YELLOW "powered by Mazda" stickers all over. All the ricers have them and say just the sticker adds 10 hp, but if their yellow then they had 20 hp!!!

Seems like you like the stereo. I think the pulleys would be a bad choice. Not enough hp versus $ and power issues. Go with flywheel.

I know this might sound stupid but what is a flywheel??
Do flywheels work with automatics?? cause i thought flywheels were for manuals

Jesse is tempting me to argue the semantics about the lightness of that EVO bumper and the added cooling, but thats just cuz i want the free cookie...lol. Flywheels are for manuals only, automatics use a flex plate...Personally I'd try and get a cam ground if you've already done exhaust and intake..

Invest in a driver's school.

I suggest one of the Evolution courses.

It will serve you well.
