That's funny :p Maybee you guys can tail one another to the next meet.

I just signed up for the Racing Mazda Header group buy on the other board, If anyone's interested it sounds good to me, $340 shipped right now and maybe lower if 30 people sign up. Will fit MP3, P%s and sedans, 3rd gen. You will loose both cats, but you can always get a new highflow cat or use your old cat. No emission requirments here, so you don't have to.
I also signed up for the Auto show this weekend. Jeremy (the guy with the caviler) and myself are going, join us, it'll be cool.

any idea on what kinda power gains this will make?

It sounds like 10-12 HP, but more with a wider exhaust and intake. By having this header and good exhaust with and intake, you'll have an open breather. There's another post about the install of this header on the other thread that has a lot of good information. Plus the group buy post is 11 pages with a lot of information.

but with our current setup would we still need a high flow cat? I just dont wanna sound like a fart can honda

Hey guys, I met some of you last weekend at Midway, I'm the one with the Blue MP3, the Mazdaspeed decal on the back window, and the bigger exhaust. Nice to see a lot more Mazda people around here than I thought! It's rare to see any at Midway, at least.

Hopefully I can make a meet whenever it's decided...I saw those pic's of the (mostly) Mazda lineup; that was pretty nice :)

It will work with our current setup. You don't need a high flow cat. You've got the Racing Beat designed muffler which is packed with sound deading material. Don't get me wrong, it will be louder, but is won't be a fart pipe sound. And if you do think it's too loud, you can always put a high flow cat on for $75-100, which will make it quiter.

Ashram: Great, glad to see you made it here. If your interested, some of us are meeting for dinner on Sat. and then going to the autoshow at the convension center. Check out the autoshow post in TCPC.

would you be willing to assist me in installing it, Im very much not capable myself.

I sure could. If you get in on the group buy, we could do both our cars at the same time. Shouldn't be too hard, I've got the tools and Jeremy If we get stuck. Install is just removing a few bolts, and putting some new ones on.

Hey Im on, how are we paying... pay pal?

They take what ever, you have to send an email to amelicharek@ucdavis.edu, he's the one setting the deal up include: your board name, first and last name, mailing address, payment method, and email address. I think they take any type of payment, Credit, paypal, money order. Just the guy the avobe info and he'll let us know when to pay, I think it is when the pieces are ready to ship, should be in a few weeks.

Sorry for hijacking the thread. :(
