These were from this past weekend in Tacoma, WA. I was in Mazda's (main show sponsor) booth.

Kinda blury... Carbon fiber interior (note the 02 shifter trim)

Momo Fighter. I may get the Momo Jet instead though (carbon fiber thumb grips and horn ring) The silver looks kinda cool though.
 
SonicRacer-What steering wheel hub are you using? I thought MOMO didn't make one for the Protege?

P.S. - Get the MOMO Silver Jet!
 
umm what dash kit is that? basically all i want is the damn cup holder cover. you said it was tha '02 kit, so obviously it fits with no problem,right?
 
Momo's wheels are universal, you just need to get the right hub.


Dash kit- Benne Vento (sp?) got it from Cork Sport. Dash kits are pretty spendy. This one is a 25 piece kit so it's like $350 I think.

You can't see it, but I also have a carbon fiber engine cover and door sills (I have a thing for carbon fiber left over from my RX-7 days still ;))


This is a new project for me, I just started so it doesn't have a ton of stuff done to it yet.
 
sonic, I take it thats the elusive corksport turbo back on there?

Would love some more shots of it, maybe a review??

Car looks sweet man!

Not the full turbo-back, but yes. It's the current system in production and for sale. It's the downpipe-back system I guess you could call it. It connects to the downpipe (takes out both cats). The downpipe is not out yet.

The system sounds good, it's not too loud at all. I didn't want my car loud and buzzy ya know. I don't have power numbers now, it'll be a couple months before I dyno my car with everything done. I'm actually guessing I'll get around 70 extra horsepower out of it with everything. Turbo back, intercooler pipe kit, cams, intake system, tuning, etc....
 
could you tell a pretty good difference with the exhaust installed? Think its worth waiting for the turbo back?? The price on the dp back is VERY good

I don't trust what you feel... especially with exhaust. You tend to expect to feel more and the sound increase tends to trick the brain. :)

It'll be worth it, especially for the quality and price. Mandrel bent, T304 stainless, polished finish.
 
I hear what your sayin, I just figured with or stocker being such a huge restriction a pretty good power gain would be felt. Man I'd kill for a couple more shots out it from a lower angle. Maybe sound clip????????? pu pu pu please

I tried to upload one to my imagestation account once, but it didn't work.

How do you know which is the right hub? I've been wanting to go with an aftermarket steering wheel but could not find the right hub.
