I have had my Mazdaspeed for little over a month now, when I got the MSM it was all stock except the silver go fast stripes (which I didn't like at first, but now they have grown on me). I had been doing research on several CAI by Flyin' Miata, Joe's MSM Intake, and BEGI, I narrowed it down to FM, and BEGI. I loved the look of the BEGI system so thats the one I chose. The only problem I read about was product fitment, but not to be worried I ordered the Cold Air Intake System kit, plus BEGI's Throttle Inlet Tube, Forge Motorsports By-Pass Valve, BEGI's Radiator Cover, I placed the order on December 22nd. The kit came in on 01-27-2012, I could not wait to get it installed.

Car as I received it:

My added Bling that I collected over the years of other Miatas that I have owned, 10th AE Wheels, TD air Spiltter, 95 M Seats Recovered in Black Leather, Nardi Wooden Steering Wheel, VooDoo Shift Knob, and E-Brake Handle, My faded 93 LE Floor Mats, and GoMiata Headlights:

Went out for a test drive shake down, its unreal what this upgrade has done, its made my MSM 50% more FUN!!!!!!!!! I have ordered a Flyin' Miata downpipe, and I have been talking with Jason at Enthuza, I ordered his Mazdaspeed Midpipe, and the Mazdaspeed XR Exhaust, can't wait to get these items installed, so more goodies coming soon!

Overall the fitment was not that bad, considering hand made products (no two are the same), and from the great state of Texas!!! I love made in the USA!!!!!!!! Its a rare site to see......
