Injen intake done

[Spiro]

Before I found this forem I had sent an email to Injen (april 24). This was there response to the question if a CAI was coming for the mazdaspeed.


Yes we do, we are working on it right now actually.
Expect in early June.

Hopefully it is sooner ( I have no patience hehe)

Very nice board here and thx to all that worked with Injen to get this CAI going

Damn you!

All of your worries can now dissapear. I have been driving hard, soft, sweet, sour and every other way you can drive a car testing the intake. All stall problems are gone, I was even had a near stall in idle with the UDP and thats gone! The hesitation is 99.9% gone. With the K&N we though it was sweet, it definietly kills the stock box but the intake is a 1000 x's better. With the stock box/K&N I would notice huge hesitations sometimes. It would be like the car would take a deep breath when I hit the pedal and never let go of it. Only once have I noticed the car take a "breath" with the intake but it let it go almost instantly and nailed me into my seat, it was actually kind cool. I love my Injen intake and I know all of you will too.
Another example, I used to take turns, down shift into second before the turn and the hit the gas on the way out and it would lag building up speed, tonight on the way home I took the same turn, hit the gas on the way out and it was like the hand of god slapped my car on the ass. A huge difference...

Looks like I have to find 200.00$ in the family budget somewhere?
Hmm do I really need that 401k?
MBC,downpipe, Injen, boost guage, arggh I am addicT!

This is getting crazy now all this talk and still no final numbers on anything... Everyone wants this intake so bad we are all going nuts.

Mmmm like ground beef!

Will I still be able to run an atmospheric BOV with this? Dont think i should have a problem but just checking if the injen will still allow that with its setup.

 

[MazdaDryvr]

All I can say is GIMME!

 

[so-cal msp]

Would someone please post some pics of what the final product is going to look like. I need something to drool over for the next couple days.

i asked redmption about this and he said yeah its cool

 

[OrangeSpeed]

Thanks sounds like this is gonna be a sweet mod. Later

 

[boostedmazda]

does it get rid of the stumble when you shift hard and the stumble when you press the gas hard?

 

[MazdaDryvr]

That would be nice wouldn't it. Glad to know mine isnt the only one that does that. Had me concerned for abit.

 

[mtbjedi]

I also sent an email to them this week, and got a response from Russell saying "will be out this summer..the machining has been very complex"

 

[redmption]

99% of the stumble is gone, but I think it is restricting the amount of boost I can run, it is hitting the cut at 10-11ish

 

[ChopstickHero]

looks good.

 

[redmption]

the set up is different now than in that pic

Ok, so what does it look like? We were told there would be pictures over the weekend...and testing on 2 different cars? Where are the pictures and what were the results of the testing?

Not trying to be pushy...well, ok, I am, but....wait, no but, I want answers damnit

 

[mspeedpro]

is it a difficult install? does it sound a lot better? can u hear the stock BOV better?

 

[turboge]

Pictures coming soon, we forgot while doing the MBC and gauge install, but I'll be meeting up with him again and we'll take pics. He may have access to a digicam prior to that so we'll see. It's not a whole lot different, just the BOV return.

Ok...I figured I would post this comment here so you guys don't have to sift thru it in the broup buy (since my names already in the pool!)

People are complaining that this thing is going to cost over 200$...I have to ask wtf?!?! How much would you normally pay for an injen intake? 300 or so...and in most cars see a tiny boost in performance! Here we have 12-15 whp - WHEEL HORSE! We're talking 20+ crank horse! Not to mention that it's across the whole powerband! Where else can you get that much hp and tq. from at this cheap a price? Not to mention how easy this thing should be to install...it just bolts on! And hell...most of us in the group buy just want to save SOME cash...we're not even doing the work to set it up. Spicy, red, and I think someone else are chopping down doors at vendors to get up anything! How about we give them a tip with each order?
(/rant off)

Of course...that's just my opinion...I'm sticking to it. And though it's been said before, Thanks to Steph and Red for giving the untimate sacrifice...losing your car to mad scientists and not knowing how it will come back!
