    I know this is a Buell forum but I got a new car. Well new to me and it is so much fun to drive! Its a 2008 Mazdaspeed3 hot hatch, it was a real surprise the only thing I haven't been able to figure out is how to wheelie it? Anyone else get a new car or have a car that's fun to drive? Modded not a prius! Sorry no hybrids Im a hater.

    I built this silverado, Supercharged with upgraded impeller at 8 lbs of boost, stainless steel long tube headers, stainless steel high flow y-pipe with resonators no cats, flow master exhaust, fuel management unit, fully functional hood scoops, 2 1/2'' level kit, air suspension in the back, 2013 z71 rims and tires, and I had more go fast stuff for it like a 2004 z06 cam, new valve springs, and push rods, but I sold it to my father in law after I totaled his truck

    Hey congrats on the car. I'm not very familiar with those but i do know its a direct injection turbocharged engine so there are big gains to be had from a simple ecu tune. After that its probably downpipe preferably with no cat or a high flow cat. Then intake/ intercooler. Im not sure at what point those start to run out of fuel and you have to start upgrading the high pressure fuel pump. Either way you should at least get this for stage 1, it will completely transform it. http://www.cobbtuning.com/MAZDASPEED...ains-ms3-07-09

    This is my 2008 audi a4. Running some blizzaks this winter and its very fun. I have a tune on mine and the power increase is very impressive from a simple flash. I also have a catless downpipe which really helps the turbo spool fast. Now i need more fuel and if i do that im putting rods, and bigger turbo in too.


    edit: I dont believe you have a car, there are no pictures.

    Bought a g37s 6mt coupe recently. Stored in the garage for winter and modifications. Will get a pic up here someday.

    Just picked up a '96 GMC Jimmy with a mild lift. Needs some minor work but it only cost 850.00.
    Bike is snowed in the garage and I needed something with decent gas mileage to get around this winter.
