Picked up some new wheels. Not to sure about the rubber, never heard of the brand before. They are called "Vredestein" They guy I bought them from said they were really sticky and fairly quiet. Hope hope. Should have them on the care in 3 weeks after the body kit is finished!

Not really a mod I did recently but I didn't get a chance to record the sound of my exhaust till yesterday. Its been on for about 3-4 months now.

Its the HKS replicas but with the Magnaflow resonated X-pipe instead of the ****ty made H pipe. No more rasp and metal tinging at high revs. Still some drone though =(.

stage 2 is gonna be upgraded fuel pump internals, and downpipe + CBE. I'm gonna do witout the exhaust though, the downpipe is tons of gains and sounds awesome with stock exhaust. it also includes colder spark plugs, a boost gauge/controller, and an oil catch can. should put me at the power i want, with the sound i want. that wont be till after xmas though.

I've worked on a Mazdaspeed 6 before. My friend got the Cobb AP and a downpipe was required for the stage 2.

Let me say this, have fun ^^ My arm was full of scratches trying to get the old downpipe off.

Downpipe and fuel pump internals with a new map tuned will be final mods for a while.
