Keep an eye on the Mazdadrivers.com site. This year they had an event at VIR in March. Next year's schedule isn't out yet, but maybe they'll do another one around the same time frame? For that matter, other clubs do HDPE events at VIR too, so keep an eye on the VIR site as well - http://www.virclub.com/vir/

ya... I recently... randomly? decided to run without a cat a feel how it reacts...
I ain't trying to jack this thread... but... Wow, it's made me discover new vibrations within the car I never knew I had! It's so loud I try to run at a 1/4th of throttle atleast! If else i'd be asking for attention...
So my questions comes down to with a high flow cat does the sound change at all?
*Thinking about high flow cat* - cause stock shucks my nuts

The way the highflow cat sounds really depends on what kind of exhaust you have. I have an HKS exhaust and the thing sounds like a freaking race car, and it pops flames too. There is another local guy that has it with a Racing Beat and his car sounds alot quiter than mine, but one thing is for sure, it is still VERY loud. Especially when you first put it on, then it calms down within a month. That first month it sounds very raspy and annoying, but after that, it sounds real good. If I had the means to put a sound clip on here I would, but as of right now I got nothin.
