You are buying a MazdaSpeed clutch for your Mystique? 
BTW, you do realize that MazdaSpeed makes more than one car right?
That's like asking if we recommend you install a Ford engine in your car. (More than one model car with all different engines).

Ok, and your point is?
First thing, the MazdaSpeed 6 is a 4 cyl. Not a V6.
But either way, it doesn't matter. They don't use the same transmission as us.

Well apperantly the sport clutch they offer is available to the 3.0 V6 (RAMS-8M-HQ2), which I thought used the MTX-75, as well as the 2.3 I-4 (RAMS-8M-HQ1).

pretty sure that the Mazda 6 5 speed is different from the one in the contour... Why would ford/mazda want to reuse a primitive transmission?

Get the spec seeings as how the Mazda 6 3.0L is NOT a performance car, the MAZDASPEED 6 is a 2.3L turbocharged 4cyl. Just an FYI

Spec makes some good clutches. I've been driving an '03 Z06 with a Spec Stage 3 in it, on and off for the past few days and it has impresed me with it's drivability. It feels very close to stock. I know what clutch I'm getting when mine goes.
