Gorgeous MP3, my friend! (thumb) The nicest I've seen, in my opinion.
Thanks guys!
I need to update my picture because there's some big change on my MP3.... now wifes MP3.
I had a subtil airbrush design on my hood, a tribal made from Kameleon paint. I goes from blue to purple to black to gold depending on the angle you look at it. I also have a Autoexe replica grill and lip to install.
But unfortunately, I don't have the turbo kit anymore. I found it to much unfriendly in the snow in winter. Whitout any LSD it was realy bad on slipy road. So instead of putting more money on the MP3.... and I putted a lot of $$$ on it, I removed the turbo kit and sold it, gived the MP3 to my wike instead of his Civic and bought a new WRX.
So now I can get rides on twisty road with the MP3 wich is so much fun, and get power ride with my WRX. Best of both world!
I will try to post some new pics in the next weeks!

no silly,
of course I would use it for performance, but I'm sayin that it looks a whole lot more aggressive

Yes Sir Walter we are on the hunt; On the hunt for the elusive magic turd.
Nice MP3 clean not over stickered or pimpified.
Ok its a wee bit pimp but it's a tastefull pimp.

with a intercooler of that size did you notice any extra spool-up lag?
I have heard that if you put a bigger intercooler on this car you will actualy injure its performance. (speaking about the Mazdaspeed prot. not the mp3)

adding a bigger intercooler doesn't affect spool time. you will have a small, very small pressure drop with a larger intercooler. but that is all made up with the extra cooling a new, bigger intercooler will provide.
I don't see how the intercooler size can affect the spool time. It doesn't add any more restriction. It's the exhaust that make the turbo spool, so the intercooler does not have any impact on the spool time!
The only thing that I can see that can affect the spool time is the exhaust, the exhaust manifold in particular.
Also on the MSP, you have a small turbo that spool a lot sooner than the TD05 16g I had on my MP3. And I didn't have lot's of lag!
My WRX have more lag that I had on my MP3!

Stou....that is one sweet MP3!!!(bowdown)
In my opinion....the best that i`ve seen yet!!
I especially like the hood. Is it custom made? And if so, where can I find one?(scratch)
I`m currently trying to find parts to mod my MSP.
(mspb)
I`m currently getting the Spool MSP upgrade done to the turbo.
Now, if I could only find a stronger tranny.
