Chill out man, not because one or 2 people call it photoshop you have to generalize.
And the color of the bumper on the first pic does look a bit wierd. The orange doesn't seem as orange-metallic as the rest of the car, but then again my car has had about 10 different colors of blue depending on the camera i used to take the picture and the position of the sun so i guess its just the picture?
Btw your car rocks, esp the wheels they fit the car perfectly. At least in my opinion

Karl...not directed AT you, but this is really one example of how so many posts get jacked by people who consistantly have negitive things to say. Moreover, this is definately not the only post where people call "BS" and "Photochopped". I have been an active part of this board since Oct 2001 and I see it happening.

did anyone see my second post?....anyways why people get all b****y and stuff when people critisize cars? not everyone is gonna be kissing ass when people post pics of their cars, if someone doesnt like em they will say it, he is a hater, reminds me of the honda people..(moon).. anyways i am no punk, i was wrong for what i put in my first post but the gaps,color, and IC makes it look photoshop to me...so there, i will now go sit in the corner and think about all the bs we "haters" started...
I like it only because it is different, and being unique is very important in the import scene, Especially if you go to shows. That car would probably win more shows compared to just a plane Jane MSP. People are gonna hate on you because you had enough balls (and money) to do what you did. Not my specific taste, but GOOD JOB!
Geez...you Canuck's have terrible tempers. Though...I haven't seen digi get like this...hmmph. Anywho...You did mention 9 psi. Fuel cut occurs at spikes above 10psi, and you mentioned that you had fuel cut at 9 psi. Hence the rise of the 10 psi misconception. I think he meant, was that dyno at stock psi or boosted higher?
AIGHT HOLD UP.... I DONT WANNA SOUND LIKE IM H8IN BUT FELLOW SPEED OWNERS OUT THER.... CORRECT ME IF IM WRONG BUT U SEE WHERE YOUR FACTORY SO CALLED IC IS RIGHT......Y WOULD THIS CAR STILL HAVE THE FACTORY IC AND AN AFTER MARKET IC. PHRiSCo JESS CURIOUS AS TO WHY IN YOUR PICTURE YOU STILL HAVE YOUR FACTORY IC AND YOUR SO CALLED KINETICS IC?????
Yes my factory IC is still in the car, there has been no need for me to take it out, and if some warranty issues occur, then I can put it back to stock pretty easily. However, I am looking for a normal Protege/Protege5 radiator, because the non-MSP radiators are larger and would bolt on and off into my car. Yes I am getting the fuel cut at 9psi, when I'm around 6000rpm in all gears, my EFC should fix this or the Volt Dampener, which is pretty much the same thing as one of Joes kits I think. And yes this thread has pee'd me off a bit, I never expected a reaction like this from my fellow Protege owners, I've seen this kind of response on other import car forums by teenagers but never on my local protege board(mpsport.net). I've put a lot of time, money, sweat and blood into this project and I guess I thought the response would me a little more positive, I apologize if I've offended anyone.

will it ever end?...example # 1,000,001
oh yeah...Phrisco...if you are looking at a new Radiator go visit AWR (www.awrracing.com). They have a direct fit, radiator that is a far improvement over the stock. It'll help tremendously with a FI setup.
YP5, the more users you get the more immature people there will be. U can't get around that. All kinds of people buy Mazda's. I hope you don't think because someone has a Protege that he's necesarly a good and respectable person? He can but as much a prick as anyone else.
Not to be completly off topic, PHRiSCo, i noticed in your sig it says #1 in Canada, thats pretty cool!!
Just curious... did you have to do anything to get it or you just got lucky?
I wish i could have had my prod number for my canadian MP3...

karl makes a very good point, of course, the larger the population, the less likely you are to have 100% assholes (of course this applies to 100% angels too) anyway, some posts get flamed, some get applauded, it's just part of being in the community...varying opinions, even stupid ones......

Actually a guy by the name of digi168, who used to be a member of this board, got the car originally right from port last November if I remember correctly. He was the first person in North America to recieve the MSP, I took over his lease in April/May? I actually don't know the production number, it's probably in the low numbers but I believe someone on this board has the actual #1 production car.
