I like where this is going.

Plans?

Basically a car that does exceptionally well in my autocross events that I can still live with everyday.

I have the Cobb Stage 1 Map flashed into the ECU, next I'm buying the ETS V2 Catback exhaust. From there I'm not sure what I'm going to do. I want to go with a set of coilovers like I had on my Mazdaspeed3 and an aftermarket adjustable rear sway bar and a few other things. For wheels I'm going to go with a set of 18x8.5 Enkei RPF1s with 245/45R18 Yokohama ADVAN Neova AD08's, Dunlop Direzza Sport Z1 StarSpecs, or Bridgestone Potenza RE-11.

nice addition!!!

Nothing like Plugging in 20% more horsepower.

Boost is peaking at 23.5psi with traction control off and the car is pulling hard right up to 7500rpms.

This Stage 1 Map really woke the car up. Too bad it's really wet outside and I can't do a complete test.

So you're boostin 23.5 pounds?! DAAAAAAAAAMN.

Jerry! Smooches.

When I rode in my buddy's Evo and saw the gauge spike 23-24 I was like WTFOMGBBQ!?!?! Then I remembered that lil 2.0 needs that boost to get all 4 of them there wheels a spinnin.

Good lookin car right there.

Yes, by quite a large margin. The Evo from the factory out handles my coilover'd, sway bar'd, everything else done to it, Mazdspeed3. It was shocking when I test drove the X and threw it around some corners at speeds that were at least 10mph faster than what I could of done in the Mazda. I'm quite impressed.

it was at the office. Thank you and excuse my worried e-mail. UPS isn't as reliable as they should be down here and they neglected to put a note on my door saying they had delivered it to the office.
Thanks again.
Do y'all have the ETS V2 exhaust available for the EVO X?

MAPerformance
We sure do, are you looking for just a cat back or a turbo back system with downpipe?

Hey, it's Michael from Extreme Turbo Systems (ETS) - We have received your order from MAPerformance and it was scheduled to ship out last week, but due to a delay in our shop it's leaving either this evening or tomorrow morning. If you have any questions, you can contact me at 360-263-3748.

Again, we are sorry for the delay, but we are trying to get this out as fast possible. We will have a working tracking number emailed to you when the shipment is picked up.

Thanks for your understanding,

for the 3rd time I've gotten an email like this for my exhaust. I'm starting to get really irritated.

3rd email...? and your sitting pretty?!?

psh.

my money would be coming back to me.

Mox, didn't realize you ordered the exhaust from Howell...

MoxHair · Post by **MoxHair** » Wed Aug 12, 2009 6:05 pm

I got a great deal on my exhaust and I've said my peace to the vendors I'm dealing with. If it doesn't get sent out this week I'm going to request a refund.

Just sent over the tracking number. I believe I have only been in contact with you 1x, letting you know the status of the shipment and now sending over a tracking number. If you have any questions in the future, give me a call!

Thanks!

You did, but i received emails from maperformance saying the product would be shipped. Once on Monday July 27th, the second on August 6th. I've had a tracking number from maperformance since the July 27th date.

Excuse me for being alittle miffed about this situation. I ordered the exhaust on July 24th and wanted it on the car before a championship autocross event this weekend (Aug 15th and 16th)

Sorry, the problem with ordering from other vendors is we are not aware of the situtation at hand. We had no clue about the dead line. The Evolution X Exhaust System has a 2-3 week build time, since we build them in batches. We are currently training another guy so we can get the time line faster on the v2. The intercoolers and other products ship out almost same day most of the time.

If you have questions, let me know! Sorry about the delay on the order. We try to be as prompt as possible.

Thanks,

Michael
