my new PR5 -zoom freakin zoom-
On Sunday I picked up my first Mazda, a 2002.5 protege5, midnight blue mica, roof-rack, CD changer, polished wheels, Auto trans (the wife wanted auto). I am very pleased with it so far, heck I have only had it 3 days. The car has 23600 miles, so it is well broken in, the dealer said it was a company loaner, so I am figuring that it has been driven hard. My question for now is what should be my first upgrade? Cold air intake? Exhaust? Whatever i get first the wife should not be aware of right off the bat, she is a Jeep person, so tuning cars is not her thing.
Give me some advice. Thanks!!

Strut tower bar installed stock, next.... rims and tires are coming after tax refund, some BBS 17" and new Pirelli's
Now onto intake, just replace the filters with K&N, or replace with a CAI??

Anyways have fun with your new car. And if you want to be quiet with your mods, I would get the K&N filter. She won't hear a thing.

well, well boys.... She know how to drive stick, this one just happened to be an auto, we are getting old and living in the heavily congested Los Angeles, the auto makes sense, our other cars are all manuals, yes i pushed for the manual, she won out, it makes more sense, hell you try a 17mile 1 1/2 hour commute over the 405 freeway with a manual, you shift gears close to 100 times!
Besides the point... the K&N filters are going on at next oil change, wheels in March.
And damn, you all love to rant don't you....

#2 I commute to Boston. I don't count how many times I shift.
#3 You WANTED a manual. I was just whole heartingly agreeing. You gave in. I ain't ranting
#4 Good choice on the K&N, We wouldn't want the sound of a CAI to freak your wife out.
#5 If ya haven't figured out I'm just messing with you,then............ theres no hope for you.
