Well Max, how fast do you wanna spend?

Wanna go faster? Buy an aftermarket turbo kit... ~ $3K+ installation

too much money? Go with Intake and Exhaust... Keep it cheap and you'll be spendin' about 500 bucks for a big HP gain. You'll hear more often than not that the easiest way to go is that way.

Good luck

-Chris

Change the exhaust out to a header,race pipe and a good cat-back system, try to find a header that will still let your 5th/6th ports open,Racing beat.com sells them, thats where your going to get the most hp. Then put on a K&n air filter with a turboII air flow meter, 550cc injectors from turboII, and, S-AFC to controll them. These's can be found at Rx-7.com,mazdatrix.com
victoria british.com Hope this helps

But i've been told that with the heathers it makes to much noise? is that true?, and how much hp does my car gain with just an intake and the heathers?

It will sound like crap, with just headers and a stock cat-back, it will sound like a dam chain saw!! To keep the sound down, just keep the main cat or buy a hi-flow main cat, then with a new cat-back and headers it sound sweet!!! I've seen as much as 15 more horses with full race exhaust, it's loud as hell!! I would say a good 8-10 more h/p from a new header and a cat-back. With a new intake I would say about atleast 2 h/p gain and up to 5 with a cold air box. Are you planing to do any porting to your throttle body?
