I have an '03, it came with the STB, I've never driven it without, what sort of impact would the STB removal have on handling and what could be done to reverse any impact?
Couldn't even retain the bar with something like this: http://www.good-win-racing.com/Mazda.../17-1018e.html

Sorry for getting stuck on this; I'm in the heavy research phase so pardon my tenacity.
I saw this setup: http://www.papdoc.gr/photos/rotrex/rotrex1600_1.jpg where they seemed to take the intake under and retain the stock STB. Looks like they removed that plastic wall with the relays, and plenty looks different. Your kit looks better resolved, even seems to have thicker tubes. Is rerouting the intake a possibility or is it something thats fixed?

R/R sounds so easy I wouldn't even consider it a detriment. Just get the damn thing, install it yourself so you know how it goes in, and set aside a few hours before the smog test if need be. Heck, they give you something like a two months warning before the test is due.
1. 1 hour for injector plugs,
2. 1 hour for S/C oil cooler piping.
3. 1 hour for charger install.
when you remove and put back stock intake for smog. you don't have to do #1 and #2.

Sorry, I was mistaken. I thought I read at sometime that you refered to the DIY kit as the racers kit. I would like to know when you decide how much the intercooler kit will be to add to the DIY and the carb legal kit. I will be installing an Adaptronic very soon so I would not need the feuling portion but it would be nice to have the Carb cert. I will need ot make up my mind at some point.
I will be removing the PS and A/C soon. Is there going to be a carb legal kit fo that setup? I am shure I could just order it like the DIY style mounting.
Have a great day,
Jared

May be you all don't under stand the question. I did mention that I am going to be removing the PS and A/C. If you missed that you may want to read my post again. I am looking to find out it I can run the CARB Legal kit without PS and A/C?
I am not that dumb to think that the carb will not know. They will but I know for a fact that most smog techs will not begin to look for a piggy back ecm. The main reason I would want it is for the smog tech or incase I get pulled over and the clueless cop who thinks he knows everything wants to check my car for mods I can show him the carb cert and send him on his way. After seeing that he is mostlikely not going to be digging to deep. The adaptronic is going to be hidden and if he starts pulling panels in my car I will call my attorney on the sopt and get him to stop. I Have had my smog license in the past. So I know what goes into doing smogs. On top of that I would not be touching the factory ECM it will be in the car.
