Did it help performance?

 

[Wojtek]

what differences did you notice and can you post a video?

 

[dacquesta1]

jspec intake has a longer duration and the msp exhaust is the same as the stock 01-03 exhaust if i recall correctly. opens up a little power especially in the high end.

deeper exhaust note and a bit more kick!!

 

[ghostbusters]

exhaust is the same as stock, many ppl re-pin a fs-ze cam and use it as an exhaust, otherwise the exhaust is the same...

Why did you bother changing your stock exhaust cam for the exact same thing? Waste of time and money...

the msp exhaust is the same as the stock intake cam so no need for repinning. so no it is not the same cam.

You said you got an exhaust cam out of a USDM Mazdaspeed Protege right? You therefore installed a cam that was identical to yours. If you don't believe me, look at the casting mark on the one you took it and compare it to the one you put in to your car...
If you actually meant a jspec mazdaspeed exhaust, well then that's not the same thing as an MSP.

From ProtegeFAQ.net

3rd Generations:
If you are talking about aftermarket cams, then no, none are available.
Don't give your hopes up however. If you own a car with a 1.8 or 2.0 liter
engine, you can get a factory intake cam from the JDM FS-ZE engine (which
has a lift of .341 and the duration 210 @.050). A short run of MazdaSpeed
exhaust cams was also recently made available for that engine and has a lift of
.341, and the duration of 210 @.050. The early version of the MazdaSpeed
exhaust cam (FS9P-12-440) supposedly performs better (by about 1-1.5%
@6000rpm) than the revised version. A TSB was issued in Japan concerning
stalling/idling issues under cold engine and/or cold weather situations and thus
the exhaust cam timing had to be reduced slightly in order to decrease over-
lap from 17.5 to 10.5.
Note that the stock intake cam has
lift of .341 and a duration of 198 @.050.
while the stock exhaust cam has
lift of .322 and a duration of 200 @.050.
Part numbers as follows:
FS-ZE intake cam: FSH9-12-420
MazdaSpeed FS-ZE exhaust cam: FS9P-12-440A (discontinued)
Cam gears from Tripoint Racing are also available.
