The leading cause of inconsistent horsepower output from your Mazdaspeed 3's MZR 2.3 DISI powerplant is due to inconsistent air intake temperatures. When you drive your MS3 hard, the tiny stock Top Mount Intercooler quickly becomes heat soaked. Intake temps rise quickly and power output drops off accordingly. Sure, you could replace your stock TMIC with an aftermarket TMIC that is slightly larger than the stock TMIC, but that only delays the inevitable heat soak that comes from having a small intercooler core that is positioned smack on top of your hot engine. So what's a MS3 owner to do?
Enter the TurboXS Front Mount Intercooler for the 2007 Mazdaspeed 3. With an enormous intercooler core that has 60% more surface area, 164% more volume, and 112% more thermal mass than the stock TMIC, inconsistent power output due to heat soak is a thing of the past. Additionally, on TurboXS's MS3 peak power increased to 321 whp and peak torque to a ridiculous 345 ft-lbs when they replaced the stock TMIC with the TurboXS FMIC.
Now you might ask "But doesn�t adding a huge FMIC in place of a TMIC cause more turbo lag and poor throttle response?" The answer is "No!" Power increases throughout the entire RPM range. Check out the dyno plot to see for yourself. Others might say "But installing an FMIC is hard and once you do, you can never go back to stock." Wrong! TurboXS's engineers designed the FMIC so that no major cutting is required. Three plastic "tabs" that serve no function do need to be trimmed, but that's it. Everything you need is included in the kit and everything can be easily uninstalled should you ever feel the need.
Consistent Power. More Power. More Power Everywhere. Easy "No Cut" Installation. All upside, no downside. What are you waiting for?
