What have you done to your Mazda6 today?

Installed my Dashhawk and Blendmount (Thanks, Steve!). I'll take a full interior picture a little later. I made the mistake of trying to clean the leather this weekend with stuff that filled some of the holes in the perforated leather. I'll have to go out there with a toothpick to take care of it...

I did the same thing last year. Try a stiff bristled tooth brush. It worked like a dream for me.

Good thinking. I used the brush attachment with the Shop Vac. Worked like a charm.

Here's the DH...

If you look closely to the right of the shifter, you'll see the most important mod of all: the bobble-headed turtle mod. Adds at least 40 HP.

Love the Dashhawk mounted there. Looks so clean!

Also love the bobblehead turtle! :P Prolly more like 30 HP to the wheels though...
 
Looks great Jay, very nice interior if I do say so myself (first)

I was originally going to do the boost gauge on the pod, but decided against it later on. Still a nice choice though.

Did you even bother to set up your own screens on the DH or just throw it up right out of the box like that?
 
I just plugged it in as is. I'll probably change a few things here and there as I familiarize myself with it.

Did my first 0-60 run, too, and came up with 6.12 seconds. This was on a less-than-aggressive launch with the DSC on and just an SRI. Not bad, if I do say so myself!

Incidentally, is there a way to configure the screens by using the software as opposed to on the unit itself? It'd be a lot easier to do it on the couch with the laptop as opposed to sitting in the driver's seat.

Where did you get the mount for the boost gauge? I want one!
 
carlson if your going with a white/black theme under the hood.. change all the couplers to black, and maybe the vaccum lines to black as well. the turbo inlet pipe you could change to black. you could have the corksport pipes powdercoated white and with the black couplers connecting them that would look hot!!.. just a few suggestions

couplers are on order already. keeping the pipes black. everything will be black except the vc and im.

What condition were they in?

Today I installed Tanabe Medallion axle backs, installed a MS CAI, oil change (RP 5w20/ K&N filter), EGR mod, tranny fluid change (RL D4), installed WIX in-line magnetic tranny filter, and changed my plugs out to Pro Lines.
Was going to wash and vacuum, but it was getting late.(thinkbeer
 
Just swapped out my interior lights with leds from superbrightleds and now I'm waiting on my Apexcone hid kit for my fog lights to get here this week.. I got 35w 8000k to match my headlights..
