good question. hehe, it looks like all the links are dead. i'll have to make new how-to threads then.

Ok thanks.
BTW, there is no reason you need to buy the kit for the tb bypass. You can just comepletly remove the small (aprox 6 in) coolant line from the side of the tb closest to the firewall. Then disconect the line at the other end of the tb and connect it to the tube that the other line led to (not the tube to the tb, but the other end to close the loop.) Then you can just send me the $6.
I've done this on several cars over the years. They are all basically the same. Living in South Florida, heat is the enemy.
If that read is confusing, let me know, I'll do a better write-up if there is intrest.

Well, after doing a little bit of research, I found the mod write up on another board. I guess we aren't alowed to link to other boards here, but if you use your imagination on what another forum for Mazda 3 may be you'll find it too. It's the first mod in the "How To" section. Another easy mod. Basically you advance the timing by loosing the two screws that secure the CPS, and adjust it to the lowest possible adjustment. It takes about 15 minutes. I'm going to run 89 octane now to avoid detonation being in a warm weather low altitude climate. All this is just prepwork for real mods really.
i would like to ask you guys to bring that other how to over here for easy reference. Since we are not allowed to link other forums (questions about this, feel free to PM me or Tsunami or thebeansoldier) it would be good if we have our own copy of the write ups.

ZoomPT you have a pm.
And while I am at it, have you guys seen this? and what do think?
PROBOOST Horsepower Performance Booster
The PROBOOST HP Booster was designed at North Carolina State University (check out my FAQ) during my Senior Design Lab. Our goal was to make a Horsepower Booster that provided the most "Bang For The Buck."
To make a long story short, our group won 1st place, and now I am selling this specially designed PROBOOST chip on eBay!
This chip is the product of 4 months of testing and design by 10 Mechanical Engineering college students. PROBOOST tested perfectly on all 4, 6, and 8 cylinder vehicles!

In regards to throttle body bypass... I can't actually find the coolant lines. I did this on my Sport20 familia, and it was an easy 10min job. My MZ3 is the JDM version with a cable throttle. Any chance it doesn't actually have coolant running through it?
ok i read 70 pages about this and i am lost
I live in montreal therefore, 4 seasons, temperatures go from -25 celcius to +25 celcius..
I have a 2007 mazda3 GT 2.3L and have done the TB grounding.
I wanna try this ignition timing advancer. I saw pictures on how to do it so i am a bit educated. Here is what i want to know.
If weather in montreal is safe for this mod.
What gas should i run, 87/89/91 and what difference does it make?
Do i have to unbolt and push the thing all the way down to the ground? Can i push it too far down?
What do you guys mean by ping/spark etc
TIA , i would like to do this tonight of possible.

ok, moving the sensor all the way down will cause advanced timing, which will result in more torque. you might hear pinging if you use 87 gas, thats why you would want to switch to 89 which takes longer to detonate (more octane, longer detonation) and that will prevent knocking/pink.
you cant move the sensor too far, just move it down as low as possible, it would be good if you had a really small 8mm wrench since the space there is really tight.
