How are ya'll doing?
I bought a broken 2007 mazdaspeed 3 around this time last year. The engine had low compression and spun a bearing on cylinder 4. I ended up 2.5 swapping it from a ford explorer found at Pull-A-Part. I also swaped the 2.3 timing to the 2.5 timing, fixed the P0012 code with a new cam, replaced the turbo, and replaced the cheap cold air intake with the stock intake. I don't want to do anything crazy with it, I just want it as a daily driver. This is my first car out of college and I think its great! There is a boost issue that im trying to hunt down. But I don't know if its apropriate to talk about that in this post as this is an introdcution post, or start a dedicated one about the boost issue.
Hope ya'll have a good day!
