I have a mazda 3 i sports package automatic. I got my 3 for graduation and didnt really have a choice in what i got, but i did want a mazda 3 and not a hatchback. Any one know a cheap and effective way to bridge the power gap between my 2L and the 2.3L? Any parts i could add on or w/e to make it run as good and as fast?

It just would be nice to get that extra power cuz i love my 3's look but i want to be able to say: my mazda 3 can haul @$$

 

I would look at parts from the MX-5/Miata....the 06's have basically the same 2.0L engine and they are pusing 170hp

 

yah would any one know what makes the miata push more?
