1. 5% tint
2. homemade intake w/cone filter
3. Kartboy shifter/shifter bushings
3. Magnaflow exhaust

Next items up for purchase:

cams, headers, wheels & tire combo for HST and SCCA, maybe some suspension parts as well

perhaps a little P&P on the heads....it's all up in the air right now because we have a Focus to work on also!

if you do the engine mods....and race SCCA, your gonna bump your car in the modified class, in which you'll have no chance of winning.

I'm just out to have fun...they put our Turbo Focus in the D-Modified category, which REALLY sucked!

I love this car but in case you haven't noticed...it's a station wagon. Maybe I'll understand after I drive it for a while and get sick of the lack of power. It seems like a waste when your starting point is 130 hp.
To each, his own. And to me its a HB even though we already had a LONG UNECESSARY thread about this.

BTW, I tested the RSX and the seats are to small and uncomfortable, but the Mazda6 isn't bad only if its a V6.
