I’m looking into buying another speed 3 why because why not. I’m obsessed and they are fun easy to work on if you have the right tools and I do. Also see it as somewhat an investment as these cars start to dwindle in numbers and become a rarity. I plan on keeping them for years to come.

Hello,
My speed3 is running low on boost (13.57 psi is the most I can get from it if I’m pushing it hard, and this is in 5th) but seemingly not leaking boost when I tested leaks from the turbo back. I can only make 8psi in a 3rd gear wot test.
I’m running the Mazda CX-7 turbo (K0422-582) that...

Thanks for any help.
