Mazda can we please have another PCM flash that has a little more power and research put into it?? This flash should be for the overwhelming majority of us who can easily get 93 or higher octane?? I guess I better not hold my breath?? Replies to this message: aviboy97 (Oct 30, 2006 12:32 pm)

Jeremy states, he had more fun in that car than some hundred thousand dollar coupes (he still wouldn't buy it 'cause of its looks - I disagree though). That said, it's all a personal choice. I had rental 3 5-door and enjoyed it a lot. I feel, for my driving style I would like the 3 Speed more than 6 speed. But that's other discussion and I have taken the plunge with a 6 speed anyways.
