Hows it goin? i just wanted to say whats up and see how the mazda community is. my buddy has a 06 Mazdaspeed6 and i love it. he has a full CPE tbe, CPE cai, and a hks ssqv. i currently own a SRT-4. i will be on here asking some questions about my buddies car since i do all the work on it. lol

everyone with the turbo back exhaust, how did you react when you saw clouds of smoke at idle after the install?

Welcome man! No TBE yet.. sry i cant help.


well, the reason i say so is because when we put the tbe on it started smoking and continued to smoke. we got a little worried, then contacted CPE and they said it was normal. (dunno)
 
i have a 05 SRT

nowhere on it does it say neon unfortunately, nowhere possible whatsoever. and none of the body parts are interchangeable for the whole front end.
 
1BADSRT,

Hi, seat down for a while, we have some mags on the table. Donas64 will be here shortly to give you a blow...


jk Donas! :D

1badsrt, what you running on the 1/4mile with that?

The reason smoke is comming out of your buddy's exhaust is because of the turbo seals are not sealing properly and are creating too much vacumm allowing the oil to leak. See if they can fix that at the dealer....I think a new turbo replacement if needed though.

its still a freakin' neon with a turbo motor and some different plastic pieces.

You can say the same for all the Mazdaspeed vehicles.
 
By the way before this turns into a flame war....since i drive a s2000 now. I still have plenty of love for Mazdas. I'm just saying the same can be said for Mazdas. Hell I was at the dealer today trying to talk my mom into buying a CX-7 or perhaps a 5.

sad but true. you could not, at the time, go any faster for $20,000 either. (drinks) to the srt4
 
how did i react when i saw the clouds of smoke?? I took off the exhaust and tried to return it, the company wouldnt accept so i put the exhaust up for sale on the forum and bought an atp turbo kit. I needed a new turbo either way cuz the stock is a POS...nice srt

do you have a link to these turbo kits? my buddy might be interested.
and thanks.

yes it is a neon, the body is a flexing pos. but thats not why i bought it. its not the best car under the sun, but it sure is fast as hell with very little $$$
i came on this site to gain more info on my buddies MS6. i love his car and it has a awsome powerplant. we are waiting for cpe to send him his front mount kit.

and as for 1/4 times, i am not sure, just installed the stage 3r this week, so i am gonna wait a month or so to break the turbo in then go to Famoso raceway.
