Do you guys know about this?
I just wanted to share.
Hello,
As everyone knows CPE has been looking for a mazdaspeed6 (MS6) donor car for a while. CPE has finally received one and has completed the first phase of engineering on it. First up for production is a cold air intake, after much study CPE decided this was the best value for the consumer. Testing proved the cold air intake provided cooler temperatures along the entire intake tract. The CPE team has spent considerable time measuring temperatures and engineering what we believe to be the best intake possible. For comparison CPE also fabricated a short ram warm air intake. It will also feature a redesigned heatshield that holds the ABS wiring harness up and out of the way. This way there is no chance of rubbing through the ABS wiring harness.
Our intake will not feature the MAF customizer at this time. CPE is waiting to see what Mazda does with the power loss issue and because it is a turbocharged car CPE would like to spend some extra time tuning it. CPE is also working to add boost control to the MAF Customizer before releasing it on the MS6. Some of you may be worried about CEL issues without the MAF Customzier. We will be offering a MONEY BACK GAURENTEE that our intake will not set a CEL. This is a result of careful design and proper engineering. Pricing will be comparable to a standard cold air intake.
As for cold air intake dyno graphs, this will happen as soon as possible. Once CPE gets the final version of the pipe finished we will be dynoing.
Im assuming that everyone would like to hear what CPE is planning next for the MS6. CPE is going to offer a turboback exhaust which will consist of the downpipe and catback system. CPE is going to be testing several versions of its own very high quality muffler design that is stainless steel throughout and completely hand fabricated. Most major manufacturers claim to have stainless steel mufflers but the internal parts of the muffler are regular steel. CPE will be trying several different muffler types on this car and testing them for horsepower and sound quality. CPE will most likely post sound clips on mazda6tech for consumer feedback. The cat-back will also be priced to compete with standard stainless catback systems. Dyno graphs of all the exhaust components will be provided on our website.
One of the items everyone is asking for is a front mount intercooler. CPE has some very innovative ideas for pipe routing and placement and our goal is to offer a very sleek and unobtrusive design that has a factory fit and finish. Intercooler performance testing will be performed to determine the optimum size and location.
Some people wonder why it takes a little longer for us to complete items for market. It is because serious engineering is expensive and time consuming. Many manufactures often times just fabricate something, with little to no engineering efforts, and start selling it. CPE takes the time to go through a formal engineering effort. This often entails the construction of several different versions of the same type of product. CPE takes pride in stressing over the fine details, things like optimumal intercooler placement and routing. In the end, CPE is confident that you, the consumer, will appreciate our efforts and benefit from the additional time spent.
Very Respectfully,
The CPE Team
