    I'm a little curious about the Mazdaspeed 6 too.

    I'm guessing it would put down 235 in stock form. :sx:

    The Cosworth heads and 544 whp are *NOT* in my little white car. Mine (the one in the pick is a near stock motor, but a SERIOUS suspension)

    The Heads and 544 whp were a customer's STi with EVERYTHING...

    That was a "mostly" planned photo ;)

    Just make sure he's got the same grin that Will (I think that's him sitting co-pilot) has on his face.

    List-o-mods added to first post ;)

    What a JOY to drive. Right now it's only got 3.5 cylinders (1 still SLIGHTLY bent exhaust valve, only 80 psi of compression in that one) and I'm looking forward to the stock seat and belt, and a good brake bleed, but it is already truly ENJOYABLE to drive. We had it on GARBAGE tires, a totally unknown alignment, and it still lapped as fast as my Spec Miata...

    Despite my promises to myself and the wife that I wasn't going to do much to it, the draw of EM might be too strong. Partially for the torque gains, but also for the revs... We're just barely popping the limiter between the Carousel and the U-turn. another 500 revs will do wonders for laptimes ;)

    Here's another pic showing my disbelief at the cars "flickability": (however all students should always keep both hands on the wheel at all times ;) )

    I-speed? I think one of their reflashes is in my future. I just don't want to have to run 91 right now because I'm poor.

    ???? Why would Scott do that? He does his own tunes and darn well at that!

    If he is leaving the drivetrain essentially stock I didn't think a standalone would really fall in line with his plan.
