I know I expected the prices to be a lot higher.

[TheProfessor]

Are you sure you got the pricing right.....maybe the intake is $628.76 and the item for $267.27 is really a key chain :hoho

The description in the Mazdaspeed brochure says:

Nice sound system. The cat-back sport exhaust is designed to provide an aggresive exhaust note. Stainless steel construction with polished tip that includes the MAZDASPEED logo.

[FLIPDADY]

Oh yeah for Mazda6, RX-8, and Miata owners there is also Mazdaspeed CAI available too.

[mEtH]

I\'ll probably wait until next year, gives me time to see someone else buy & install :p

[Kevin@nextmod]

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh........OMG. They should have gotten these out earlier. Now i want to throw out my HKS and my Injen. Grrrrr....

Anyone want my Injen?

How is the warranty on these items with respect to your car? If someone has these items installed, are the dealerships more friendly, should you have any issues? Or do they still ask you to take off the part and go back to stock for them to look at the car?

I suspect that as long as they were the ones who isntalled it, they have no claim to say that the parts are the cause of any problems or refuse warranty work. If they did, I would be very, very surprised.

The good thing is that they are Mazda parts and not aftermarket. So I don\'t see why any service department would give you grief for the mods.

[MAZDA Kitten]

Wow @ the prices! Good job Mazda!

Do we have any gain numbers on both of these items?

VERY VERY interested

[SourcE]

^^ ditto on the number, anyone wanna buy a slightly used umnitza SRI? ;)

[Kevin@nextmod]

I want the intake. But one big thing is i want to know how they positioned the filter. If its like the injen then i\'m getting rid of my injen and going for the mazdaspeed. But if it\'s like the AEM then I think i need to reconsider.

[MAZDA Kitten]

Couple more questions;

*Is this single or dual tip?
*What is the diameter of the piping?
*high flow cat?
*how big is the tip? and how does it look?




I am getting anxious! I wants :D

I am getting anxious! I wants :D
The system has a single slash type SS 4\" tip. Very similar to the Magnaflow system minus the extra resonator. No high flow cat option b/c it is a cat back system. The piping is 2.25\".

[MAZDA Kitten]

Thank you sir...

Someones been smokin\':p

Thats $720 tax in...*Club price...for some SS pipe and a stainless steel tip. Which thankfully at least provides a **aggresive exhaust note**:sarc

I don\'t think it\'s a deal. But at least they thought of us:)

[DrunknFoo]

punch a hole in your oem muffler = MS exhaust system? :sarc

Well, I was planning to purchase a cai/sri and an exhaust system around April, I guess I\'ll wait for some dynos till I decide. At least MS gives us some performance options...

Have you ever priced out a Japanese cat-back exhaust? Obviously not because if you had you\'d know that they cost just as much if not more, and considering this is a Mazda part, it really is a decent price.

do you have any pictures ? especially of the CAI

Can the CAI fit an auto sedan ?

[DeLaY_NoMoRe]

Is there any MazdaSpeed Short Shifter available? :sarc

[Jetlag]

Yeah, there\'s a short shifter available. I\'ve got it and love! Although there are many (check the U.S. boards) who don\'t b/c of the akward bend that it has towards the driver. I like the bend, b/c it provides a more comfortable feel. The shifts are silky smooth and there\'s a slight reduction in the shifter throw. I paid about $180.00 for mine after taxes and shipping.

Where can I get the MazdaSpeed Short Shifter?:)

[SourcE]

Can I suggest that Joe or someone else in the know adds a stickified thread in the
\"Buy / Sell - Automotive Parts\" specifically for MazdaSpeed Accessories, and maybe one also for MoT supplies?

Just a thought, :D

[chinsterr]

so... is anyone going to be the first to purchase one of these badboys ? Or will it have to be me ?

Dang, it would make the decision alot more easier if there was a dyno for the CAI .

So what do you guys think, INJEN or MAZDASPEED ?


Chinsterr

[MazdaTree]

MazdaSpeed....
-cheaper than injen
-you can be a mazdaspeed pioneer:)
-mazda cant give you warranty problems

[mEtH]

Injen sits a lot higher then the mazdaspeed one...less chance of having to deal with any problems should they arise. No matter what I suggest covering up the filter for protection from water that falls into the fender wall from above.

[MAZDA Kitten]

Looking through the MazdaSpeed catalog they have some nice stuff available for our cars.

I am just curious how much are the MazdaSpeed coilovers, lightened flywheel and the sport clutch?

oh.. and just out of curiousitys sake how much is part # QWWS-3K-G40-01 (I\'m scared to know but they are hot hot hot)

According to the Mazdaspeed catalog, the lightweight flywheel is classified as an \"orange\" warranty, that being....nothing to do with broli and his jaffa-wagon :sarc

I am unsure of whether or not the CAI and exhaust are also classified as \"orange\", but who knows....

Maybe Joe?

[FLIPDADY]

The CAI is considered and \"Orange\" performance accesory so it\'s sold as is. While the exhaust system is a \"Green\" performance accesory and has a 1 year/20,000km warranty.

It says


This attention-grabbing wheel (18x8JJ) is a strong one-piece design, and lightweight at only 8.0kg

They have another rim similar looking but it is a forged magnesium, 18x8 as well and weighs 7.3kg and one piece as well.

I got a copy with your name on it.

[TheProfessor]

If an item has this \"orange\" warranty (i.e. none), if something goes wrong with your car as a result of that item, it would still be covered under the manufacturers warranty, correct?

[SourcE]

Purchaser also acknowledges that there will be no warranty coverage for any part or accessory that fails as a result of the installation of a MAZDASPEED \"Orange\" performance part.

My understanding would be no, they are not covered by warranty, Joe can you confirm?

[RedRaptor]

I believe Orange means that its just like any other aftermarket part you install on your car. If the CAI causes your car to throw a CEL and other issues, there is no \"warranty\" against that. You would have to pay the dealership to look at your car OR take off the CAI. But if the item is \"defective\", I am sure there is \"warranty\" on the CAI.

[chinsterr]

Finally picked up the catalog from flip today --- nice to put a face to the name


Looking through the catalog there appears to be alot of cosmetic stuff ! Does anyone need a mazdaspeed carbon fiber rearview mirror cap ? (say that 10x fast)

Hey MazdaKitten

Which dealership did you get the brochure from? And what other prices do you have?

[Cardinal Fang]

You can download the MazdaSpeed Brochure from here for those that are interested.

I got it from Mountain Mazda but the prices you\'ll have to ask Flipspeed for :D

Hey fang that\'s the old Mazdaspeed brochure. The new brochure isn\'t online yet.

[eguiyab]

Hey Joe.

So when you expecting any to arrive? I was looking into getting a new AEM CAI but the Mazdaspeed one looks good. Main question is if it fits an ATX... otherwise Ill have to go with the ATX AEM one.

Thanxs

lol i already asked that question ... read page 2 or 3 of this thread noob (jk)

but the question still remains, does this fit auto ?


chinsterr

[CoolColombian]

I would say there\'s not difference between a CAI for an auto or one for a stick, since both cars has the exact same part and in the same place.

When i bough my injen there was only one for both, so i don\'t think that should be a difference for AEM, or Mazdaspeed, not sure.

But about the CAI i still think they will do the same in a stick or in an auto, maybe in the stick you can get more performance doing 0-60 Km/h.

[chinsterr]

Actually, if my memory serves me correctly then i think AEM has two versions of thier CAI.

***Thats why i couldnt buy Sabio\'s AEM ... as it was one for a manual.

Hey all here is the 2006 Mazdaspeed Brochure http://www.mazdausa.com/MusaWeb/pdf/brochures/2006_mazdaspeed_brochure_acc.pdf

[Broli]

I just talked to westowne mazda,
and the parts guy told me that the CAI
would be covered under warranty, if it was installed there,
i am not sure what to believe as it seems pretty clear from
that notice (it is from the US though, would canada end up with different codes?,)
maybe he is just tellin me that so i will buy it
or maybe he is just telling me that because, his dealership will
cover anything that happens?
they did cover my MAF sensor when it went like a month ago

i do have an intake, but i get CELs and, i still do need to shield the area
but . . . if i would have warranty coverage i would feel better, i would still
shield the area, probably give them a shield to install with it!
hmmmm?

what do you guys think?

(i would go to MoT, but u guys are too far for me to make it to before u close!)

The Westowne guys are right. The CAI has been changed from an Orange to a Green warranty. I say go for it Broli!

OnlineMazdaParts.com says the samething about the CAI here. (http://www.mazda3forums.com/index.php?topic=33080.30)

[Broli]

nice!!

thanks
now i feel better!
ok done, i will be the guinea pig

i hear they are on a 2-3 week backorder,

man, i will be able to sleep better, knowing that
i don\'t have to worry about my damned intake!

I am really impressed that Mazda is providing warranty on their Mazdaspeed parts. They can potentially tap into a lot of the people on the fence when it comes to modding their car by providing some sort of warranty. I think for a lot of people its not about the money spent, its the hassle of warranty issues. If Mazda continues this trend by providing warranty and reasonable pricing on their Mazdaspeed parts, I don\'t see why anyone would buy an aftermarket product if Mazdaspeed offered the same products.

+1 Totally agree!
that is a smart move!
everyone feels better

probably changed it from Orange to Green, because the orange says something about not approved for driving on roads, only for racing, that would have been dumb for and intake . . . they wouldn\'t sell any)
