    New Guy Question About HKS BOV??

    Sorry for the ignorance I just picked up an MS6 with an HKS BOV. If the thick rubber hose is attached is it set for the rec mode? It puts out a decent whistle but I'm new to turbo cars and I'm not sure of the difference. But it seems the common thought here is VTA is lame.. I honestly don't know...

    MS6 Backfire question

    OK that make sense I was told the guy traded up for a V8, Camaro/Mustang I just couldn't remember. I was told about the car from the owner of that Mazda dealership "Randy" Hell of nice guy, and seems to know a good amount about the MS6. The car seemed to be some one's baby, maybe just a weekend...

    MS6 Backfire question

    I know man honestly I usually don't have a lot of expendable income and with my GTI I never was able to upgrade anything, so the fact that a lot has already been done I'm thankful for. I hadn't thought about the fuel pump.. Good point, any recommendations?

    MS6 Backfire question

    I double checked the large hose is firmly clamped. It was the small hose I was referring to, thank you for clarifying. I finally got a good chance to look over the car today. It also has a CP-E Downtube.. With the exhaust mods, front intercooler and intake, if the ECU has been set back to stock...

    MS6 Backfire question

    Thank you for the response, I looked at the BOV it does have a clear tube hooked to the front, but the zip tie had slid off.. New zip tie added so we will see. I think finding out exactly what this "chipped" comment meant would be a big help going forward.
