Advice on building my blown engine
my compression is low and mazda wont warranty my engine becasue of aftermarket exhaust, and im not going to spend money on a stock exhaust when im just going to remove it after the swap, so i have decided to look into building my stock engine with plans of adding a turbo later. any advice on things to look into or shops near south carolina?

They cannot deny based on that, I have had two engines replaced with aftermarket exhausts and many others have as well. Read up: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnuso...s_Warranty_Act |
First off, you need to call Mazda North America. They can't void your engine warranty because of aftermarket exhaust. The exhaust didn't cause the low compression.
Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act of 1975 http://www.impalaclub.com/naisso/magmoss.htm Know your rights and contact Mazda North America directly. BTW, find a better dealer. I would never give them my business again. If you still want a hand built engine, it will be stronger than a factory reman, but don't think they don't owe you an engine. EDIT: Damn... you caught me typing. lol |
In the event you do your engine I would recommend these. Used in all our turbo builds.. In stock and ready to ship

Low compression is a well known and documented Renesis engine warranty issue.
Can you explain a bit more about what specifically you have for an aftermarket exhaust? |

Not fighting for the warranty repair is like fighting in a phone booth.
If one dealership says no, try another. Call Mazda NA and get them involved if you have to. |

What I'd like was three or four alternatives: 1. Minimum cost rebuilding 2. Medium cost 3. High cost 4. Cost no object |
honestly if u are looking to save the most money i would find a stock exhaust and put it on the car if that was the case and let mazda get u a free motor and have that one rebuilt with with seals and what not and get it ported mazda reman are shit. a super engine build is going to cost u 2 arms and a to legs lol
