i remember when members were like if you boost over 10 youll blow your engine, then the flash becomes available and the same thing was said"youll blow your engine"

well Yashoo has been doing it for sometime now and his daily driver is still runnin
and many other members are boosting 12 some 14psi...
what gives?? none of you guys know for sure and i think we should keep testing...im doin fine at where i am but believe you me when it does go ill tell you all how long it held out.
i remember spoolin said 250hp to the wheels can be had with stock internals with supporting mods....look at his MP3.
no doubt i need to dyno and take it to the track though....will do soon
 
Hey Earnhart, does your MSP have a "#3" on the side of it?... I didn't think so.... don't think you're gonna be pushing too much PSI, you're not driving a race car, don't expect performance!

...not trying to hurt anyone's feelings here, just pointing out reality.....

...IMO....don't push much more than stock

ok, os i have been reading about all these blown engines and searching for "proper" ways to mod this car, but everyone conflicts. the only thing in common is "do it right". so i am asking... what is 'right' ??? i know cars (im not an idiot!) i have been working around cars for 5+ years now. but turbos and mazdas are new to me (i work for an audi / vw / porsche dealer). i have joep's setup on the way to me and one thing is for damn sure... it aint going in until i have a few more parts to back it up. but im not sure whats needed as everyone has a different opinion. any help for those of us who want to do it once and do it right ???
 
I think you should take the turbo off ENTIRELY! No boost is safe boost thats what I always say!

ask spoolinmp3, im sure he can tell ya straight on.
 
Because there was SO little sarcasm throughout this thread. :D
What Discreet just said was good advice. Other than that, all you are going to hear is different opinions because there is very little aftermarket support and the testing pools not very big for our cars so everybody's on their own. Not to say nobody knows but everybody is having to formulate their own ideas, opinions ETC.

:wtf: How are we supposed to have any fun. Can they not handle the boost. Even If you do the normal mods like, FMIC, Hard pipe kit, New BOV, Exhaust, Boost Controller ? And only run it at 10psi.
I have fun with 0 psi, so STFU

Ok not really just , sniff, tear, a measly little 12 but I'm ok with that. I like me , I am a winnar, I am a WINNNARRR!(stoned)
Ah yeah time for some more Ritalin....mmmm mETH is so delicious.

You have one of THE most incoherent, incomprehensible typing styles I have ever seen.
 
I just got my MSP and I like the car but at the same time I am dissapointed..The thing that gets me is how the HELL can mazda make a turbocharged enthusiests <sp> car and NOT use forged internals!!!Thats a pile of dung if you ask me..Just makes me mad to know that to make the car fast you have to do what mazda didn't and should have done from the beginning..Mabye its just me and my being used to making over 400hp on a 2.0 dohc thats over 12 years old and bone stock internally, but this is going on 2004 now WTF?!?! The focus SVT even has forged internals and its not even TURBO!! IS this just a regular protege motor or what??Whats different??

spoolin's mp3 also had alot more done to it than any mazdaspeed protege - correction, any protege - on this board. "supporting mods" in that case would begin with throwing the stock ecu out the window.
 
The guys who SCCA the N/A protege are making 250hp and I hear they are replacing engines three times per season. I wonder if that aMount of HP is the practical limit of this engine. Which would mean that a CAI/FMIC/full exhaust with 14+psi would put you near the limit right?
