Hello my name is James and i'm from Crewe that sounded a bit like take mne out then,

I have traded in my Corsa Vxr yesterday for a Verlocity Red Mazda 3 Mps from Warrington and should be ready to pick up in 2 weeks after my plate has been put on. Carn't wait a massive step up from the soon to be new chav mobile of the corsa.

I was wondering whats the best panel filter to put into the Mps?

Cheers

James

Welcome mate.don't waste your time with a panel filter as its the box where the restriction lies.get an actual intake in either a Sri or Cai.must say I quite like the corsa vxr,I'd think it give the mps a spanking round the twisties.

Hello, after driving the mps on test drives compared to the Vxr is a totally different car is so many ways and feels better through the bends and smoother and you didn't have to keep thrashing it to get it to go anywhere, Anyway compared to the kit i priced up on the Renault sport megane 265 and the S3 it was a bargin for the same speed i'll get some mods on the car in a couple of months.

Where's the best place to get mods for the Mps?

Cheers

James

Welcome mate, make sure you get some pics up when you get it. Just make sure whatever mods you do you bare in mind there may be issues when it comes to warranty. I'm not sure how strict Mazda are though tbh.

A corsa vxr would not do a 3mps regardless of the type of road. I can beat two of my mates carrying 5 people.

Welcome to and enjoy.
