I was reading on some other forums that were saying the proteges have 2 cats. I have a straight pipe after the turbo where I believe the o2 sensor and cat is suppose to be. But its just a straight pipe with a bung for the o2 to plug into. I'm throwing a p0421 code. Which is the cat warming up...

I have a turbo. MSP #1827

Still can't find any spark plugs that aren't already gapped at my local AutoZone and oreillys. Unless I've been looking at the wrong ones. Help? Edit: So I bought the NGK 3271 spark plugs at AutoZone for $13 and some change. And I just tapped the bottom of the spark plug until it was able to be...

My car just through a p0421 code. Fix one code, another pops up. Don't have extra cash laying around for a new one. Anyone know how to do this step by step? It's my daily and I've been reading if I keep driving with my pre cat clogged I'll go zoom zoom boom. DONT WANT THAT TO HAPPEN If...

Thanks man!

Street unit is the site I was referring to.

*************** I'm gonna buy mine eventually with parts from these guys. Best prices around on name brand s***.

I have it from wastegate to turbosmart boost control, to factory T fitting. And from the T fitting one is connected to my boost gauge the other to my intake mani.

I just picked up the car about 2 weeks ago. Have been looking for a MSP for years. Finally got my hands on one. So I haven't had the time to pull out the plugs to check em for even burn yet. Don't even know which one to buy from autozone. My boost gauge sit just right under 20. But when I drive...

Well, it holds air. I blew into the line that's connected to my boost controller. Is that the right one?

ok ill have to try that. my woman took my car to work without my permission. lol

Where exactly would you hear the air coming through? I can't imagine hearing it coming out of the wga or tubes. Confused lol

Well, I wanna know if its the factory wastegate or an aftermarket one. Cause my boost doesn't sit steadily at 7. It jumps from 7-5. Or sometimes it wont past 5. I also have a CEL but its for a VTCS. I don't know if the vtcs would affect my boost jumping. Cause if it doesn't and my wastegate with...

Also. Does anybody else know what the barcode on the wastegate is? Mines showing numbers 1011-1540 52111 02118

Ok. Yeah cause I was like, buy a forge bpv for $150. Or for $50 more I can get a fmic kit that has a bov already.

I have a real hks bpv that's just sitting in my garage. I'm thinking about the the kit with the fake hks ssqv just because the pipes are smaller and in more pieces rather then the other one where I would probably have to cut it.

Alright cool. I've been looking on ebay for some fmic kits. The ones from cxracing are friggin ridiculous expensive. So i found these http://www.ebay.com/itm/2-5-Aluminum-FMIC-Intercooler-Piping-Kit-Purple-Type-RS-Turbo-Blow-Off-Bov-/171012400926?fits=Submodel%3AMazdaspeed%7CModel%3AProtege...

Alright cool. Does it hold more boost? Like if I wanted to go to 8 with supporting mods? What if I just unbolted the intake pipes and pulled off the whole manifold and turbo to do it?

I still got the factory piping. Been trying to find a good deal on hard pipes. Haven't found any so far.

You wouldn't happen to have a photo of this would you? Curious as to how it looks like.
