Hey guys from the english speaking countries ^^

Matt from south east of Paris area, 25km far away actually from the capital

I'm own a Mazda 3 MPS 2010 since april 2016.

79 000km in 2016, now almost 138 000

Mods and power when I bought it :
TMIC Corksport
Rear engine mount Corksport
Stage 2 Intake Corksport (inlet etc)
Autotech HPFP Internals
E15 mix tuned
And was around 310hp at the crank

Then I changed the setup a bit :
Removed the 200 cell cat, and put an inox pipe
Added a 3 inches HTP intake
JBR Boost Controller 3 Way solenoid
Short Shift Plate Corksport
EIbach Pro Kit springs (-25/30mm)
E42 mix etc...
Had 328hp & 516Nm at the crank
in 2018/2019

Now 2020, January I did :
Downpipe 3inch from ebay (full catless)
XS Power V3 exhaust manifold
BNR S3
E50 mix
It produces now around 350whp but haven't tested on dyno yet

I found this stock block + BNR S3 setup here and copied the boost linearity :

(Redline seems banned since a while)

So I did few tests, haven't the full 24/24.5psi from 5500 to redline, but able to keep 23.5. Will try to add a bit more although it's quite hot under the hood etc since I have no FMIC and the temp reached almost 165° Farenheit (73°C) when boosting from all the way from 3th then 4th and 5th.. 30°C outside temp (86° F)

A performance test with versa tuner free gave 5.2s for 60 to 100mph, so it's not bad at all ^^

Next mods and projects :

FMIC
PCV Plate upgrade + OCC
+1 PSI on the high revs from 5000/5500
Balance Shaft Delete
Bars from LTUV (alibaba chinese supplier) to have a better handling
Bilstein B14
Upgraded front brakes > Porsche Cayenne Turbo 4 pistons calipers + 356mm discs
Cold air box (not very useful but why not.. had one from CS at the beginning but sold)
New end links, sway bars, add more rigidity under the chassis, the car isn't new and it's time to replace parts..
New tyres : Current PS4 Michelin 225/40R18 > Target are Goodyear SuperSport 235/40R18 for a better traction / handling / stability (equals PS4S)

That's all folks :)

Oh and I forgot to mention.. I'm admin of the "Mazda Performance Series France" group on Facebook

Have a Youtube Channel, and Instagram as well

and am the organizer of few events with many Mazdaspeeds ;)

Thank you guys for this warm welcome

The color of my MS3 is white pearl ^^ as you can see on my profile picture

I'm currently thinking about ... BNRS4 + FMIC Mishimoto M-Line ... for boosting more and less BATs :)

Main issue is to choose the right piping kit + see how the stock crashbar has to be adapted in order to install the core..

A CX Racing piping kit was chosen but he doesn't say which one exactly fitted !
