This is my girlfriend's 2003.5 MazdaSpeed Protege. It's production number #1951 out of a total #4500 made. The car from the factory has nearly 1000 modifications over a base model protege according to Mazda. Of these it starts with a Garrett/Callaway T25 Turbo Kit, Racing Hart 17x7 Wheels, Tokico Dampers, Racing Beat Springs and Sway Bars, a Tochigi Fuji LSD and Racing Beat Exhaust System. The car is a fun toy to play around with and she loves every bit of it. She bought the car stock in August of 2006, used, with 21k miles on it with absolutely no problems besides the typical msp quirks, but the warranty has taken care of everything.

Currently the car has...

A few more things will be added this spring/summer to go faster so we'll see how it goes! I'll be tuning it at 12psi as well.
