Nope... Didn't read that....
But I haven't heard it mentioned on the mazdaspeed forum except for one guy who was running a upgraded intake system including intercooler, with a larger turbo and over 1.bar boost.
The elbow was the only thing that was stock on the intake system, hence, the only part that wasn't upgraded failed, not rocket science.

The SE guys seem very keen to dish out the sh*t on the SP but cant take a little gentle proding when the short comings in the SE start appearing. Talk about thin skinned.

Forum admins....Is there a way to block this clown fom my view and to stop him from sending me private messages?
Garry, Please delete any messages from anyone you wish to ignore, there's no built in function.
Why can't we all be friends?
(Thanks Bevan for pointing me at this thread!)
