I'm assuming you had your car on a dyno to verify that it does indeed push 270hp before bragging about it. Would that be at the crank, or at the wheels? Please post a scanned image of your dyno test for us all to enjoy.

I like those Mazdaspeeds, my next door neighbor has one but in orange.
he has a greddy BOV and a Injen CAI. we've ran a couple of times and run preatty neck and neck.

Mazdaspeed Protege's ain't no joke when modded. With just CAI, Turboback, boost controller, and an SFC I believe Import Tuner saw 240whp. I'd believe he was making 270hp at the flywheel. Definitely not at the wheel though. Heck 270hp ain't that hard to come by.

get it dynoed bro, maybe it has 270 im not sayin i dont believe or i do... but im just gonna say dont go by what the manufacturers of your mods say, you will not gain as much hp as they say.

The mazdaspeeds are nice...i didnt really know their potential cause i dont know nebody whose done it

I do think 270hp @ wheels is a lil optimistic, but nice kill, hope to see some under the hood pics and a few more races

Actually, looking at many of the speed5 owners, they have been able to hit mid 14's with justa MBC @ 9psi. And the speed5 responds well to mods because many have been able to hit 13's on stock internals with bolt-on upgrades.
That engine is so weird in that car, you can either have a really good one or a really shitty one for no apparent reason.
