Hey guys I have been doing some searching on here, and I am stumped about something. After recently installing my AFC, I felt the need to redo my vac lines to ensure that the AFC MAP sensor is getting an accurate reading. I am also going to be installing the Zeitronix WB and I am going to also...

I dyno'd my DSM AFC and spent 4 hours tuning the hell out of it. I found a Mom and Pop dyno shop over in Crestview FL called Adam's Automotive. The owner brought me in on a Saturday when he was closed just so he could work solely on my MSP. He said he never saw one before and likes to help...

Ok guys, When I bought my hardpipes and upgraded SMIC, Cullen had suggested that since they were SS, I should consider wrapping the cold pipe to keep the heat out. Although I respect his opinion, I wanted to see if other people have done the same. Now before we start getting into the...

I have been on these forums for a long time (I can't remember how long), but anyways, for those who don't know me, I have been tweaking on this car ever since I bought it and know a few things and don't mind helping other people out with thiers as well. I am driving a Titanium MSP and am...

Ok guys in a recent thread, we were talking about relocating the MAF. Basically what happened was the other day, I popped the clutch while the car was at a dead stop and in reverse. When the car stalled, it shook and the MAF smacked the battery box with some avengence. Now it is running pig...

Ok guys, before I get beat up, let me beat you to the punch by saying that yes I picked the name "Genius" and that I deserve to be spit at for asking this question. Now, I have searched around but haven't found a straight answer. I just bought SU's HKS SSQV and it has an adjuster on the back...

I just ordered the upgraded SMIC, SSQV and hardpipes with the MAF on the pressure side. I get it in next week. I BETTER NOTICE A DIFFERENCE!!! LOL! I really wanted a FMIC, but I don't intend to cross past 9 psi, so I was convinced to go with the SMIC. Besides, I really didn't want to mess...

Hey guys, Normally I traverse the MSP forums, but I have a question that is not directly related to Mazda. It is about my Jetta. I tried going to the VW forums but noone ever seems to say very much. I just bought a Jetta dirt cheap with some probs. I managed to fix most of them (mostly...

I have a driver's side piller with two guages in it right now. I want to make my own so that I can mount a small GPS unit in it. It is hard to explain but basically I wnat to have a piller that holds a GPS unit at eye level then below that my boost guage and A/f guage. What should I use? I...

Hey I searched around and maybe I am not using the right strings so I will just flat out ask... Has anyone considered moving the SMIC to the front? If so any gains? I am bored. LMAO!

Hey guys, I found this hidden switch under the driver's side seat. I didn't know what it did, so I flipped it up and took the car for a drive. I immediately noticed significant pulling, and the A/F guage was reading dead center and the boost gauge read 15 psi!!!!!! The switch was well hidden...

This just started happening to me today... When I start to move forward, I get this knock sound. It sounds identical to the sound you get if your rotors are rusted and you try to roll for the first time after the car has been sitting. It occurs after I my clutch is halfway up and the car...

I found this site through one of the forums. They claim to be able to give access the the most recent PCM codes as long as I buy this box to connect my computer to the car. Question... is it worth it? Has anyone ever subscribed and downloaded their codes? Is this an alternative to buying a...

Ok, after about 2+ hours of searching, I know that the speed sensor wire is pin 58 on the PCM. I don't really want to dig up my carpet and screw around with the PCM. Pin 58 has to go somewhere. Can someone please tell me where to find it. I am assuming it goes up to the instrument cluster...

Ok guys, I bought a bunch of 2 inch sections and some silicone couplers. I beaded the pipes and epoxied the couplers to the pipes. Right now I just have the lower I/C pipe complete. The lower pipe uses three sections of pipe, the reason was to hopefully give a little bit of flex, however I...

Up until about 2 days ago, I was running 10 psi. When I originally upped the boost, I changed out the plugs with NGK, one step colder... can't remember the exact stock number. Over this past weekend, I decided to turn down the boost to 8 psi because I don't have forged internals and cannot...

Here is one, Back where I used to live a friend and I both bought an MSP. We both modded our cars together. More to the point, he went with a CS Power series exhaust, I went with a custom Greddy exhaust. I was able to put my O2 sensor back where it belonged but he had to move his to the...

Ok guys, Yes I am new, however, I have been reading these forums for over a year now. I have read everything I fiound regarding fuel cut in our cars. For some reason, even in cold temps some of you have cars that don't know what the definition of fuel cut is... My MSP has a Joe P FCD but...
