On this board it looks like just me w/ high octane, but over here http://forum.mazda6club.com/index.php?showtopic=44818&st=60&gopid=585434&#entry585434 there are 5 of us now (a new guy today had this problem with 93 octane) Who would we ask at Mazda to get them to add an ECU code for when/why...

Yeah, I think those fake tips are the driving force for a lot of people who want exhaust, they wouldn't be so bad if the real tips were sitting farther back like they do on the RX-8 so you can't see them right away. I really want to open up the throttle response though, I don't care too much...

Awesome. I have a shop willing to do a custom Magnaflow setup for me, but I am not sure I want a Magnaflow exhaust and with the small problems I have had pop up with the car over the last little while, I would like to keep my warrenty. Which means custom might not be an option. I need to find...

WOW.. I love the white. I wish that had been avail. when I got mine. I would get some white rims. that must be awesome with the white int.

I havn't seen the pearl one. the pics in the other thread are SWEEET.

wow.. that's the best deal I think I have heard. I lease mine for $599 CAN with Tax. I traded in my RX-8, got a decent deal, and put $4K down with the trade. I also never buy, I like to lease because I like a new car every 2 years or so, and I also write it off as a company car (which I can...

Back on topic. Has anyone done a custom exhaust on a speed6 yet?

Yeah, that's '05 numbers. The 3.9 litre V6 in the new impala is in no way a match for the V8 in the old ones.... (and I assumed it was a joke :P ) . Even the American muscle cars of today (like the new Hemi Charger) don't come close to what an old 480hp Dodge Superbee Hemi Charger could do.

I am getting the Mazdaspeed Short Shifter sometime in the next couple weeks (I hope it helps me fix my missing the up-shift to 3rd all the time). I am curious, have any of you guys heard about an AEM intake for the speed6? Somone in another forum is claiming that AEM has just released one...

lol... no... I had a supercharged DC police spec V8 350 (350ci 5.7 litre) small block Chevy engine (thumb) the same engine you would find in Mustangs, Corvettes and Camaros back then, a '78 man, we are talking REAL classic muscle (I would think you would understand, being a "ford man"). W/O a...

Actually, I had a '78 impalla from a police auction (my first car.. it cost me $250US). That Chevy V8 350 pulls pretty frickin hard. I don't know. I used to tell people to grab something out of the back seat, and when they would unstrap to and lean over the bench seat, I would floor it and...

lol.... towed :) I have a mazdaspeed car... I am in trouble.. tehee

BlkZoom and I have been trading PMs... we squashed this stuff.. please don't delete the thread. I am taking the car back this week for them to do whatever Mazda Canada asked them to do. I'll post after the visit and let you guys know if they figure something out.

like I said. I am not wanting a flame war, but your posts are 100% non-constructive. I just wish you could be either be in THIS discussion between those of us interested in solving this issue, or not be here at all. There IS something wrong that is not related to putting 87 octane gas in this...

BlkZoom... IF there are fault codes, WHY are we not getting fault codes when this TOTAL loss of power is happening? Why do you clasify it as "bitching" that we are discussing this very common problem and trying to solve the issue? "Wow you guys are incredible"... that IS talking down to us. I...

That's why I said exactly that earlier on the thread ;)

Another Update: I got a call from the dealership yesterday, They talked with Mazda Canada, and they want them to "check something". So I am taking it back in next week sometime. I love the talking-down attitude though, first I was "bitching", now I just don't know my job (software...

There is an awesome rally shop (they tune mostly Subaru) about an hour north of me, with an AWD dyno. They said they could do a custom exhaust job based on their custom STi application and estimate I would get about 10% increase in torque to the wheels (so like 22lbs/ft I guess?) What could go...

it's so close it looks like it touching, but it isn't... no scrapes on the wheel, and I have over 2000kms on these suckers. But yeah, these are 17s, so you guys can see why I think there is no way you will find a 16" rim that will fit over our breaks. I think if I hit a pot hole hard enough to...

Actually, I never said it "can't" be the fuel, I just know I put 94 in there.. I didn't dismiss it as the car's fault (I don't think you should take it personally, but I don't feel a car should loose 100hp due to "slightly bad gas"). update: I took the car in today. They said they found...
