MS3 turbo manifold from PG

lol

so after having this installed for a bit now, how does it feel and how is it doing?

 

[tru-boost]

car feels strong. i have yet to have any issues. i have checked for leaks on several occasions, and found none. i think these should hold up long term.

for those that do not know, we are running a group buy on these right now;

i just reread you said you did RP also.. was the dyno with just the manifold or was it manifold with the addition of the RP? just wanted to clarify...

 

[tru-boost]

dyno was with the manifold only. the dp was added afterwards. the combo of the 2 feels awesome. i kinda want to add a DP to it, but my car has had the famous exhaust smoke in the past with a free flowing DP.

I would just take the car in and get the new turbo installed bro. Mazda knows about this problem and shouldnt give you a hard time about it.

not with the manifold installed...

 

[tru-boost]

yeah.. iwas going to bring it in, thats why i went back to stock exhaust.
the stock stuff gets ZERO smoke though...nothing. now with the test pipe, i still get nothing. oh well, there is one car doing 12's with just a test pipe for exhaust mods. i suppose i can do it too ! i just may do a gt28 turbo at some point, but who knows.

I think if I put one of these in my car I would wrap the individual runners with high temp insulating tape prior to bolting it in.
For those of us who live in states with tough emission laws, does anybody make a downpipe with a high flow cat in it? I wouldn't mind just going through the exhaust system from one end to the other replacing all the cats with high flow versions. That way I might still pass emissions but get a nice drop in back pressure.

A head hunter called the wife the other day and talked up changing jobs. He mentioned a nice raise and a 5 figure sign on bonus. If she goes for it I am going to have to be sooo extra nice to her. "Honey, can I have $2,000.00 to mod my car?" "Don't be silly, I'm rubbing your feet because I love you..."

 

[numbnuts22715]

the cpe has one primary high flow cat. The second oen is replaced with a test pipe.
You should be able to pass emissions with just the one high flow primary cat

cobbs will have a cat.... whenever it decides to get here, sometime after the AP I believe

Sometime after the second coming, you mean.
I have lost all faith in Cobb delivering that AP in my lifetime. So by extrapolation, I will never see anything that is due out after the AP.

AP is due in march. Be patient, quality takes time.

So these gains are with no tuning???

Until they realize there is a bigger market for the new WRX/STI coming out, and back table this...again. Basically, I'll believe in the Access Port when it is in my hands.

you realize they use different R&D teams for different applications right?
