    Very, though it definitely helps if you're willing to do some work to dig up answers on your own. What sort of problem are you having?

    Kits to play music from USB Thumb drive for MS6?

    I mean, if it works, I might try and use one to replace replace some of the system in my car so that I can retain bluetooth connections, but increase steering wheel button functionality. Of course, the underlying problem is that the head unit and central display in the MS6 is so rudimentary...

    Kits to play music from USB Thumb drive for MS6?

    I'll be amazed if it works and retains steering wheel controls other than volume, but I'm also very interested to hear your experience!

    My speed doesn’t run need help

    As the others have said, the car shouldn't run without a custom tune at this point. As such, the fact that it'll start but immediately die is absolutely expected. Basically, what is happening is this: First, you have a 4" MAF sensor housing. The OEM MAF housing is 2.75" in diameter. That...

    My speed doesn’t run need help

    Aww crap. I didn't see the long ass list of parts. In any case @Omar Lopez, in addition to what @Mauro_Penguin pointed out above, it sounds like the tune you are using is not fully taking account of what modifications you have. As evidence of this, the JMF manifold deletes the VTCS system and...

    Kits to play music from USB Thumb drive for MS6?

    Why not just do an Aux mod with a bluetooth adapter? I made my own aux mod (there's a how-to on this site somewhere), and then bought a Kinivo BTC455 to plug into it. Works a treat, but you have to use your phone/ipod/etc. to control the playlist.

    My speed doesn’t run need help

    What modifications are on the car? Have you touched anything on the car recently? Obviously, you removed the TMIC to get to the spark plugs, but have you done any other maintenance or made any other modifications? P2006/P2009 are related to the VTCS system and will not prevent your car from...

    How-To : P2006 free fix

    CEL P2006 indicates variable tumble control system (VTCS) shutter valve stuck closed. This seems to be a common issue for anyone that removes their intake manifold. There is a small plastic piece that triggers this sensor either closed or open. This part only comes with a new manifold and I was...

    How-To Mazdaspeed6 Aux Port modification

    I recently had some climate control lights go out in my MS6 and had to replace them. That shit is easy. Unfortunately, while I was in there I unplugged my aux port mod and had to figure out how to rewire my 3.5mm jack onto the head unit. The instructions on M6F are long-gone, and while there...

    Commanding 11 afr and getting 11.7?

    It's interesting that your Abs Load Target and Norm BAT TRL tables are identical to your TRL Max A table and your Calc. Load Max A/B tables. I've found some weird behavior over the years with that sort of arrangement. For that reason, I always leave a bit of room between the Abs. Load Target...
