| I moved this to the Import Garage section instead of the into's. As far as your question goes, I can sell you some of the stock parts I took off my speed3 if you want them. I've got a down pipe and full exhaust and the stock BOV if you want to save money from buying them new. In answer to your PM, the best places I have found for performance mazda parts are: http://www.therpmstore.com/ Love them, I bought my exhaust from them http://www.pt-performance.com/ These guys have hard to find stuff but shitty customer service http://www.cp-e.com/ I have their cat back exhaust fucking awesome http://www.maperformance.com/ Great guys....best customer service but not many parts for an n/a mazda http://www.protegegarage.com/ I know nothing about these guys but they have a lot of stuff If you need anything else that you can't find on those sites, let me know I have more. | |

| Well, keep in mind that in order for it to be any use to you, you would need a turbo manifold, a turbo, and an intake and top mount intercooler for the speed.
I wouldn't even be able to guess if the downpipe would even work for the sedan. Would have to check and see how much difference there is in the firewall and undercarriage.
Don't just go buying parts haphazzardly until you know exactly what you need, and I can help you with some of that.
Have you looked on any of the mazda forums to see if others have done this before? I assume someone has. Also, you might want to hit up mzdagrl3 on here too. She has a pretty heavily modified sedan. | |

| No worries, you will get there. But in the meantime DONT BUY ANY PARTS UNLESS YOU ASK ME, or are 100% sure you need or can use them. Seriously I don't want to see you get ripped off. | |

| apparently there's only 2 main manufacturers for the intake manifolds that you can purchase for our cars.. the Weapon R & Cosworth manifolds
from what I've read..most of the people on the forums seem to love the weapon R manifolds.
but then again, everyone has their own opinion

| Intake manifolds are a huge waste of money on a na 4cyl car in my opinion, I would get a cheap intake on ebay though, not gonna do a whole lot but at least your not throwing a ton of money out the window. I doubt theres many options for your car when it comes to turbocharging but theres always an ebay turbo kit, I rarely ever would recommend this but its cheap (price and quality) but you can always upgade later on. Whats great about those kits is they almost always use garrett flanges so you'll have alot of different options down the road if you plan on upgrading turbos.
