Hello there

My ride is a extreme boosted 1992 Mazda MX-3 setup. Love the car for reasons that no one will ever dream of doing too... here a pic so enjoy.

Hope this site a good site

lets discuss that intake manifold and where it came from. we have recently discovered that our intake manifolds are the key to unlocking the power above 6 grand.

Looks like a serious setup you have there, welcome!

No offense, but I'm thinking English isn't your first language, right?

That all looks damned impressive.
I must know what you paid for both of those manifolds, and what are the runner lengths for the IM? PM me if you don't feel like posting for the masses.
