    2008 CX-7 able to run 87 octane

    Not sure if this has been posted, but I just found out today that the 2008 Mazda CX-7 has been recalibrated to run regular 87 octane. they recommend premium, but running regular will be ok for '08. This info was in a new Mazda Fuel news letter magazine we get at the dealership.

    Advice needed on a half decent sub setup..

    not sure if i would consider myself an audiophile. my last car did have 1800 watts though. keep in mind it is a shallow mount sub. needs minimal space to be efficient. the box is plenty big for the sub. i didn't want anything real boomy. i have the gain at just under halfway and it compliments...

    MZR being upgraded to 2.5L for 2009

    haha yeah i know its a crazy thought. the new g37 has all wheel steering i think. but yeah this is just a mule. remember the first pics of the next mazda6. it was under the same sheet metal as the current model. i would expect looks to mimic the next mazda6, only smaller of course. mazda is...

    MZR being upgraded to 2.5L for 2009

    that new 2.5 will also be a base engine in the next mazda6. 175-180 horsepower will be a nice jump. honestly mazda needed that bump to keep it in line with other cars. with that being said, lets go ahead and start the speculation of the next generation mazdaspeed3 with the 2.5 DISI turbo. i am...

    Back to stock Bypass

    it is the hybrid design. it backfired daily but they were small. it let out a big one about once a week. i have it set up just like SU said. it held boost well and sounded great, but drivability was worse. it would backfire with any shift under 4k.

    Back to stock Bypass

    well it will be here soon. and i cant wait. i should have gone with forge in the first place from what i have read.

    Back to stock Bypass

    yeah thats what i was thinking also, but it still seems a little quiter than it was when i first put on the intake. how does it drive with the forge? turbosmart was backfiring, bucking, but it sounded cool!

    Back to stock Bypass

    After a loud backfire today, I switched my turbosmart back to the original bypass vlave. Since switching, I have noticed smoother running and driving. But, it doesn't seem to be as loud as it used to be. I can hear it a little, but nothing like it used to be. Seems to be running fine. This is...

    What kind of BOV are you running?

    i have tried everything. even called SU on what to do. they gave me instructions and all, but it still burps on any shift under about 4k-45k rpm. so i am just doing away with it.

    What kind of BOV are you running?

    ordered forge bpv today. i have the turbosmart now, and just can't put up with the burps from the exhaust. might be in the market place later in the week.

    trading in my MS3 for.....

    that black one is kinda cool looking. and if my research is right, the rumor is a 2.0 DISI turbo in the MPS version. so approx. 230 horses in a 2100-2200lbs car. that could be fun.
