Stock boost?

[Larone]

Does anyone know how many pounds of boost the MSPs run in stock trim? I don't think it would be the best thing to be turning up boost without any mods but does anyone know different?

Do a search!!!!!!!

It runs about 6 psi stock boost, should be safe to turn it up to 8 or 9, but any higher than that, and you should do some serious tuning.

the stock boost is a range anywhere from 4psi - 6psi has been reported. Me personally i have a ebc and am running anywhere from 8 - 12 psi depending on the day and my mood.

^btw i know your just trying to get ppl to use the search so u dont feel like ur repeating urself but this person is new only has 2 post, least u could do is welcome them before giving them im to lazy to answer u so read the ******* manual attitude yanno...

Thanks guys. I was guessing it was somewhere around 6psi but it was just that - a guess.
Thanks for the welcome Ryan. btw, which brand ebc do you have?

i think i was the first one running greddy's new profec b spec II.
its nice has three ajustables boost gain and start gain, and two settings hi and low boost, u can buy a remote that goes on the steering wheel and lets u switch between high and low boost for a extra 120 something.. pretty nice ebc.

Thanks a lot!

I've got JoePMBC(.com)'s manual boost controller. Car's a lot more responsive now, as I keep it at around 10 to 12psi daily on 93 pump gas. My tires have about had it anyway, so I'm trying to play nice. However, lately, due to the occasional sprinkling, it's constantly losing traction when I put my foot in it. Can't wait to get new tires and really see how it does once I get some grip.

Larone,

Check out http://www.mazdausa.com

All the specs that Mazda has released are there alone with photos and other info on the MazdaSpeed Protege, the RX-8 and the rest of the Mazda lineup. It's well worth taking a look.

totally agree with you ryan. search shouldnt be to accomodate new people, it should be to look at archives.
