What have you done to your P5 today?

[Teeson]

will be 14:1 next year though

How intensive do you think the swap would be into a P5? I'm beyond tempted.

 

[o0n8]

pretty intensive i would guess. Figure out where motor mounts go, wiring, exhaust, steering and axles etc

 

[jdmdude07]

Yeah, I know. Not to mention the initial cost FOR the engine and transmission. I'm just not digging my 25 mpg's.

Just remove all interior pieces, get super light weight wheels, remove roof rack, dam up the grill and some other mods and you can get 45+, just wont have any creature comforts lol.

Haha, you guys are turkeys. I called dibs on Shae's P5 months ago. Shae, please don't change your mind and sell it to someone else...

sucks when someone does that to you

Prepared a new engine block and transmission for a trip to montreal.

Forged Engine and Updated Transmission should be ready in less than one week.

Would mounting a massive blower be too tacky? And I'm ordering some DDM HID's this weekend. I can't take the stock halogens any longer.

Washed it, relocated front plate, took roof rack off and put on the filler caps

Having reoccurring dreams/nightmares about finally tackling hacking the ecu wiring to do the MPI tuner for NA/Innovate wbo2/Flying Miata voltage clamp/FSZE intake mani/OBX 3 bung hdr swap that I've been sittin on for yrs now and doing some fuel map/timing stuff ............gotta get ahold of this Nick dude at modern performance.

14:1 compression, but that doesn't mean an end to the speeds yet...

the skyactive in the 3 is 12:1. (same as the focus... hmmm)
the skyactive in the cx5 is 13:1

according to the mazda website.

Nothing too exciting, for my P5 there are some new rear struts and a wheel speed sensor (and those tires in the back). The rest of it is for my mom's car (front struts, endlinks, oil filters, etc).

 

[repthemazdas]
