Mazdaspeed 3- CPE TBE & MS CAI starup & drive off

[ksheekey]

did you get the 12" muffler or the high flow cat? and do you know the power gains you got after installing.

@ksheekey The car has the full CPE TBE with the muffler. I had 231 stock at the wheels, and 275/294 after with an intake at the same shop. Didn't get a dyno after i switched to a SRI, got the AP, BPV and FMIC and added another resonator

[silentwolf12]

are u running a muffler on this CBE or resinator at all.. or all straight piped??

[quietviewer]

my dealership told me the ms cai has some pretty serious issues with dirt and water due to the position (near the wheel well). Any problems? They refuse to install one in my ms3 so, i'm going with a cpe nano. anybody got complaints about the nano intake?

I switched to the Cobb SRI the year after this video was taken, it can be heard in some of my other vids.  I liked the SRI more, either cobb or cpe is a good unit

[sluflyer06]

the intake no longer has issues, Mazda re-released it with air flow straighteners to fix the metering issues.

How does the Mazdaspeed CAI compare to the CP-E CAI? They both seem very good. My cousin just bought a MS3 and he's interested in one of these two intakes. Are there any better CAI's than the two I mentioned above? If anyone could let me know that would be great. Thanks

cat or no cat?

cat

[praetorian2150]

its a hybrid sound of the evo and sti i think. makes sense with the engine size and setup

[sycomantz]

thats exactly how i decribe the sound of it. nice it see im not goign crazy

[ilovesilvia69]

wow these cars sound 200times better than srt-4's...hopefully they don't get played out like wrx's

[spooled3]

Yeah i like the noise it makes too :)

[Fistlegend]

Sweet! I have an 06WRX and love Cobb Stage2! You MS3 guys will NOT be sorry about the Accessport :P

[spooled3]

I know we're all pretty excited about it :)

[aaronc7]

too bad this man wasn't right, lol.

[Fistlegend]

Is there any engine management available for the MS3?

[spooled3]

There are several PNP's available, however most people are waiting for the Cobb AP (March 08) to come out.

I have the same setup, couldn't be happier.
