Hey, was that the motor that you took to Abacus Racing to get re-done? If so, no wonder why the guys over there think the motors are bad..... that looks horrible!

my husband that it was like 12 cause the old boost gauge was in bars
but i think it was 14 or so

12-14 psi. What kind of guage and was the car flashed?

 

[jersey_emt]

Any other mods besides the increased boost? FMIC, exhaust, colder plugs, intake, 93+ octane?

Hmmm I was at 12PSI for over 30k miles and have hit 15PSI on several occasions the majority of it post flash. Just more evidence of the fine work from those day laborers Mazda hired to put these cars together at the dock. Some cars explode, some cars run fine for 10's of thousands of miles.

Sorry about the engine. Thanks for updating the details. Its important to know about the flash and guage issue. Good luck with the rebuild.
