How can i Improve my Mazda 6 MPs?
All of these can be adjusted and retuned with an EcuteK factory ECU retune. Bottom end and mid range performance can be dramatically improved with ECU tune.

What’s the difference between a Mazda 6 and Mazda 8?
There is definitely a difference in torque with the mps having quite brutal delivery when the turbo kicks in – you dont get that in the 8 unless you have the revs up over 5k at least. Do I miss the torque? Not really, there are things about the rx-8 which make up for it.

Is there a torque steer on a Mazda 6?
No torque steer, It just launches and goes. It’s not a constant AWD, but has a electronic controlled clutch on the rear diff. So that driving along in a straight line it runs in 2WD mode. When it needs it the rear wheels it switches them on. It completely seamless and pretty trick IMO.
