Looks like it should breath pretty good. Almost as big as the bridges in the SA About your hatch. There is supposed to be a rubber on top and bottom of the glass. If you are missing either one, that's where your "flood" came from. So, how's the fuel mileage going.......I swear if one more person ask me what kind of mileage the SA is getting, I'm going to snap!

Damn Stu, I may have to get a shot at those as well. Are they for a 12A or 13B? That's a nice kiddy pool you are touting around in the back of the car.

Yeah, kiddy pool. I was tempted to throw some fish back there and pimp my ride.

You got a PM.

All templates are the same size, 12a or 13b. Exhaust templates are the only thing different.

Always learning something new. I love it. Porting and EFI tuning is where I am trying to focus my learning efforts now. Very cool.

Sure it will. All you need is the Racing Beat upper intake if you plan to use the throttle bodys side draft. Part Number: 18101. Retails for $150. If you want to use them down draft, you will need part Number: 16493. Retails for $265. Check them out on thier site http://www.racingbeat.com/FRmazda2.htm

ing

ha ha ha. I like my cold ac thanks. lol that power steering of our is the devils child. fix one leak then ani=other starts. I put a coolent pressure tester on my rx since i have to fill it up with coolant everyday, and to no avail, I still can find a leak. no moisture from the exaust, nor smells. no puddles under the car either. no sounds of hissing but the tester kept loosing pressure. within 1 minute or so it would lose about 5 pounds. I dunno doesnt make any since to me. never have I had and issue with finding a leak. the only other thing i can do is a compression test to see if it actually is a coolant seal. oh yeah, and on start up, its normal, no spraying out of the resavoir at all. lol my little devil car i guess. anyone have any imput let me know, im all ears.

if you can't find it, i would put some of that radiator stop leak, it's like 3/4 bucks tops, it might seal up your leak without having to spend big bucks on it, and if it doesn't....it was 3 bucks you were gonna spend on coolant anyways

Is your passenger floor wet? Heater core maybe. Only thing I can think of, but you could grab a stethoscope and pull the header/intake/spark plugs out and listen for a fizzy sound from inside the engine.
