MSP 2731 Goes Forged

Damian, the steedspeed looks great! I appreciate it as always.

Here is a pic that Damian sent me recently of the 505 mani installed..

that steedspeed is slowly growing on me.

You should get one, they are solid.

He's doing a group buy now.

I wish I was still on the East Coast so I could see some of these awesome MSPs in person!

Well you should come to the National Mazda Meet in St. Louis at the end of July so you can check it out! Details are in the thread linked in my sig.

man id like to build mine.. but sheesh.. takes a year to get it all done :D fuk dat sheet

How long it takes depends on you and your situation, if you can do the work yourself that certainly would help. But if not I suggest gathering all the parts and then stacking loot till you can afford to have everything done at once. If I did that it would have been done a looong time ago..
 
I'd take that aluminum crank pulley off unless it has a harmonic balancer in it. The vibrations from the motor will shatter the oil pump gears.

What the hell the oil pump can relate with the crankpulley? Our engine is internally balanced. The oil pump bolts to the crank and then the pulley is put right after...
 
Black steedspeed is sexy...Godddddd I want mine now! Love all the blue dude I am trying to go all black and blue myself!
 
my oil pump still works fine after 10k miles with my OBX UDP on lol

I'm glad to hear this and figure mine will be fine as well.

Thank you and I agree the black looks dead sexy. I just gotta do my CAI black and my valve cover laser blue and I think I will be good to go.. Well at least with the engine bay. I still want to get my Racing Harts done black and then use the laser blue touch up paint to fill in the letters. She is going to look so sick!!
 
Very nice build man!(2thumbs)


Look's like it will run like a ***** ape when it's done...
 
psst...hey zach...i got the turbo in today:) just gotta bend the coolant lines and hook up the oil line.. as well as a few other things and we'll be good to go!:)

Not sure if this helps you?

a little. but seeing close up pictures of the hoses routing in the back. especially if you didn't do the throttle body bypass. that'd be great.
 
Now you're just being picky LOL. Sorry man that's the best I got. Send me a PM tomorrow if you still need it and I'll go snap a pic.
 
The couplers are ordered and should be to you tomorrow Damian. I will PM you pics of how my vacuum lines used to be. I don't know if you will be able to see what you need but that is the best I can do. I also am having ForceFed powdercoat a valve cover for me. And thanks for these pics, they made my night last night.
