We'll get to 10. There is already 4 more people that are about to jump on board.

Correct. The sooner the better on deposits. As soon as we hit 10 the ball gets rolling on the machine work.

1. Yes, but keep in mind that those are just accelerometer numbers (which are good for back to back comparison between two parts, but aren't as exact as a dyno is for real world overall power). I set up all of the settings on the unit the last time I dyno'd, and was able to get it close to what...

GB is live. http://www.mazdas247.com/forum/showthread.php?123853471-505-V3-Billet-Intake-Manifold-*GB*&p=6434585#post6434585

By far the finest part to ever come out of the 505 lab, the new V3 Billet Intake Manifold is the worthy successor to the original 505 Sheet Metal Intake Manifold. Over 2 years and thousands of dollars were spent reimagining and refining this piece from the ground up. The end result is a nearly...

GB thread is basically typed up... waiting on one little finishing touch here before I post it (should be up before I head to work tomorrow).

Well I honestly wasn't expecting this much improvement, but here goes: Average peak HP before - 232 Average peak HP after - 246 And I'm an average of 2 tenths faster 0-60. The margin of error on the peak hp at each spot was +/- 3hp. Boost for all runs was spiking to 10 and holding at 8...

Stock O-rings are the ticket. Car runs perfect and feels great. The lot where I did 2 sets of my before pulls is closed, so full testing will have to wait til morning. The quick burn around the block felt awesome though.

Internal volume on the plenum is almost identical. The main reason it looks so much larger is because it's almost 2.5 times thicker. And yes the JayRacing rail will work perfectly... it is actually what this was modeled with. :)

Sorry to say this, but as common as it is for the stock exhaust mani to crack, the "infamous hesitation" has nothing to do with it.

Welp... The injector O-rings I was using on the old manifold are not sealing up with the new one. (bang) I am hoping that the dealer has some in stock for me to pick up tomorrow morning, and if not then I'm going to get them coming from Amazon for a Wednesday delivery. In a way this is...

Yeah pricing is finally all squared away except for the ceramic coating and polishing options. I'll shoot ya a PM and we can rap about it.

Speaking of manifolds... my gen 3 just got finished today. Road testing starts this weekend. (rockon)

(whistle) (rockon)

Pics of the finished mani will be up Thursday evening. (rockon)

So here's a little project I did over the past couple weeks... After losing control in a patch of sand on a hard right during a spirited run with my buddy Colin in his GTI, I had the choice of smashing into an oncoming car on the left or putting it into the curb on the right. Picking the latter...

Yeah definitely one of the drawbacks of running an internal gate.
