    they do, however, would suggest grabbing one of these:
    Mazdaspeed MAP Harness - Bitwise Motorsports
    some guy on MSF makes them, so it's a simple plug in rather than soldering etc... have one on my car, works a treat, as long as you have thin hands to get it in easily
    as for location, looking into the engine bay from front of car, it's just on left hand side of intake manifold

    is this 300wk ATW? in an MPS3
    how much would you be looking at to achieve this reliably?
    is the factory box/shafts etc. willing to take that much stress?

    yup, pretty much is 300kw at the wheels
    the gearbox and drive train seem to hold up pretty good for the most part, it's the rods and pistons that seem to be the weakest bits...
    i should be hitting ~280 at the wheels once done, cost me ~6k including tune (engine getting built next year)

    Well we have priced for 500 to 550HP ATW and will be upgrading the Gearbox to handle the extra power with new cam and Garret Turbo. I have been told that there is an MPS in Brisbane driving around with 550HP at the wheels and not to sure if they are a member here???

    Funny you say that Col took the new member Nick and his Dad for a spin in Madaz at say 6/10th and the passenger handles were nearly torn out. . In the dark wet parts of the roads

    Once again not my problem Sam, why we pay the money for the right job and the first attempt is running great, I'd like to find out who it is but Richard was asked not to disclose any information, I would have loved to have spoken to him to see how it's going for drivability and traction, I would have an idea about the traction.

    Yeah there are a few using them including myself. I can say it has made a difference especially when you're running with a few bolt ons

    Yeah mine are great, haven't pushed the car much but seeing as I have a busted driver side mount.
    But when I give it a bit of a poke I notice the difference especially in KR value

    That's it, its not about HP gains. They make the car run smoother and help burn all the fuel put into the cylinder 'hence' run cleaner. I noticed a difference on idle and start it run ssooo much smoother on cold start
