I see a silver very frequently around NW, and a blue one. It seems like I'm always in my wife's car when I see them, though!

Well, I do service myself, but I've been getting my TSB work done at IPAC, 410 between Culebra and Ingram. There should be something decent closer to you, though.

Been getting excellent service from World Car on Fredericksburg about a half-mile inside the loop. I've got nothing but good things to say about sales and service.

Intrigue 8, I guess your asking me? I have a Red 8 got it from a dealership in Corpus Christi back in Aug. Im just trying to find a place to take car of the TSB stuff. Not sure if I have mflash, from what ive read on here I dont. This stuff is all new to me just looking for some help. My previous ride was a old 96 chevy truck. Thanks for the replies and help.

I got the L-flash in Florida, and IPAC flashed me to M. I had it in for the a/c ****, and said somrthing along the lines of, "I haven't had the latest PCM update, and I know that Mazda has made that pretty much mandatory." Mark said, "no problem we'll flash it," and they did.

Anyone else going to the UTSA orchestra concert tomorrow night? They're going to have a solo violinist. I am so stoked - it'll be my sons' first time.

Just wanted to let everyone know that a majority of the rotary community meets up at Bennigans located at I-10 & Wurzbach. If you want to eat, show up at 10. If shooting the **** suits you, showing up later will work.

www.alamorxclub.com for more info.

from my understanding and reading through the threads everyone says no. since we lack the turbo there is really no need for a bigger exhaust. HP gains of about 3 i think.

Hi everyone I just got my 8 last weekend and love. I currently live almost right by speed elements but the house im living in is a temporary house because my parents are having there own custom house built out by UTSA. So right now were living in somewhat of a dump. Anyway anyone interested in hanging out?

Hey is your 8 a red one? If it is I saw you at speedelements after you got the ehaust and someone took off real fast in it testing it out i guess, sounded good.
