That\'s a shame mate. Sounds like detonation (at max torque 6krpm). What mods did you have on the car ? and what was done in the ned to stop it running as it was ? could whatever was done to lean out the mixture have been leaned out too much ?

mods are only back box and ARC induction box, original ECU and i couldnt think of anythin that could lean it out, any suggestion Brian???how could this happened????????just after i got the car back too......:mad:

One weak point which I try and make mention to anyone with the arc induction kit is that is is crap and a big heat soak. Your intake temps soar with this fitted. This in itself would not be the cause but it could well of contributed. The other possibilites are endless. Could be any thing from injector fault on the car, or dodgy fuel pump etc to something simple like the climate at this time of year and you suffered a boost spike maybe. There really is many possible causes. I guess there\'ll be a better indication once it\'s stripped down.

You must have a boost controller aswell then ? as you cannot ste the amount of boost without either and aftermarket ecu or a boost controller ?? 0.9 bar is way above stock. infact without a fuel cut defender you will experience fuel cut to the rear rotor I believe anything above 12 psi .9 bar I believe is about 14.5 psi ?

I agree with Brian on Induction kits. Get the proper Mazda one if you can, it draws cold air from outside the car.
