I'm not in it, so don't bother. It's on FOX - 9PM on the Eastcoast... no clue about programing for the rest of North America.

Well I've been driving the 6 pretty much all week. LT Headers, BBK Catted H pipe and GT Take off cat back. Sounds nice, wish it was a little deeper though...

Ive also recently started putting together a turbo kit for the mazda. I'll be one of the first ever (other than prototyping from vendors) to boost the 2.5 =) my biggest concern so far is finding someone who can tune the new PCM...

There are a bunch of different clocks for the i7, I am going to go mid range to get into it cheap and upgrade later when the prices on the 990x 6 core come down.

First year of the new engine. Up until now it was a 2.3 and they redeveloped it as a 2.5. TURNS OUT, the 2.5 comes with forged steel pistons and rods as well as a keyed and forged crankshaft. I'll be one of the first to turbo this engine so there aren't any low compression pistons available, which sucks, so I might just get the cylinder head all bowled out to drop the compression a little (9.7:1) Also, I'm a little worried about valve float so I'm trying to find out what sort of springs I should be looking for. I'm hoping they haven't changed the cylinder heads at all, that way I could use valvetrain aprts for the speed 3 as well as turbo manifolds, because if I can't I'll need to fab my own or mount the turbo literally under the car...
