my Mazda3 mods what do you think?

I recently got my Injen cold air intake and painted my valve cover. Also here is a sound clip of my Injen CAI. 1st sound is driving 2nd sound is at a stop. What do you guys think?

The performance with the Injen CAI is amazing I love it!

I got a couple of questions if you dont mind...I couldnt tell but is it turbo charged??....and dont those metal chains add extra weight and slow down revving??...and can you convert a SOHC to a DOHC ??...hope I didnt ask to many quesiotns...^_^

ghettopro, i'm pretty sure that it is NOT turbocharged....because the exhaust on these motors are to the rear fo the engine bay, so for best effeciency, the turbo would be placed back there.... and from the intake piping that i see, it doesn't go back there...it just goes straight into the throttle body, and intake manifold....


actually its funny..... i got liek the smallest exhaust leak, which makes my car sound liek it has a turbo spooling... (sounds exactly like a truck turbo) the turbo noise comes on from about 3800+ RPM..... but its awesome.... whenever someones in my car, i'm like i knwo u liek the sound of my turbo .... then i just give them these crazy eye look....which lets them know that i'm lying outta my a$$ about the turbo...

now to ure other questions... i'm not sure so i'll try to add what i can...but don't take my opinions on them

well the chains... i'm with u on that, i'm pretty sure they add some weight and kinda prohibit the revving ability.... and for sohc to dohc... i'm sure it can be done... but then u will need a new valve cover and balh blah and blah blah.... just so much work.... *I think*

My Mazda3 sounds like that, and I only took out my Air Intake Resonator, Free mod and it works just as well I think, gonna ve even better as soon as I put a K&N Airfliter in my stock filter box and my car will remain stock looking under the hood.
