It's been on the site for a couple of days already. PM ken for more info.

 

[sweetlou69]

listed for the mazdaspeed proteges and claims around 15whp

 

[ChopstickHero]

hmm.. interesting

 

[MSP#735]

uh huh.......15 whp......

 

[03.5MSP]

here it is? Anyone have more info on it?

 

[sweetlou69]

was that sarcastic about the 15 whp? or u think it does

 

[MSP#735]

id have to see it to believe it BUT im sure its possible!!!

If a shop fabricates an item, and claims that an item makes certain hp, wouldnt they already have dynos for such a claim? Why can't those be posted? It seems like very few of the claims belonging to items sold by vendors are backed up by dynos.

I don't think anyone has asked Ken for a dyno as of yet.

looks like my 626 intake manifold!

 

[sweetlou69]

even if it does..199$ isnt a bad price to me

Yeah looks like the 626 IM. I wonder why its only posted in the MSP section because it should be applicable to all 3rd gens. The question is: this IM or VTCS removal on stock IM, which is better? Also, I would like to know what all has to be done for this to fit (e.g. vacuum line rerouting, etc.).

 

[vindication]

reason it looks like the 626 manifold is cause that is what it is. reason it is listed under MSP is cause that's where you will benifit from it most. In NA most likely you will loose down low torque. there are a few threads around about fitting this

 

[vxfilmer1000]

I think this could be one of my next possible mods......

I, uh, think 15whp is a little much to ask, but here's a link to a GB.
