2007 MazdaSpeed3 w/ navigation

Sticker was 28k with all the options. The changed the interior a bit in '08, the center console is black instead of grey, and the fabric on the insert in the door is different, and the mrsp went up a couple hundred bucks (probably just due to the weak dollar). It's a awesome car, I won't mind if I have to keep it. It's just tough to move a car, you know?

Ya uh, I'm gonna look like the bad guy... But, I doubt a downpipe and intake are going to add that much power. Stock hp is 263, 263 X .85 = 223 whp, if 325whp is well over 300 whp, then you're claiming a 100 whp gain? On stock boost, tmic and untuned.
If that had 300whp it would demolish sti's and evo's from a roll...
Nice speed3 tho, hopefully I'll run one someday.

No, you don't sound like the "bad" guy, you just sound like "that" guy. Stock speed3's are consistently dyno'ing 250-255, with the 3" downpipe and C-PE cai guys are hitting 300whp and 310-315 tq. With the upcoming ecu devices I don't doubt these cars will hit 350 with the specified modifications. I have not had the car dyno'd, I'm just specifying what I have seen comparable cars do.

So I am "that guy" . That guy that might know what he's talking about...
Seriously, the Mazdaspeed3 if is not a 300 hp car out the box that dyno's 250-255hp, thats a very generious dyno if there are any graphs of that much hp. If it was making that kinda of power it wouldn't be a driver's race with an SRT4 esp. with the speed's closer gear spacing. If your car was making over 300 whp (through your stock tmic, untuned, power limited in the first 3 gears), you should be able to trap 105-107 mph? Bring it to the strip and post some numbers! I do envy your rain sensing wipers though...
