2008 MazdaSpeed3 Questions.

[iSeth]

You can see my current mods in my signature. I'm ordering a Cobb AP this friday, from a vendor on here (bowdown). My next mod is getting a HPFP, I was thinking AutoTech would be the best choice... AutoTech vs KMD which is better? Also should I get a upgraded CS TMIC or a TestPipe+DP?

Maybe search threads first before spending more money or getting quick answers from just a few guy that might or might not know what they are talking about?

For what it is worth, AutoTech was my choice due to reputation and experience. We use the same pump as VW and Audi applications and AutoTech has been making these internals for them for a long time.

As to bigger TMIC v. DP/TP, ask someone who has both. My opinion is that larger TMIC produces marginal benefits while DP/RP (with pump internals and a good tune) produce huge power gains.

Others may disagree. Please search the numerous threads and stickies. They are there to help so we don't have to keep answering the same questions over and over.

If you have problems with the search feature, use Google and begin your search terms with the word "mazdas247" without the quotes. That will direct Google to this forum.

^^i like to think i know what im talking about ^^
my 2 cents as far as the HPFP upgraded internals go, Autotech seems to have the best rep and has certainly been making the part for a long time, i went a different route and have been super happy with my results, but if you have the coin i dont think you can go wrong with Autotech.
as far as what to do for your next upgrade either choice is a good one, i went for the race pipe and TMIC option, for what im looking to get out of my car and keep a daily driver that combination has been perfect for me, (along with my other mods in my sig. of course)
looking at your choices and thinking strictly HP gains, go with the DP/RP combo. but id look to do the TMIC soon after, running lower air boost temps makes for a happier turbo car.
