Spencer@CorkSport Got a 2009 MS3

[Spectrix]

Do you mean... you might have test fitted it..?

[SpencerC]

So I'll finally have some time this weekend to tweak on the car. Haven't been home for a free weekend since buying it.
Anyway, have a few parts to just start small with. Some of the parts I'm installing purely because I want to see what they are like, before removing them and installing something better, or..... bigger??

CorkSport Stage II Short Ram Intake Mazdaspeed 3 SRI | Stage II Power Series Short Ram Intake

CorkSport LED Light Kit LED interior lights | Mazda LED Lights

CorkSport Short Shift Plate Mazdaspeed 3 Short Shift Plate | Short Shifter

CorkSport Shifter Bushing Set CORKSPORT Mazda and Mazdaspeed Shifter Bushing Set

CorkSport Rear Motor Mount Inser http://www.corksport.com/corksport-rear-motor-mount-insert-for-mazdaspeed-3.html

Hopefully in the coming weeks when I get more time I can do a TMIC and Exhaust.

Oh.... I'm also running some super secret parts that I know you all will want....

[Easter Bunny]

You should just go straight to a three inch intake............oh wait.......better get working on one.

[spdtrux]

no AP?.....no HPFP Internals?...... Zoom Boom?

I bought my 07 MS3 w/99k on it(cbe/sri/1"drop). Shes STILL A BEAST with the miles and all the pre/post molesting .

BUT before i bolted on anything,a week even before i Bought it.

I had ordered Cobb AP and hpfp internals!

Its what was most recommended by MSF.

Congrats w/ Genwon ... I know I love mine.

[AlsChopShop]

Spencer....

Unless these are freebee parts.... Instead of exhaust, go with the Cobb accessport. I just got one from mine and couldn't believe the difference it makes with your SRI/TIP combo.

I'd like to see the shroud you end up getting for your cs tmic :3

Might switch to a FMIC... want my andoized black cs tmic? (:

I do like the look of your black TMIC, but you'll probably get more for it out of someone else.

Also.... still no blue swaybars.... Sorry.

He really just wants you to try to use your tmic shroud.

its okay, it's not the most vital part so I can defintly wait (:

Didn't joel say it was just a matter of putting a box together? maybe i heard wrong lol

And it depends on how much you'd want for it (: but I'm guessing you got a good discount from CS hehe

And I'd bet spencer would get an improved shroud design from what you and me would have been able to buy for our cs tmic's alex. Well, at least they handled my issue well (:

[hnda etr]

@Spencer@CorkSport; needs to fight for getting these new CS products made for the First Gens since he has one... Bat box, Coolant tank...

[SpencerC]

I'm trying.

Also to everyone questioning if I have an AP.

I do. Sorry I forgot to mention that. It's a V2. Already been running some logs and of course just running an OTS Map for the CS Intake and TIP that I installed this weekend.

I might see if I can "borrow" a battery box soon and get it to fit. No promises or guarantees though, just a thought.

[silvapain]

It will fit a GenJuan no problem, as long as the intake is smaller than 3.5". At least that's the issue I had on my Juan with the prototype box.

Only time I've ever had an issue being too big at my 3.5"

tapafuck

[SpencerC]

Here it is test fitting in my MS3. As you can see it doesn't fit perfect. With minor modification it should work fine, but for now it is not being sold for the Gen 1 due to the fitment issues.


You can see the hole in the back doesn't line up.


The red circles show the locations the box is hitting slightly thus causing the mis-alignment.


Hopefully our engineers can get this modified slightly, until then, it doesn't work for Genjuan without modification, so in our book, it doesn't work at all.

[SpencerC]

Took a few WOT logs tonight, everything looks good to me. Had what looks like some phantom knock to start this log, didn't appear in any other.

[Kyllo24]

I want that box. If they are waiting a long time to come out with the genwon I might just buy this box and modify it to fit.

I wanted to plug it into vdyno but that log is missing these :C

Time, RPM, Throttle Position

Nice that everything looks great though!

Whatcha mean? They show up in mine.

[breakfstincluded]

darn really? maybe my computer is just pooping out. my vdyno tells me those parameters are missing when I try to plot it.

How did you numbers look with just an intake and ap?

[SpencerC]

Odd, I haven't tried Vdyno yet.

same here. for some reason when i open it in excel all the formatting is lost so it can't grab the correct info.

also, where are you all doing pulls around here? there's nothing but hills for dayz....

Since I go to corvallis sometimes there's some nice places there.. uhm... there are some enclosed exits onto 26 that I used to use lol, it's from cedar hills blvd onto 26w. They're nicely divided from the freeway for the duration of a 3rd gear pull, and the best part is that it doesn't merge, if you stay on it takes you to 217s pretty soon after the pull is done with time to spare though. Definitely have to go late night though.

The beginning is a slight incline, but conisstency is what's most important with logging, since theyre really only comparable to eachother.

well that's like a stone's throw away from me.... but that on ramp isn't very flat. after the clover it drops downhill.

river road south of farmington has a straight and fairly flat stretch (prob log it each way), might have to sneak out there sunday.

Yeah there's just enough time after you get up from cedar hills blvd to comfortably do a 3rd gear pull before it turns and takes you to 217s. I like the minimal amount of exposure to other traffic lol

Definitly open to ideas though... I'd probably be willing to go farther if I had a laptop to look at log data sooner (:

[ABolewski]

I know I'm late to the party but what a great find. From your first post sounds like a perfect Jaun to buy.
MS3>Miata

[SpencerC]

Thanks! And i was doing this down near vancouver lake and frenchmans bar in vancouver. Its prett perfect.

[SofaKingAwesome]

Spencer, try selecting the "default parameters" setting under datalogs on your AP if you're having trouble with vdyno.

Thanks. I'll have to mess with it more.

[SpencerC]

TaDa! Does that look right. I think what happened was that I used OpenOffice on the computer I was on, not Excel which tweaked the tables. I reloaded the info opened in Excel and then made sure Vdyno had the tables names properly for AFR (Actual AFR (AFR)) and TPS (Throttle Position (%)) etc. etc.

[breakfstincluded]

nice! I think vdyno's work best only when compared to other logs on the same car anyway but

CF=1.01 and Smoothing: 3 are common settings people use here, supposedly they mimic a dynojet much closer

It's also okay to start at 2500rpm in 3rd and 4th gear logs, this is the range people usually log like when sending them to E-Tuners.

I read that after running the first one. Here is it with CF 1.01, and smoothing of 3.

Probably more realistic.

[breakfstincluded]

It's hard to tell with everyone dyno-ing in different places, but that's pretty much how my logs look too, have you been getting tuned? Or will you save that for after more mods?

this is pretty fully bolted reecntly



I probably had a little slip or something on the log that says 277 lol

[SpencerC]

Hmm. Ya I would guess a minor slip there. I'd be happy for 277!

I'm just running an OTS stage I currently. I'm thinking of contacting a tuner soon and seeing if we can work something out, the problem is I'm having parts pulled on and off fairly frequently so I don't want to have to constantly change tunes.

How about pulling off your stock bat box and testing the CS bat box so I can get one finally? ;-)

I'd love too. As seen above I test fit it, and they told me they would be working on it. Took photos, measurements etc. but I think the priority has fallen back.... what with HPFP's, BPV's, Intakes and more that are being worked on/just were released.

Honestly I'd have no issue buying this myself if I had a 3" intake and grinding away just the small portion where it touched, plus enlarging the bolt holes. That's just my thought.

agreed now that you own a MS3 you are one of us and are now obligated to share any information you have.

[SpencerC]

... I'll do my best.
