SO, back in January, got the code, they pulled the PCV valve, worked great. Got the code again a month ago, replaced the gas cap gasket, code went away. Got the code AGAIN this morning, PCV valve failed again. They replaced it under warrenty only because the tech said he should have replaced...

Anyone know what happened to the web page from the Northern Virginia Great Falls Meet back in July. Between work and going TDY twice, I forgot all about it, finally remembered it this morning, and the web page is dead. Never saw any pictures or anything from it. WTH, over?

Seeing as I have come into an unexpected boon, I've decided its probably time to replace the stock shifter for a short shifter. The question is, which one? Pros and cons, please add your thoughts and experiences. COBB: Its the most expensive option, most adjustable, and, hell, its from COBB so...

OK, this isnt about my Speed, but figured I could still get expert help here. (jacked)(jacked) Bought wifey a Chrysler Pacifica 18 months ago. Orphan 07, 4.0, AWD. Not a bad rig for trucking the family long distances down the highway. She has been having REALLY crappy milage for a while...

OK, anyone done the spin on oil filter conversion and added the oil gauge sender adapter to their speed? I am about to pull the trigger on this from PG, as in getting the $100 oil conversion and gauge sender adapter plate but have hesitated because I'm concerned about clearance. There isnt but...

Sigh...Finally got the car in the shop to diagnose the funky sound coming from the front left corner. I would have wagered large sums of money that it was the wheel bearing crapping out, its a sound I have heard before. Turns out that its just the tires. ALL FOUR OF EM! The tires that started...

OK, its official, the Paypal has been sent, and thanks to Pro5, Im getting my Forge BPV. NOW the eternal, Im sure much debated, and often searched for question: Spring and shim combo. Based on what Ive seen on Forge webpage, for a car with just the AEM/MSCAI with air straightener, the best...

OK, seen plenty of vids, ppl taking about Brake boosting. Cant find anything anywhere about how to actually do it. Ive experimented with a few things trying to duplicate the rocketship acceleration I have seen in vids provided by this driving technique, but cant seem to pull it off. Anyone...

OK, turbo timer works to allow car to cool off the oil a bit before shutdown so it doesnt screw up the turbo over time. Seeing as this is a temperature issue, is it possible to somehow connect a turbo timer to a oil temp gauge and set the turbo timer to shut the motor down once the oil temp...

SO, my AEM CAI arrived today, after a week long journey courtesy of UPS from California, via eBay (paid $105 for it, counting shipping, good deal. NOW STOP SNIPING ME ON EVERY FORGE BPV ON THERE!!!). Ahem Took me right on two and a half hours to get installed, had the most trouble with the...

ALLCON: Look at this. Im a n00b when it comes to turbo cars, and its called a "wastegate actuator". Looks suspiciously like a bypass valve...

OK, the car is in the shop for the next 10 days to 3 weeks (got backed into in the parking lot at work, caught on camera, guy didnt want to fess up until I started getting beligerent...LONG story) so I'm taking this time to do some research on a few things. Just picked up an AEM CAI with...

So, was trolling ebay and craigslist looking to see if there were any Forge bypass valves or Dash Hawks for sale and stumbled across listings for a used Fujita CAI and brand new HPS CAI. Searched and couldnt find anything here on the HPS, so I'm trying to find out if anyone has one of these...

Just like the title says, I need some opinions before I go melt some faces. I have said in other threads about how I was happy with the shop I had been taking my Speed3 to. Well, I couldn't justify $77 for an oil change right now given that my wife is out of work, current economy, etc. So, I...

Topic says it all. Anyone got pics of the MSCAI actually installed in their engine bay? Im asking because for the life of me I cant get my HID ballast on the driver side fully secured, right now its sitting on whatever piece of something hard is below the fuse box and the driver side...

So, I've got some cash to spare and am getting Apexcone/DDM HIDs. The question now is standard, slims, or the Raptors. I am leaning towards the standards, I dont really see the point of paying the extra 15% for the slims, but if I get the Raptors I can afford 2 kits, one for the heads and one...

I have a question or few about the whole BPV/BOV thing. Seems to me that Mazda designed the car specifically for a Bypass, even if the actual unit seems to be considered to be a hunk of night soil. The rage seems to be to convert to a Blowoff, usually the HKS Super Sequential that every online...

Forgive me if this has already been asked and answered, but I couldnt find out how to do it. If there is already a thread, link please... I saw on my way home from work this morning a regular Mazda3 5 door with the fogs on, but not the head lights. Seeing as I am unable to do this on my Speed3...

Hello all. I purchased a Oh My God Pull Me Over NOW Red Speed3 yesterday after a co-worker of mine and I were talking about them over lunch. Got a Sport with a few of the toys, its more then enough and has everything my old one had (had a red 04 Mazda3 Sport with everything but the nav system...
