2003.5 Titanium Gray Mazdaspeed Protege
Hi everyone, i'm pretty new to this forum, but then again i've only had my mazdaspeed protege for about 2 months now, and i love the car, i used to have a 98 accord that was pretty modified, but i've already started modifying this vehicle as much as i can, due to my budget lolz.

Anyways i was just wondering if there are any other MN people with mazdaspeeds that have done PERFORMANCE modifications to their vehicles, so far this is my list of things i have for my car

Greddy TypeS blow off valve
Autometer Dual gauge pod
Autometer Boost gauge
Autometer Oil psi gauge
Turbo XS high performance boost controller
Custom Short ram intake

i'm still saving up for hardpipes, but like i said i just wanted to know if anyone in mn has had their cars mildly modified, well any replys would be nice, thanks, oh yeah, i'm from Blaine, MN.
 
Im in MN, and have ordered my mods. They are not here yet, but soon!!

elite isn't bad... but then again i'm paying this dude that is a DSM professional to install this stuff for me, he's worked on all my friends and cousins turbo cars, and he does a great job, but how much is elite charging ya? i bought the PHANTOM style of gauges... what about you? and did you get the FULL A PILLAR MOUNT, or just the dual gauge pod and screws into it?
 
Got the ultra light gauges, and they said 1-2 hours labor, so 75-150 bucks. It's worth it to me though, as it's done right. Also got the full A pillar.

thats kool man, i didn't get the full apillar, i got the gauges for only 30 bux a pop for the phantom style, and the gauge pod for only 25 shipped, i was thinking about letting them do it too, but then ionno.. i'll jsut have my boi do it for me, he owns street scenes tint if you know that place... he opened up a new shop, if you wanan get ur windows tinted let me know, i'll hook it up
 
I'm in MN too, but haven't done much yet, I am in line to get the Ion 3" TB exhaust though. Currently live in Eden Prairie, but am moving to Plymouth in 2 months. I do have an Autometer 2 pod full pillar with defi boost and A/F gauge.

Anyway, just thought I'd say hi.
 
cool man, eden prairie eh? my cousin lives out there, he has a yellow EVO maybe you've seen it around, he's an azn dude lolz, anyways kool beans man let me know how that exhaust sounds... and also, how hard is it to install boost and oil psi gauage and the boost controller? i'm scared to mess with my car... its brand new.
