon as I can. These aren't cheap retail but we'll see the quality when they are on. Later.

    And then the bass was gone...

    The sub is running 8 ohms which isn't what it should be. I went out and got a $50 JL 8W0 new and running 4 ohms how it's supposed to be. I'm almost done dealing with mazda. Hopefully my engine management deal goes through.

    HKS-RSR-FALKEN-VOLK at Qualcomm-7-25

    Well, I own one of em but I wasn't there. I had to work so my "cousin" had it for the weekend and took it there. He met the other msp owner and got his #. I'm not sure if he is on this board but I'll give him a call. later.

    My 1/8 mile times

    Thanks for the info and help. I appreciate it. Maybe it's my driving or what but 9.8 on a hot day isn't bad for ME. Next time I'll let someone else drive my car to see what's up. Also remember I'm not sure what boost I'm running, I thought it was @ 6.5 but I want a real gauge to see what it's...

    My 1/8 mile times

    The 10.5's were in a stadium parking lot. My tire pressure was around 42psi, unfortunately I didn't know that @ the time. All the launches I had were just the the tires spinning. But I've seen people get anywhere from 14.9 to 15.6 in the quarter with the msp stock. That is from other board...

    Possibly a new way to make power

    I have the same issue with the super duper unbelievable richness, stalling, & stubling with the fmic stuff. Moving the maf to that position will only make it worse. It should throw off the sensor even more and cause more problems.

    my ******* car got broken into

    Well I think I was the one who went through a break in first. Then someone shot the 1/4 panel. Oh well, there will always be haters everywhere. I moved to a "better" neighboorhood and some kid spit @ my car the other day. But that is what insurance is for and that is why my deductible has...

    My 1/8 mile times

    Thanks mang. The celica could of got a wicked custom turbo kit for that amount. He is putting down 190 to the wheels also, soon he'll learn. I'm no pro but at least I can almost keep my reaction times .5-.6's. That guy was sleeping at the line. I'm happy with the 9.8-.9's. @ the Q stock I...

    The suspension is decent. It could use some work though :)
