i've been told that the workers who make i believe the axels (correct me if i'm wrong) are on strike right now so if there are any out there that aren't already spoken for then they will be few and far between

Aaron-
Which dealership has the black one coming in tommorrow? I want to see one of these in person.
Also, My car got pounded in the recent hail storm and I'm thinking I may as well carbon fiber the hood and deck. You don't have an OEM CF hood on your web site. Can you get one and a deck lid? I want to support a local guy.

Walley Mc's. - Rally Yellow
Gould Chevrolet - black
Freindy's - Black (should be here this week)
Call these dealers they may have them on the lot already. HOWEVER this is all that is avaliable for the 2008's in the next 3 weeks or so, so I am guessing no more 08's until Sept when the 09's ship.

They "feel" a lot like the SC, just not quite the bottom end torque like the SC has....
The turbo spool and bypass vale are louder than I thought, it is a lot louder than the Mazdaspeed 3...
I just am always trying to put the SS/TC in reverse, as I am use to the 6 speed mazda

it uses the same turbo as the ms3, k04, but that 2.0 may use it better as its smaller than the 2.3 i have. yeah the ms3 stock is quiet as hell! I just put a intake in and if finally released the sound! Yeah i drove rallyracer's car the other month and it was weird as hell shifting it! hahah love the 6 speed

well for reasons unknown yet to the ms3 world, the power drops after lik 5800rpm on the ms3...Idk what the TC balt revs to though... I almost like it so i dont bounce off the rev limiter hahah its like a retard safety shift preventer.
j christ some wine sounds good right now...jeffs best mans speech is being written while i drink fyi....hahah. If i get a GF im going to have to convince her to buy a TC balt...then i can have the best of both worlds I like supporting american muscle!
