I know I could remove it and put the stock one back onif the car has a issue but that's not always possibe if im away interstate or something so it will have to wait till the warranty and ford extended warranty runs out.

jmac86 Member 85 Member For: 13y 19d Posted 04/01/13 07:10 AM Share Posted 04/01/13 07:10 AM (edited) Can a Mazda produce an extra 100kw with just a tune? There's deliberate attempts by Ford to limit the potential of these cars. The aftermarket industry has solved every single one of them. I can't blame them for wanting to keep people honest. Lol what has that got to do with it? Mazda make turbo models you know right? My 3 currently has about 220kw atw with basic bolt ons. Mazda knew about them all and replaced a turbo for free after the warranty had expired.. So what you are telling me is I can buy an xr6 and flash it and it warranty is fine? Ford make other models too. Cool story bro! What it sounds like to me is they will do anything to get out of paying a warranty claim.

I know its very unlikley to happen but we all know Murphys law. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
