so what if the Mazda was standard and was modified exactly like your cobalt, who would be faster? Would it be a tie?

@0dragon0fable0 Prolly not because my car is very light, has a better powerband and you can't mod the Mazda 2.0L like you can my 2.2L, there's not as much stuff for them.

@MangoSmoothie16 Oh!. In the video this is not a 2010 3 its a 04-09. Headers for 04-09 are made by vibrant headers and 10+ are MSDS. (Just in case you have to 04-09 model)

@mazda3channel I'll have to look into the headers. Thanks!

@MangoSmoothie16 Yes, GP Werks does make the kit. But there are headers available for the 2.0. MSDS makes them. And I have also yet to find cams. I've searched on my forum and the only option is to get a regrind.

@mazda3channel I havent found one for the 2.0 :/ I found a GP Werks diy kit but thats a bit of a hassle. I've looked and looked. There is a intake manifold for the duratec ford engine which will fit the 2.0 with some modification but it throws the cel on. I know there is a sri and a cat back. A cai might be out there. I haven't found cams or headers.

@MangoSmoothie16 I've never known a chip o work on any car.. and there are a lot of aftermarket parts out for the 2010+ 3's. I've even seen a supercharger kit

[MangoSmoothie16]

@0dragon0fable0 Itd be a damn close race

[MangoSmoothie16]

@oldschoolmobile I know! It pisses me off there is no aftermarket for the 2.0 3 especially the 2010+. They dont make chips, you have to take out your ecu, have it shipped to a company, they reflash it, and send it back. Then your stuck with the reflash forever. Although, I do think a manual 3 would have but up a better fight. Manuals are about a second quicker 0-60. Good race though!
