walking away i ordered a 08.5 white ms3 sport in like nov. (check this thread) but now i am walking away when it was delivered. i told the sales guy to keep me informed on every step of the process but i was not. nothing about when it was actually ordered, nothing about being built, nothing...

only downside to pre-turbo is the possibility of the probe breaking and then destroying your turbo with debris. does happen, id do after turbo.

Question for Driver311 You state there is no benefit to the cai over sri in terms of air temperature when its past the turbo. My question is, then why does everyone notice a big difference in performance when its cold outside? You hear people saying how much stronger it runs. Perhaps the...

EDUCATED GUESS European 2009 mazda6 will get this motor. Will likely share with next mazda3. (read from Feb Car&Driver) Probably 2009 but might be 2010 when the next 3 hits the states. S version will have a 2.5L disi motor with 168 hp. Also will have better fuel economy than current 2.3L...

yeah. where is the line for fuel cut and boost cut and cels and all the other issues drawn when it comes to mods. Intake alone and you are safe or is it intake, exhaust, and bov? What is the max amount of bolt on mods you can have without dealing with the "issues"?

i have driven stick for a long time. I dont hold the clutch in unless im changing gears. BUT for the sake of argument... and i dont really want to argue but instead add fuel to this fire... Holding a clutch in will wear out the throw-out bearing quicker BUT shifting more often will wear the...
