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.
Sweet, you still gave no proof... I happen to own a car with the SAME engine as yours for nearly 2 years. 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...
