klze swapped today
It was not me that did the job , it was Nagano shop here in montreal ... well they left me an old belt dont know which one but its all cracked. I hear some pssss in the engine bay and some ps ps ps ps somewhere to the exhaust .... i need to change the catback + eliminate the damn cat ,,, after upgrade the ECU and then waiting to see what i get from PRM . its not very fast for the moment , i think due to the k8 ecu and stock pipe and intake system ( i do have headers )

Re: klze swapped today
little heads up for future reference,
When it comes to a CAI the most important piece is the Filter, PRM is overpriced for what you get. for 15 dollars you can get a CAI on ebay, then go buy a nice K&N air filter, and have the same if not slightly better setup (depending on what filter you get).
Now if you were turbo this would be a whole different story, IE add a CAI to a mazdaspeed 6 and you will gain on average 20whp. NA your not going to see to much power delivered its just about the sound and making sure your engine can breath.
and a ZE is still fast on a k8 ecu/je50 vaf with stock intake and stock exhaust/no headers.

Re: klze swapped today
even on the mx3 2" stock exhaust and a new cat restricting air flow ?
i do not think its gonna feel very fast.
Well , i loose cars in the back much easier to be honest just with a little throttle, it impressed me the most.
Checked the codes , KL31 1A1 on the heads , then KL69 on the throttle body ...
I dont know but the RPM it is not going right away to the normal ... after accelerating and coming to a stop it stays at around 1k and after a while it comes to normal ... Why it does like that ?

Re: klze swapped today
i am running a straight 2.5" exhaust with after-market headers and no cat and CAI on my ZE and havent chipped my ECU yet - so you should be doing pretty good
the only problem i have with my throttle is when the engine is hot, my throttle 'sticks' - when i come to a stop and put it in neutral - the RPMs jumped up to @ 2500 and i have to pull up on my gas pedal with my foot to get them back down - its weird, but it happened with my K8 too, so i know its not the ZE...

Re: klze swapped today
IT"S off topic just want to share with somebody what happened today ,i am deprimated and full of hate on cops!
I almost want to cry !! i hate cops now , specially here in montreal. You guys are lucky if you dont get pulled off by the cops !
Well here it goes , i went to a shop to do my exhaust , they did a 2.5" pipe but the same shape like the stock , not straight, then removed the new cat , then installed an awesome muffler !
Then when i almost got home , the cops stopped me, i got a ticket of 154$ , IT'S racism guys , they really cry after hearing those engines i swear !!! I drove normally when i got the ticket , i am gonna contest this! i did not know you are not allowed to have a loud muffler here , plus after seeing so many crap hondas with damn mufflers ... cannot even compare the klze sound with the rest !!! the best engine for this car guys , if you have the chance go for it.
After i changed my exhaust i felt the KLZE FURY i swear ! this engine .. OMG .. damn ... love my seat ))
-----
so then i went back to the shop , installed the cat again , but left the same configuration , still makes like a crazy fury when i accelerate hard.
Anyway i will go tomorrow to change the free flow muffler with something that its gonna cut the KLZE fury Very deprimating , its like they bang bang MY DREAM !!!!!!!!!!
guys please what to DO ????
what do you use so the cops dont stop you !! ???? i suppose the luck?
Thank you ! ,
here just a ... deprimated guy

as far as getting pulled over - that does bite HARD - my car is loud as hell - even at idle - but considering i'm competing with harley's and V8's - cops dont give me a second look around here (dallas)

Re: klze swapped today
it really depends how the cops are where you live. Most cities have noise ordinances but it just depends on the cops with how much they enforce it. And also note that if you are doing something else like speeding and then you mouth off they can always look for more things to give you tickets on...
I've been sterotyped before for what I drive and been given alot of bogus tickets... it's the price you pay... but in the end it's still worth it to hear my klze I carry my silencer with me in the vehicle and that has gotten me out of a ticket just by installing it while the cop was there...

Re: klze swapped today
the best option (but costs a little)
http://www.apexi-usa.com/product_exhaus ... &pageNum=1" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
what this does is allows you to have a quiet muffler for when your driving around, but when you want to play flip the switch and the valve switches to where the pipe is wide open (no muffler)

Re: klze swapped today
in the video was only the cat installed ,
i went today to the shop and i have cat + resonator , at least the muffler is free flow
i got a nice long tube resonator with 3" opening ... i will put latter magnaflow cat
- it sounds now less sexy ... but still nice , now i should be fine when the cops pass
that day i did not have anything on the pipe , plus the muffler is free flow so imagine .. OMG when i went in the highway ... a sound you cannot explain , makes you feel you drive a f1 or something with high tone ...
-------
