defoul mode
I was talking to a service advisor about it, and he said that there was one, and how to put it in the defoul mode. Also all the Mazda dealerships are supposed to do it on the turbo model vehicles as part of the quality check.
Well...
It's actually a MS6, and it's smoked on and off for the last 10K. When it was cover they couldn't get it to smoke in the shop. It does it occasionally, and i can't even get it to smoke on a consistent basis. From what i have learned about mine, and problem in general with the k04 it's...
I found out what the part numbers are on the MS6/ MS3. the numbers depend on the manufacture date of the car, but both the turbos are having problems.
L3R9L3700F (most 06 models, and some 07 models.
L3Y11370Za (replacement for the 06 turbo, and OE for most 07 models)

AWD dyno
I know of one out in Provo. I'n not sure exactly. My friend gibby tuned his WRX there, and dyno time was reasonable. I'll talk to him, and find out place, and how much.
Smoking Turbos
Before you guys say something bad about a MS6 think about this. The MS6 has the same smoking turbo problem with exhaust done. This doesn't mean that the turbo is bad or good. With my experience generally with turbos they all get blow by one way or another. Hitachi-warner turbo...
I contacted a local performance shop(SLS Performance, an Authorized Vendor of this forum), and if I can get enough people that would want to upgrade their rear diff mounts. I'm looking for at least 75 people that would want to upgrade this serious weak link. Not sure as for cost on this will be...

Manual trans hole.
There should be 2 fairly large bolts on the firewall side of the trans. If I remember correctly you can also fill it from the speedometer cable (that only if the cable comes straight out of the top of the trans. Back to the 2 bolts. they should be about 6 inches from the...
A possible Solution
I hate to say it but some of the issues you might be having might be the MAF sensor. I've come across this problem in most cars that are equipped with a MAF, and with an oil based air filter.
P.S.
Stay away from D. Dahle. Most of the work they can't figure out the send...
