    Default New 2012 Mazdaspeed 3...what a blast!!

    Hi,

    Just registered and this is my first post here.

    Wifey and I have a new 2012 Mazdaspeed 3 (white) with nav and tint.

    She's not so crazy about it but I love it.

    I do a fair amount of virtual racing PS3 GT5, NFS Shift and Shift 2, and I've recently acquired a Mazdaspeed in my (virtual) garage...souped that bad boy to 417 HP!

    Would like to do similar to the real thing but I don't know where to start...sure I know about Cobb bellmouths etc but I'm concerned that upgrades would void manufacturer warranty.

    Any advice out there?




    THX and ZOOM-ZOOM!!!

    Welcome!
    My wife wasn't 100% on board with the Speed3 when we bought ours either but has since grown to understand it's a great vehicle (and ended up buying a regular 3 herself).
    Congrats!

    Welcome to the forums.

    ( again surprised im saying this first. )

    Click the red banner on top and come to H4H. you will get to see a bunch of speeds there. Some of which are done up pretty nicely. Just tell your wife it's a fundraiser for hearth house. When you show it will be close to 300 3's and speed3's.

    Btw. I'm not to far from orangeville. 27 and 9.
