One of the weakest link in our system, is the ignition system, thats why, for my futre setup, I want to go turbo, with mazdamaniacs upgrade turbo add on, and the mazsport, with the Cobb AP, you could push out around 350 hp out of the renesis.

I was about to pick up the Mazsport, even though its not a power mod, you do get that extra HP, that we were losing due to the weak point of the stock ignition. BHR is also coming out with thier own upgraded coil system. Right now I am waiting for BHR's solution then will decide which to go with.

If I were to choose the bed mods for a NA, it would be the Short Shifter, a straight pipe, the Cobb Accessport, and the ignition upgrade. Then you have the intakes and exhaust really only for the sound.

Thanks for your list. I will have to do some reading on those items. When is BHR expected to release? Doesn't the straight pipe make things too loud? Does anyone going to RPM have the Cob or ignition mod? Still lots to learn

Qwtre has the Cobb, PM him and he might bring it along. If you don't get in touch with him, pm me back, I'll call him and ask. None of us have the ignition mod yet, I also forwarded a msg with info on the coil from BHR to you.

Got the sprint booster but....

As an update, I received the Sprint Booster yesterday. I tried to install it but to no avail. It hooked up fine to the wire going to the engine but could not get a secure connection from it to the gas pedal. So she is being shipped back to the retailer.

The good news is that thanks to driving Gecko's car at the RPM meet, I think that I can get my throttle response needs met with the Agency Power Crank Pulley. His car was much more responsive than mine and he attributes that to this $144 pulley -- go figure
