I'll ask in here as well. anyone know where to get a header for a 2003 Mazda speed protege with a 2.0L turbocharged engine?
Aftermarket: - Does not seem to exist. The usual Mazda suspects (Corksport and AutoEXE) have down pipes and exhaust systems, but no turbo manifolds. Factory: - Street Unit wants $1,500 for a brand new one - Royal Auto Recycling in Winnepeg lists a used one with no price - Ontario Auto Salvage in Oakville lists a used one with no price

BOSS 338s in 20x8.5 and 20x10 with 245/40 and 275/40 BFG G Force Sport Comp 2s. Ride is great, and the turn-in is crisper than the stock Pirellis, plus loads more grip. Since it isn't a race car, but more of a cruiser, I wasn't worried to much about the loss of a couple thousandths of a second in accelleration... And the speedo is spot on now (it actually read a bit high with the stockers). I wanted a modern take on a retro design, much like the car itself is. Next up is the CDC Shaker hood scoop this weekend and possibly the '70 BOSS 302 style stripes.
Oh, other new mods include the CDC front spoiler, rear blackout panel, sequential taillights, Pypes exhaust, and J&M upper and lower rear control arms with poly bushings.
Ok, did the scary thing and cut a hole in my hood for the shaker scoop/CAI setup. Love watching it shake when I hit the throttle. <A BORDER="0" HREF="http://www.supercars.net/PitLane?displayFAQ=y"><IMG BORDER="0" SRC="pitlane/emoticons/wink.gif"></A>
I think you should matte the skirts and spoiler. The scoop and front lip look a bit out of place right now.
