yup. he just needed the muffler to keep it a little quieter. hebuilt a full 3" for it and didnt want it to be ridiculous.

also, the CAI is awesome. i love it. makes mid range much better and BOV sounds great. im really pleased with it.

my 3" exhaust should only help(whenever it decides to show up)

sounds like a quick car you got there solo. I was thinking you were still in the area so I was thinking there might be another modified 944 turbo in the area. Though I bet my turbo is bigger than his alot bigger t67 😉

to be honest i think the mazdaspeed cai is a little loud. I’m not one for a whole lot of extra noise though. Nice to actually hear the turbo though 🙂

Covering the wheel well vents takes the edge off of the sound perfectly imo. Which I recommend anyways, for the winter months.

Considering I did not write the original post/tread start, your comments are null and void. There was no reason to verify it was real life because I did not write it. Chris was on my screen name as stated.

crush? its the same engine… :lol:

It may win cause it’s lighter tho…

from a dig, I’d imagine the AWD with a good driver would make it a good race!

If my speed6 had a CAI and exhaust, I think it may even be a good roll race. Our exhausts are so restrictive…

BTW, mine is Titanium. I havent seen a red one around here. I do see a black one, gray one and white one from time to time

yea it may be the same engine but the the fwd and weight play a large part in the roll factor, i drive both the speed3 and 6 atleast once a week I’m very familiar with both…

AWD drivetrain loss + weight is a sure formula for a speed6 loss from a roll… from a dig to 80 maybe

The speed3 is lighter, so it would probably be able to edge out it’s big brother. The speed6 is up around 3500lbs i believe.

Now you put a couple fat people in the speed3, no chance 😉

edit, yeah
