    What is this part?

    Dude I couldn't find ANYTHING spraying brake cleaner all over the engine bay. I'll get some more data in a little bit and post some stuff here.

    How many miles on your MS3

    1) 2009 2) 186402 3) Rebuilt motor, zero miles on it. Hopefully I start putting some new miles on it tomorrow! 4) My girlfriend and I daily drive our Dodge Nitro, and now that the rebuild feels like a racecar it's probably gonna stay that way hahaha. Bonus question: What was your main driver...

    Need guidance on used MS3

    Just had this problem over the summer, ended up being the rings and very polished cylinder walls. Did a total teardown and overbore to 88mm. All in for the rebuild will be a few grand. Ordered all the parts and I did it all myself, genuinely not TOO bad of a project and super educational.

    Why does my intercooler sound like its sucking SO much more air?

    This is a link to my car running. Recently did a full rebuild, and the only real addon performance stuff I did was a new turbo inlet pipe. It has a full Cobb intake, no tune w stock ECM. Did a balance shaft delete and a new rear motor mount and holy god this idles like an actual race car...

    What is this part?

    @Enki did that VCTS fix and replaced the purge valve and the car is running amazing right now. Really happy with it, now I am just curious about the sound/volume of air being sucked through the intercooler by the turbo. I did a pretty good vacuum leak check this morning, sprayed brake cleaner...

    What is this part?

    @Enki this thread refers to the exact problem I had, same little broken plastic piece and everything. https://www.mazdaspeeds.org/index.php?threads/how-to-p2006-free-fix.9142/ I wasn't throwing P2006 but this could be a fix for me anyways...definitely gonna do this tomorrow and see what happens!

    What is this part?

    Sounds good. You wouldn't happen to know what part I'm referring to, would you? I think I have to get that replaced before I can get the car running again.

    What is this part?

    Yeah I am in Tucson, west side near Star Pass! If you ever wanna come down, I got lunch and a few beers for ya. I am...probably 98% sure I have all the vacuum lines and electrical connections plugged in properly. I have bluedriver for my phone, so if there is some way to monitor/log via that app...

    What is this part?

    I've been struggling after a full engine rebuild lately, so anyone's input would be appreciated! Got everything back together, started the car up and it is running kind of weird. No real mods besides a few bolt ons. New turbo inlet pipe, cobb intake, rebuilt stock K04 turbo, balance shaft...

    Exhaust spring bolts too short?

    @Cfoldone that was my thought as well, but these are the only free bolts there are, as in, the mid-pipe has studs welded in that go through two holes in the rest of the exhaust.

    Exhaust spring bolts too short?

    Right, in your second picture where those spring bolts are... I tried having mine situated the same way, but when I went to tighten it all down and "bottomed out the bolt" (the shoulder of the bolt hitting the down pipe), the springs remained uncompressed and there was way too much play in...

    Exhaust spring bolts too short?

    So fucking frustrated and over it right now. I went to bolt my exhaust back up and I could not figure out the bolt/spring combo for the life of me. If anyone knows the correct orientation of the bolts/springs to bolt the stock downpipe to the mid-pipe, I would be eternally grateful because it...

    HELP. Need retaining clip for Slave Cylinder!

    Just as the title says, finishing up a full rebuild and I can't find this slave cylinder hydraulic line retaining clip for the life of me. I would much rather find this little inexpensive clip, than spend 140 bucks from Edge replacing the entire slave cylinder. Does anyone know where I can...

    what part is this?!

    I tore apart my engine in July, and finally got around to getting everything back together this week IE block, head, and getting all the parts I need. I thought I did a good enough job labeling things but apparently I did not, and now I am at a loss for what part this is! Can anyone help me...
