Thanks guys!!! I just got the 6 running right today... I'm happy that it's pulling hard now. Any pointers to a good solution for a boost guage? Right now I'm thinkin the middle vent in the dash. The car is for my fiance, so preferably something that matches the dash lights and is easy to read.

Welcome!
DIY vent gauge pod: http://www.6crew.com/forum/showthread.php?12635-DIY-Making-Your-Own-Vent-Gauge-Pod
There are also triple gauge pods to replace the cover for the little cubby bit in the middle of the dash: http://www.therpmstore.com/store/p/562-CPE-Triple-Gauge-Pod-for-Mazda-6-Mazdaspeed-6.html
There are also some gauge pods floating around online that replace the defroster vent to the left of the steering wheel near the a pillar too. Check out 6crew or mazda6club for more info on those. Google should help bring up results too. I think they were originally sold on mazdas247.
As for the Speed6, how many miles on it? In my little bit of research, it's quite difficult to find them with low-ish miles on them. Most I've seen 70k+ and some even with 100-120k+. Granted they are 6-7 year old cars now.

The Speed 6 only has 58K and the Speed 3 only has 13K. I'm really happy with both purchases. I hope to have the cars for a very long time.

The MS3 is faster, but holy crap, the MS6 is SOOOOOOO comfy to ride in. I was completely stunned by the ride quality. Granted it's the GT model, but the ride isn't as stiff and the seats are very kush. I can't figure out which car I like more....seems like a nice problem to have though :)

So after driving them for a while....

The MS6 is WAY faster off the line and in 2nd gear. 3rd gear is when the MS3 starts to catch up. And the MS6 is so much more fun to drive in the snow....TOKYO DRIFTO!!!

Let me see if I can get this to work... I had to strip out the pictures from the .PDF because it was exceeding the max file size for the upload. I'll upload a second .PDF in a moment that just has the .JPG files.
