What have you done to your MSP today?

I pushed her out of the garage and gave her a well needed bath, oil and gunk was still everywhere from when i made the motor ventilate better :-(, also, did a lil photo shoot

Installed a SU front motor mount that i won at Mazdapalooza. Wow, its like driving a brand new car! Considering that I found out that my stock mount was almost completely useless since it was torn 100% on 1 side and about 70% on the other...

That was the best 20 min mod ever.

Only getting a slight harder vibration at idle, I checked my side mounts and they are still fine, i might have to pick up some inserts for those now.

mazdasummerpalooza mods ftw. i won over $400 worth last year, too bad i couldnt go this year. im sure it was amazing.
 
today i drove my car! woo hoo!

new pictorials.

new charge pipe by turbohoses, and ms3 bypass valve (customized for moi)

That's cool. I'm also diggin' the black wrinkle theme you've got going on. What's the product, prep, application (etc.)?
 
Used the brake booster as a vacuum line for my blow off valve and still get turkey. I thought relocated the MAF and blow off valve will get rid of that?
 
yeah, was a decent turn out this year. I won the front MM and some stainless steal brake lines...

Got the CustomMSP SMIC on, nice turbo whine now when I get on the gas a little bit. I'm surprised at the power boost and increase in throttle response. Wouldn't think it'd be that much.

Makes me a little disappointed its my first power increasing mod...

Time for a dyno ....

I called up the shop. The car isn't done. They said it will be done some time this week. Hopefully they get it done before the Thursday because I'm going to NYC for a wedding. I can't believe it is taking this long (pissed)
 
gone? i been here lol i just dont post everyday. what are u clammering for?

i posted pics of it on post #1498

i been there with the deer thing in my cav. i feel your pain.
 
Yeah, saw those. Figured you would have posted up pictures and new information in this thead.

The thing that sucks is I didn't even get a free deer out of the accident. It was too dark to see where it went. Not to mention that the rental Chevy Cobalt sucks, I mean really sucks, and gets worse gas mileage than my MSP. At least I get to use 87 octane gas, which is $.30 cheaper a gallon.

yea i forgot about that thread lol, ill update it tonight.

i almost got a cobalt to mod cause it was a natural progression from my cavalier but, damn i couldnt do it. so ugly.
 
I was given a bottom rung cobalt as a rental one time (travel A LOT for work). Good lord that thing was garbage. Everything was plastic, felt like half the car was going to break off in my hands every time I touched anything.
