Just got my header installed today!! New to the site

[SurferPR5]

Hey, I've been reading you guys for a while now, taking notes and tips. Finally I decided to join the site. I just went today to the Racing Mazda shop in San Antonio and got my header installed. It is a header for MX-6 but fit almost perfectly on the PR5. The only mod they had to do was to move the EGR connection up like 4 inches and VOILA!!! Both of the O2 sensors are connected and no CEL came on. Ric, the shop owner said that some guys have had this done before and on the dyno there was a increase of 15 HP at the wheels. I am a believer now that a got mine installed. I'll post some pics tomorrow. It was too dark when I got home from the shop.

Welcome to the site.
Enjoy your stay.

 

[Dimitrios]

Sweet. Plan on dyno'ing it?

 

[Action Jackson]

Nice. A dyno chart would be sweet.

 

[azeli73]

Nice. There was talk of this header back in November...

Do you think the RacingMazda.com would do this mod and ship them out ready to be bolted in?

Hey Surfer and Welcome to our happy little corner of the net, and to our Club. There are TWO BIG fridge'S in the corner with anything you can think of in them...help yourself...of course only take what you can LEGALLY have. (stash)

make yourself at home on one of the big fluffy couches, kick your shoes off, put your feet up on one of the tables, yes we are allowed to do that, mom don't care....and take it easy.

oh...btw....every once in a while a food fight breaks out...so you may not want to wear nice clothes here.

Welcome!! (stash)

damn +15whp???
how much does it cost?

 

[SurferPR5]

It cost $290 and you gonna have to call them to find out if they can do the mod and ship it like that. It comes with the down pipe, so there's some modifications that need to be done.
It also eliminates the first cat but the down pipe has a connector for the O2 sensor. I'm posting pics right now.

?

It cost $290 installed or...? What kind of MX-6, the 6 or the 4???

 

[prote5]

DISREGARD the last question... wasn't thinking.....

 

[AnthonyO3]

Will this header fit the Mp3?

 

[AndrewSilverMP5]

Exactly what kind of modifications need to be done to the header to make it fit ?

 

[starflare21]

what year MX-6 is the header for?

is the EGR mod all that's needed for it to fit?

 

[tigerbunch]

Sweet. I want to see the pics.

DISREGARD the last question... wasn't thinking.....

we'll let it slide this time.. haha..

but seriously, i'm anxious to see some actual dyno sheets.. +15WHP for only $290 (plus install) is a bargain IMO !!

 

[mp3moose]

Yeah, it'll fit the mp3.
Months ago I believe some peeps did this, however I don't recall 15 whp improvements. Search around guys, I do remember there was pictures and whatnot.

Welcome Ladie! another Texas bum...wahoo
