The injectors were bad... The stock paper filters broke into pieces and were clogging the injectors. I have no idea what the flow numbers were before the cleaning because they didn't want to do test for fear of ruining the injectors. Luckily they were able to remove all the debris and replace...

Boom! Car stared right up and sounds great. Drove it around gingerly for 15 miles, then 5 miles with low boost then nailed the throttle on a canyon run for about 15 miles. Car is pulling like a freight train. I did a few logs and things are looking great and VD numbers are better than before...

Yeah I'm planning on it. Putting the car back together today and tomorrow.

My compression tester checked out fine. I pulled the injectors again and verified their seating and sealing correctly. This might be an issue with my engine. Cylinders 1-3 are showing about 75 psi and 4 is showing 150 psi... I did a wet test on #1 and compression went up to 120 psi, still low...

Yeah guess I'm taking everything apart tomorrow.

It's there but that shouldn't really matter since it's a cylinder compression test.

Replaced the seal with new OEM seals. My stock ones sealed perfectly fine after 80K miles so I went with those.

Was hoping someone has some insight into my issue. I removed my injectors to have them cleaned. I installed the injectors following the exact specification in the shop manual. After I was done I Immediately ran a compression test to check the seal. For some reason I'm only hitting about 50 psi...

No you can reuse it. I've cleaned a couple times and reused the JBR tig no issues.

I've done it 4 times so far. Gets easier every time. The best pointer I can give you is to remove the battery and entire intake. Trust me it take like 15 extra minutes but it saves you hours. The first time I left the intake in place added an 2 and a half extra hours of fighting the EGR dump...

Just did mine a few weeks ago. 5 Hours start to finish. I don't have compressed air so I used B12, engine brushes and picks. The difference between dirty valves and clean valves is crazy. My engine runs so Fing smooth now.

Holy crap! Mazda just casually dropped a big hint on Instagram and I found this news story: https://www.motoring.com.au/2018-mazda6-teased-109848/ Still unconfirmed but this could be a next gen speed! That 2.5L Turbo is no joke. edit post from Autoblog

My only issue with these head units is losing some steering wheel controls. If that was fixed I would buy it.

Hey dudes. I was browsing eBay and stumbled on this Access Port. It's totally possible this is a legit sale but to me this screams stolen because it doesn't include any cables and the person knows very little about it. I mean come on they're trying to sell a married Accessport for $400. If you...

I've always wanted a Speed 6.
