Any MS6's in Wisconsin?

[vrspeedemon]

Trust me, I totally understand...just giving you a hard time lol.
My hours at work have been drastically cut, and they just layed off quite a few people with rumors of more to come.
I'm interested in the AP , pretty much put everything up for sale that's not currently installed to try and come up with the $ "under the radar" of the wife.
She just doesn't understand the car modding addiction.

Is your 6 a 06 or 07???

alright let's get a meet going....Jeff, maybe we can talk this leaker^^^^^^out of jumping ship.
Oh btw...still haven't got those plugs in (guess I'm a leaker too) lol but boost leak seems gone now????

lol, calling somebody else a leaker with a new pair of spark plugs waiting to be installed.

Boost leak gone by itself......something is not adding up here.

I don't have a MS6, but I have a MS3, and I am in the Milwaukee area as well. Just thought i would say hello to fellow mazdaspeed enthusiasts in Wisconsin.

 

[vrspeedemon]

welcome.
We are all really just one big speed family anyways aren't we lol.
Would you be interested in joining up for a small meet?

yeah I know, lol
I'll try and get the plugs and coil stretch done this weekend

Well, here's the only thing I can think of with the boost leak.
I switched out the spring in my Forge BOV and totally took it out to lube it up and such and shortly after, (not immediately) I was holding steady boost, like rock steady. Maybe I didn't tighten enough originally?, maybe hose clamps were loose or positioned poorly? I dunno(dunno)

 

[Wagonbacker9]

or you were boost leaking from the BOV because something hadn't seated... and taking it apart let it settle in right finally?

for sure, the MSP was on my list back in the day...nice ride.
I would have had one if I wasn't too tall for it.

I feel a meet coming on!!!

you may be right, with all the talk of people snapping the bolts off I may have been a little TOO careful with wrenching arm lol.

Thanks for the welcome. Yes I would be interested in attending a meet. Just would have to know where and when.

I'm 6'3 also, funny
It was too cramped for me, felt like my knee was hitting the dash and eyesight was right at the tint line in the windshield, maybe if I kicked the seat back but then felt like a "gangsta" lol.

I have the seat adjusted all the way down in the back, and prb just below middle in the front... I have it about 4 notches from all the way back on the slider... I'm as comfy in that as I am in my gf's grand prix... at least when it comes to the seat... the ride is a WHOLE nother story... ugh.. the thing FLOATS, doesn't drive.
