  1. Fortune Auto 500 Suspension

    Ever thought about getting KW V1 or if you want to cut a bit of cost and don't need stainless steel then ST-X coils are exact same just zinc coated/painted parts with a more basic steel. Right now I am trying to decide between those 2 and the steeda coilovers. I live in Canada and drive year...
  2. Well guys I think it finally happened

    Where is the smoke coming from? If you are getting smoke out the exhaust when idling good chances are it is the turbo oil seals that have let go. Is the smoke white, does it have a slight blue tinge?

  4. BNR Stock Replacement Turbo

    Yes, they have offerings for the Cobalt SS, HHR SS, Saturn Sky, and Solstice GXP
  5. BNR Stock Replacement Turbo

    By the look of things and estimating based upon the MS3/6 turbos the small unit will probably be around $1000-$1200 and the larger one which has similar flow to the S5 will be around $1500. The S5 makes around 500whp on the Mazda 2.3L which has the exact same bore and stroke as ours so the...

  7. BNR Stock Replacement Turbo

    The only info they have released is all in that facebook post, there has literally been nothing else mentioned. I will keep me eye out for any more news which should be coming in the next few weeks since they are going into production and then will be for sale.
  8. BNR Stock Replacement Turbo

    So I follow BNR Supercars LLC on facebook back from my Mazdaspeed days as they make some of the best replacement turbos out there for a very reasonable price. I just saw this morning that they will be soon going into production for an Ecoboost Mustang replacement unit. This is supper exciting...
  9. Plugs self gapping over time

    This is why spark plugs need to be replaced and or regapped, the electrode wears down over time, this is a completely normal thing that happens to all spark plugs.
  10. Wheel to Hub gap?

    Be careful with grinding as grinding by hand you may not have a circle when it is done.
  11. Wheel to Hub gap?

    Sounds like improper clearance of the hub dia. on the wheel, wheel might have to be machined out or possible rust build up on the hub of the vehicle are the main causes. If a wheel manufacturer doesn't account for paint in the hub dia clearance dimensions this will happen
  12. Tires for Canadian weather?

    This is what I am looking at for next season. There are a few different size options and people on the forum praise these as the best tires for the money. http://www.1010tires.com/Tires/Firestone/Firehawk+Indy+500/003260
  13. Shopping for winter tires

    Can confirm Hakkas are the best you can get, trust me I live in the frigid north called canada.
  14. Shopping for winter tires

    If you are driving in snow and ice get a set of winter tires, stock tires are shit under 50 degrees. I was originally looking at the 245 size, they will fit the wheel but your speedo will be a bit off but the speed variance is less than 3%. Get all 4 tires, your steering and braking is done...
  15. Have you blown an engine? If so, what rod (cylinder) failed?

    Anybody have any pictures of an intake manifold off the car? I know mazdaspeeds had some really bad flow imbalance in the intake and exhaust manifolds which caused cylinder 3 to receive much more airflow than the other cylinders which can cause a constant lean state in that cylinder as the O2...
  16. Oil Catch can

    The UPR has a larger capacity so you don't have to drain as often, it is easier to drain when you add a 1/4" NPT mini ball valve. The biggest plus to UPR is if you get the DVCC style which will do its job at filtering even when boosting since it has a second vacuum source. UPR also has 2 check...
  17. Any one done a Balance Shaft Delete?

    I know of many people how have done this on Mazdaspeed motors. It adds NVH because that is the entire point of the balance shaft. Everybody I know buys the delete kit and removes the entire carrier to get rid of the weight. Delete kits run about $35 USD. After the delete you will have to fill...

    Pay a homeless dude to ride around with you going "pop pop pop!"
  19. COBB accessport Load Des. TQ Ctl (%) limited ??

    It depends on the style of tune you are running. Load based tunes will limit power when a specific load is hit (imo best tuning option). If you are running a load based tune the ECU will take action to stay at that target load because going over that load will stres the motor and may cause...
