Mazda Monday! Turbo Tuning Differences & Limitations
Just me rambling about why the CX-9, CX-5 & Mazda 6 turbo can make more power.
If you have a 2021 Mazda 3, you drew the short straw. Not only did they give you crappy valve stem seals, but you also have ECU logic that is similar to the CX-5 & CX-9.
This means your car behaves like an SUV engine because it’s tuned like 1.
The 2022 & up Mazda 3 turbos are tuned way better.
The cars will not make the same power using the JB4 unless you correct the ECU tuning to be the same.
The 2021 Mazda 3 makes more power at lower loads & the 2022+ Mazda 3 makes more power at higher loads.
I’m not going to in-depth, but this is just a little quick view of Mazdaedit.

Damn I didn’t even know they pulled timing like that loll it all makes sense now
Super informative video - happy we learned the differences about the '21s and '22+ cars. Glad you're willing to keep working on our tunes even though there are a bunch of unknowns - especially for my 21 in particular 😅

No worries, I will be sending those tunes as soon as my test cars return the logs
Very good information to learn here, crazy how much Mazda tunes these cars relatively the same. They finally said hey this is a Mazda 3 let’s get it and different feels compared to the other cars. When I first brought my car early last year in February it literally just got off the truck a week before and the mechanic at the dealer wanted it. Me and him played rock,paper, scissors and I won it. They had a 2021 which the mechanic ended up getting and I had the 2022.

You are very lucky 😂 I was wondering why you were so happy with such a small change to your tune. Meanwhile, the 2021 guys still wanted more 😂

@@supermazda3 🤣🤣 Dude I’m telling you it’s almost night and day from the previous tunes I had in the past of last year. Especially when I had a friend with a Q60 twin turbo 4.0 v6 and I was ahead of him by a front bumper from the last tune you gave me.
Some interesting insight. Having a background tuning my own Supra on AEM Infinity, there's a lot of maps in Mazda Edit, Yeah a lot of unknowns, but pretty sure you can make good progress tuning a few know maps. OEM's are pretty damn good in protections and compensations. Well I'm glad I'm getting a 2024 turbo 3. 😁 I don't plan on tuning it myself, but rather having it tuned. Can't wait on your next videos. 👍👍

Yes, I've definitely had some great progression with this software. It has more than enough to make it keep up with hot hatches

@supermazda3 hopefully this weekend I make some headway on it!
I absolutely love my 3 turbo 2023, literally everything about it except one thing and it's so annoying (so many rattles inside, the screen, the b pillars, sometimes the a pillar as well) apart from that which I mean I'm not selling the car for that just very annoying, I love it. The bose sound system is also very nice

It's okay, the problem can be fixed
So when you tune 2021 2.5T do you copy and paste values from the 2022 as a starting point?

No, I do not because there are tables that are missing, 2021 tune is completely different from 2022/23
So wait, how do we get an updated ecu??? Can it be done through the dealership since 2021s act more like SUVs?
