Tint is going on tomorrow afternoon. (Flawless Front Ends and Tint) Went to the eye doc (Savage Family Eye Clinic) yesterday and obtained a prescription for as low as 20%. Thinking 40% front driver/pass, 35% on the rest. Looking forward to getting it done!
Thank you for the straightforward response. I will most likely not gamble with just the SRI. I will look to purchase them together.
I appreciate all the insight guys! Thanks a lot and I look forward to making a Wednesday Night Meet Up sometime soon.
So I should be ok just picking up the SRI without the air box right now? I guess I am getting a mixed reaction on whether or not I should take the chance. Thanks.
Looked at the Corksport SRI... not bad at all. Do you have experience with their products? Seems like they get good reviews. Would I need to pair the SRI with their air box component or could I get away without it? it doesn't seem like it would add much to the system... more of a gimmick than...
I'd be interested. Mz3 hatch. Last weekend in April would work best for me. I am out of town the first couple in May. I was going to have the tint done by Chris @ Flawless Front Ends in Prior Lake but he has not gotten back to me lately.
Thanks for the info. I was guessing that an aftermarket intake MIGHT get me another 5hp if I'm lucky. Probably not worth it for the money though. If I was going to throw a turbo on it, I should have just opted for the Speed3 from the start... although I would have had to drop a bunch more money.
I recently added a K&N filter to my stock 2011 Mazda 3 GT. It is not an MS3 so it is a non-turbo. I decided to look at what a full intake system would cost me. In just doing a basic internet search, I found that most of what is out there is mainly for the MS3. Are they compatible with the...
Put in the K&N filter last night. Seems like it lets the engine breathe a little better. Sometime next summer(2013), I may put in a full intake and then compliment it with new exhaust. :)
The 'wagon' classification was just something I had heard. I hadn't confirmed it though. I don't think I'd try and use that argument in court. LOL!
Taking into consideration the comments that have been posted, I may shoot for 40% in the front and 35%(maybe 30%) on the back windows and hatch...
Tint is going on early April. I know 50% is legal tint and if you want darker you need a prescription from an eye doctor. I heard that many hatchbacks are considered 'wagons' and if it is listed on your title as such, you are able to go darker than 50% behind the front doors. Anyone with a M3...
Good to know. This is by far the newest vehicle I have ever owned. My previous car was a 2002. I think I'll be picking one up in the next couple days. Thanks for the insight.
Yeah, I noticed the air box is poorly designed. $50 for the K&N seems like a fair price to give it a try. I'm guessing I won't notice too much of a difference in performance. I am wondering how it will affect gas mileage though.
I have had a K&N filter in my last 3 vehicles and have been thinking of putting on in my new M3GT. It would be nice to put in a full intake but it's just not in the cards right now.
I was looking for data online that would tell me if it was worth putting in the new filter instead of leaving...
