I assume you want power mods but...

- Short-Throw Shifter
- Suspension (Makes all the difference in the world)
- S-AFC (just hooks up to the stock ECU as far as I know... Rotary Performance even makes an adapter for it - pricey but... worth it? Maybe... http://www.rx-7.com/store/rx7/fcecu.html BOTTOM OF PAGE)
- Racing Seats
- Smaller Steering Wheel (My car has the stock TANK wheel :P )

Those are just some things on MY list...

Hope that helps,

power? lets see...

you want the stock ecu, but possibly a chip upgrade (RTEK) that would allow more boost and more power. It also has other advantages, look into it if you want.

Racing Beat has a selection of different exhausts (i.e. turbo back, cat back). If you get rid of your cats you should get a "fuel cut defensor" from Racing Beat as well. They have some reasonably priced suspension packages that inlcude adjustable shocks/struts.

Rtek has several ECU upgrades that are reasonably priced (all of which will eliminate the need for the "fuel cut defensor" so if you decide to go Rtek, save your money and don't buy the "fuel cut defensor"). www.digitaltuning.com

The best way to decide what to do is to not only post here in the forums, but search and read all of the different posts/threads that are available here. As a newbie myself, I am amazed at the amount of information here as well as the tremendous willingness of forum members willing to help and advise. There are many references to other forums and web sites that will expand your knowledge.
