God it's nice being military...my car will forever and always be registered in good ol' FL!
I did the simplification on my car and also on my buddy Jeffs, it lowers the level of complexity from Doctorate Rocket Science to BA College Graduate level, something I can understand. Still not elementary, but better.
And WTF is this about no turob spool noises?? I don't know about that.
Get the blockoff plates and trash all that EPA Carter-ization...I didnt say that.

So the Simplification + Damians Boost Control is actually a good idea? Alrighty then that settles it Im going for it =P wish me luck when the hoses come in.

No turbo spool noises when accelerating slowly
ummm thats pretty much it.

That also means I have to buy the block off plates.

Either way they got rid of it 5 years ago and have never talked about bringing it back. The only thing their really strict about here are the rice mufflers, 98789459 subwoofers in the truck blasting, and rice races. (which is why we get problems sometime when we want to meet).
BTW I wouldnt even know of any other car. My dad has two v-8s running only flowmasters and he has yet to get sh*t about it =P.

(I dont know if this has been said or not....i only read the first page)
PRO: better gas mileage! (whenever the car sees boost, you dump loads of gas. If you are non-sequential u dont get on boost as much during everyday driving.
CON: Your car will be alot louder.

Alright how expensive is it to replace the stock fuel pressure regulator. I honestly dont want to put that rats nest back in the car. Just looking at the design of the simplification makes me want it more. BTW Where is the regulator?

[edit]I'd just stick with the stock FPR. I think it works just fine, especially on the stock ECU.[/edit]

What most people have missed in going non seq. you will have a slower spool up since the exhust is split between the two turbs. When you are seq. the full cfm goes thru the primary only up to 4k rpm. The cfm is also split on the top end becuse its pushing gasses thru the primary when it is actualy usless. The only gain you will get is in the mid range, both turbs working together and no drop in boost during transition. I wouldnt do it. Its a simplification that is all. If it was a better way Mazda would have made it like that to begin with. Besides if your going to have two turbos on a FD learn how they work and understand the parts that make it work, with that knowlage you will be able to trobleshoot your turbos just fine. It just takes a little time to learn it.

The reason that Mazda made it so freaking many its mainly cause of emmisions. PCV and other useless emmisions junk. I think simplifying it would make things easier to work with but I just dont want to lose any dependability. Also I heard the simplification gives you better response.

BTW This is the SEQ SIMPLIFICATION!!!
(NOT NON SEQ)
Alright I just got the hoses in and Im working on getting the rats nest out. Im currently also trying to looking for the fuel regulartor which I am supposed to leave in place. Alright any other suggestions before I move on?

sounds like a great idea if you are choosing to stay with a sequential setup. cleaning up all the extra emmisions crap under the hood is the right thing to do, saves the motor. get rid of all of it and go non-seq. the whole engine bay gets gutted out!

Well I want to stay seq because Ive heard its better for track but the other main reason and more important is I dont have the money . Emmsions is not a problem. Also Ive heard you get better throttle response. Either way I cant stand the mess under there and would like to have a cleaner engine bay.
