If you're good, you should be hoping for about 16.8 sec.

MP5 as in Mazda Protege5 and most of us refer to it as such including MYSELF

. Now i've run the 1/4 mile numerous times with my Auto which i think is killing me. My best Time to date is 17.52 and that is with: Injen CAI, Intake & Exhaust Cams, Custom 2.25 Catback exhaust, Denso Iridium Plugs.

My bad for the confusion I meant Intake Cam & Exhaust Cam. I just worded it Intake & Exhaust Cams. Plural instead of Singular because i was referring to both.

a 3rd gen 1.6 here in Australia has run a flat 17 with only cat-back exhaust and k&n panel filter.

2l should average about 16.5....

I made the 1/4 mile in 17.04 @ 83 MPH in third gear @ 6600 RPM with my project car. I guess it is not bad after all. First time I went, my wife was in the car and my tool box in the back, and that time I made 17.40 secs. The only thing special I got is and Air filter and 2.25 Exhaust system. My timming is set @ 14 degrees. I'm saving some money to purchase gennie headers and I'm working on a cold air box and intake.MY-PAGE
