If you are looking for a tune for your 5 and have been let down by the likes of Hypertech, Superchips, Cobb or others, you now have a viable option.
Joseph at DPTune.com (Dynotronics.com) now has ECUTek programming abilities for the regular 2.3 motors used in all other Mazdas and has confirmed he can tune the 5 also. This is a custom tune and done by special software he sends you. You connect your car via laptop and a licensed cable which datalogs your ECU data. He rewrites the appropriate fuel, timing and other maps then sends you a tune file to upload. He can tune for power on premium fuel or better economy on regular. Datalog and repeat as needed until perfect.
Also note that if you have a CEL for any specific mod he can disable that particular code also.
Improved mileage should be a given for any tune he provides. I've noticed the factory ECU can run as rich as 11.0:1 at WOT
I'n in this process now and am removing the AEM FI/C from my turbo setup and will be running on the factory ECU tuned for the new injectors and boost. I'll update with results. Check his website for contact info. There is a group buy on the tune now on another Mazda 3 forum.
