New to Mazda Speed 6 forum and question
 
I have been browsing this forum ever since my son bought our Speed 6 about a year and a half ago. We have upgraded the car with the usual cold air intake, Magnaflow exhaust, test pipe and COBB access port. Car has had it's share of problems with oil consumption, and usual problems of a car with 111,000 miles but two weeks ago after replacing the turbo to fix the oil consumption, the engine threw a rod so now I find myself replacing the engine. Old engine is out and used, 8,900 mile replacement is almost ready to go in, with the exception of the flywheel which everyone says to only use new flywheel bolts. Mazda doesn't have them in stock so at a standstill till next week when the new bolts come in. Does anyone know the torque specs for these bolts and why can't you reuse the original bolts? Thanks for a great forum.

George

The car may need to have an upgraded high-pressure fuel pump as well. Post some logs of the car once it's back up and running, and we might be able to help determine if there's an inherent problem with the setup.
