    Default Ever Seen a Turbo'd Mazda Millenia(Didn't think so)

    Only one to my knowledge. I have posted this in our club forum but thought you guys would get a kick out of this one. Post up tell me what youthink.

    Mazdaspeed stole our concept(Just kidding don't sue me Mazda)


    This is a project that though it may have been a good concept, somewhere along the line it became a mishap of EPIC porportions(In more than one way)
    Anyway this project taught us a lot.

    The Cliff note would be..........."Get you Car Tuned. PERIOD!!!!!!!!"

    Here the Car and Specs:

    1996 Mazda Millenia
    2.5 KLZ V6 engine(Factory Rating of 170hp)
    Custom Turbo Kit
    Supra CT26 Turbo(Polished by Me)
    Custom Intercooler 2.5in Piping(Powdercoated "Flamer" Red:gay
    Custom 2.5in Downpipe thermal wrapped
    Custom Battery Relocation Kit
    Custom Heat Shield
    Custom 2.5in Powertech Exhaust(Mercer Special)
    255lph Walbro fuel pump
    Turbo timer
    1st Gen Mitsu BOV(re-circ'd)
    Mistu Starion FMIC
    Stock injectors (Mistake #1)
    Stock ECU (Mistake #2)
    Never Dyno'd (Mistake #3)
    Raced at the 1/8 Mile UNTUNED (Mistake #4)
    and Raced Me in a KIA Optima V6 (Mistake #5) He lost and Threw a rod

    Mistake #5 was the deal breaker. Sad but painfully Hilarious, trust me you had to be there, plus he got by a KIA.

    Yeah I know that, and it's also the same engine in the Probe Gt, and MX-6. The title says Millenia, though!
