Funny, I sure will...

Jordan,

I has asked in the MS6 thread about smoking and turbo seals. Does this conclusion apply to our turbo as well. Is there anything I can do to prevent this from happening? Or do you think I should wait and see if their is a recall for the turbo seals???

The honest answer is that we don't know. I could lie to you and say, "No, it won't happen to you," but we won't know for sure until people start putting miles on these cars.

The only reason we knew about the MS6 smoking is because is happened to one of our customer's cars while it was at our shop. We of course jumped to concclusions and thought we screwed something up, so we contacted the customer, explained the issue, and then drove it to a trusted Mazda dealer to have it checked out. It turned out that we weren't at fault, and that the turbo seals were junk. And surprise, many other people posted on the forums with a similar story shortly thereafter.

Now, I personally haven't heard of this problem on the MS3's. But, even if you do suffer from this issue, it won't hurt anything. It's just an annoyance. The worst part is, despite the fact that Mazda has documented cases of this issue, they still refuse to replace the MS6 turbo seals. So waiting for Mazda's stance on the issue probably isn't going to help much, but I couldn't blame you for being cautious.

cp-e windshield decal!? That's awesome (burnout)

You know the saying, "You never know until you ask?" That certinaly applies here, so I'd suggest you give one of the owners a call and ask them about a discount. The guy you'll want to speak with is Josh Adams, and you can reach him at our shop anytime during the day 301-576-6142.

There was some progress on the PnP connectors, but I was too busy to pay attention to the commotion today (things are pretty crazy right now). I'll see if I can get a better rundown of the progress for you tomorrow.

I think i heard something like another 2-3 weeks before the release of the downpipe. I also have the turbo back system ordered and i am also interested in the ETA.

 

[knowledge007]

It will be sooner than that my friend. Don't worry, trust me CP-E is well worth the wait.

i know it will be, but when you have an order that's paid for for about two months.... it starts to eat at you, i know i'll love it when it comes and i'll enjoy putting it in. I just need some word on when. (2thumbs)

I just received my cat back system. What do you think guys you think I should install the cat back and the dp later??? hehehe

na.. slap it on!! people are impatient for some better quality videos or something! lol

I don't know for some reason I get the feeling that everything is in the box. I'm going to call Josh today to confirm. I could be wrong b/c when I called yesterday the guy told me that their packaging the DP...

 

[knowledge007]

Nope I was wrong. DP ships today. Hopefully I will have it by Saturday installed and post vids and sound clips by Monday. Whats intersesting is that Mazda said they would install it for me. Of course charging for 2.5 hours at the regular rate. Which is prolly going to come out to 250.00

My mazda mech said he wants to work on the car all day. He still hasn't given me a price yet. But if its more than the above I guess I am off to the dealer...

damn, maybe I should have ordered my items straight through cpe.com i didn't know of their website until i had already purchased it all through street unit. I better not get this "2 more weeks" bulls***. its been 2 months since i've ordered my intake, still not here. I even ordred the downpipe within the first couple of days of street unit placing it up for pre-order.

Did they say anything about your warranty?

Negative. They did not. This just mentioned that I will void my warranty of course on the parts I have replaced.

What do you mean. Someone else has the cat back system from cp-e or your talking about the pic on the website?

sorry, someone else has the cat-back system. another member on mazda 3 forums.com he had some pictures but hopefully its because of his situtation, he welded the cat-back flange onto the turbo xs race pipe because they don't match up. So hopefully that sticking out condition is a result of that or just the angle of his picture.
