Hey new guy here, I just bought myself a Mazdaspeed Protege, nice little car. However I find it lacking in the boost and power I'm after, so I'm planning on putting a T3 in it. I had one on my Dodge Stealth that I sold a few months prior to joining the service. Now I've never worked on a Mazda...

I have a 2008 grand touring with factory 6 disc changer 5.1 Bose Centerpoint. I would like to upgrade to factory navigation. Can it be done? Is the wiring harness in place? Thanks, Bill

So far I have done minor appearance work and put on a short intake with parts from Autozone. I have big plans for this car but a tiny bank account, unfortunately. I am also a member...

So I have had my Protege5 for about a year and a half now and I loved it then and still love it now. I haven't done much to it so it is pretty much stock. I have heard that the best "bang for your buck" upgrade for the Protege5 is doing the suspension (springs, struts and rear sway bar). My...
