does anyone know the 0 to a 100km time with the klze

There's a member on here that knows almost everything, even the question you just asked. His username is Search... and he even has his own link, which streamlines all questions. He's good!

The FAQ pages are helpful too with that info. No one wants to re-post the same things, which is why someone will always be sarcastic. You can find the specs on these forums just by searching.

I just wasted quite a few seconds reading this thread.

1 - The language barrier is pretty crazy
2 - Props to this guy, but he definately isn't a crafty fellow. For sure going the hard way, for less gain.
3 - I can't believe I just wasted those seconds.

LOL....

i cant believe you guys forget about me in such little time i dont post on the forum
Well the_kid, i am from Portugal ... but :
Buna , ce faci ?
When i bought my MX3 K8 , i went to a dyno test full stock and i got this :

Full Stock
torque = 133.2nm
crank power = 114,8 bhp
wheel power = 93,4 hp

i was quite upset because the car felt quicker, and it was a 1800cc ... i mean .. wtf !
in Portugal is quite hard to even get a KLDE, let alone a KLZE . So, i started to try and upgrade my engine like you
I have done a few mods, most of them people in this forum said i was wasting my money, some mods i loved, some mods i did not even noticed any improvement. But when they were like this , i made another dyno:

Iridium plugs - K1 Racing 10mm plug wires - no cat - MazdaSpeed exhaust tip - fuel pressure raised - MazdaSpeed groundwire kit

torque = 160.8nm
crank power = 136,8 bhp
wheel power = 108,0 hp

To the people that said the k8 cant be chip-tuned, ive been told many times by my old mechanic that mine would not be the first one with that upgrade. i just could not afford it at the time.

with ebay stuff , i got an upgrade of :
torque + 27.6 nm
crank power + 22 hp
wheel power + 14.6 hp

btw, i have posted here both dyno sheet's ...
on the other hand, i can understand its better to just swap to a klde, and i will ASAP, but my priorities changed ...
i will return , just wait

Well,hello again guys,i see some of them are pissed off a bit,but now it doesnt matter coz i`ve sold the car 3 weeks ago .. i was forced to do that,after i put like 2000euros in it!
Anyway,i`ll move to Dubai soon .. for a while,and after i come back i want to REBORN a new project with another Mazda MX3!
Btw,i still have the LSD,i never use it on my car,still in box,so if anyone interested let me know!

depends on the value sent to Portugal ...
