Need some help......
Well,today working on my car i managed to brake a plastic little piece that connect's my Turbo>IC pipe to the bypass valve:o
.So now my car is not drivable i need some help if you know someone that make's IC pipe's please let me know as this is my daily driver and need's to be fixed ASAP.
The only choice i have right now is to buy a set of hard pipe's for $395 if you know of anyone that can make them for me this week please let me know about it.
Thanks
David

Re: Need some help......
Taken from the mazdaspeed problems & fixes
Issue: Broken Intercooler Pipe.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What: If your car sparatically idles or dies after boosting, you may have broken the intercooler to BPV pipe joint.
Why: Mazda used plastic piping for whatever reason it was but in the process, they decided it would be okay to glue the joints together instead of molding them. The stress of boost may cause the joints to break causing a massive vaccuum leak.
How To Fix: Return to dealer. Unless you've blatantly abused the car, most will fix without asking questions.
TSB: Not available.

Anyway's i really don't think the dealer will replace that shit for free and, i'm just going to get hardpipe's to prevent this shit from happening again so fuck it.
