- Mazda Protege DX '02
Is anyone using this or any type of chip on their 2.0?
I had to trade down(had an '07 GTI 2.0T) because of recent problems
with my "moneypit" ('03 Freightliner Columbia).....
I test drove a bunch of cars and by chance I drove an '02 DX.....
and have to say I was very impressed with not only the handling
but also the urgency that this car wants to go from light to light!
Can't wait to lower moderately(Eibach sports)..maybe replace the 15"
steel wheels with some lightweight(15-16lbs.) 16 inchers...then a
Mazdaspeed sway-bar...maybe an upper-front strut tie bar..and to
top it off with an intake and performance chip.
I absolutely love the looks of this car(silver!!)....and also like the "sleeper"
element of this ride......ya know..surprise some folks.
Would love to take the engine to 200HP....of course if there's a egative
to my Mazda it's that it is an auto! damnitt man...oh well...love her
anyway..even in it's basic..no sun-roof..no power anything!
