Canadian MazdaSpeed Exhaust Folks
How many Canadians have the Mazda Sport Exhaust? and does anyone know the backorder status of them.
I just ordered mine yesterday from the dealership, they had no clue as to when to expect delivery. |
I have one. I ordered mine in April and got it in a month. I heard there are batches of Mazdaspeed exhaust that don't have the logo ecteched on the tip, luckly mine is. Whoohoo.. Its good I love it.

You'll be waiting until Late July, or early August at best.

You guys were right! I just got the exhaust Yesterday, July 27. So about 4 weeks
I like the exhaust very much! The sound only seems apparent once the car warms up. Not to loud, and at cruising speeds you don't really notice it is there. https://www.s2ki.com/ezimagecatalog/...73-640x480.jpg https://www.s2ki.com/ezimagecatalog/...76-640x480.jpg |
and at cruising speeds you don't really notice it is there. Try going on a 3 hour highway trip, you might change your mind about it. But I really like mine, I just wish you could plug it up for long trips. |
HOW MUCH?!?!
I'd love to have a Mazdaspeed exhaust on my protege.
I'm just wondering how much it cost, total, including parts and installation. I have a 2002 Protege ES, and I live in Calgary, Alberta, Canada.;) |
Price is aroud 395$ and you can get it at the dealer. Install is fairly easy since its only 2 bolts. But I think the dealer charges 40$ for install. All the parts comme with mufller.(ie. muffler, 2 bolts, gasket)
It is loud at cruising speeds, so if you do alot of highway you might think twice about it. I went on a 3 hour trip to Qc city and I wanted to kill myself. I was going 120-135 km/h the whole way. If you do a search you can find pics of the install on a sedan, they look slightly different (hint: they are longer). I have pictures up on imagestation but I cant get the link now. Like I said, a simple search will yield you many results. |
I don't know what to get as for an exhaust, I'd like to see some knid of increase in HP rather than just the asthetic appeal. I was thinking about an axle-back. That way I could change back to stock if I were going on a long trip. However you wouldn't see and performance gains vs a cat-back system...
Kinda stuck between a rock and a hard place I guess... |

I paid $474 with taxes, plus $30 bucks to install in a Minute Muffler. It took the fellow 15 minutes. Longer to take the exhaust out of the packaging :)
I had to go out of town yesterday (only 2 hour round trip) I did not find the exhaust loud at all, windows up or down. In 5th gear it was a non issue. Really, I didn't even find the exhaust was apparent at cruising speed. |
