Start with the FAQ thread: https://www.rx7club.com/3rd-generation-specific-1993-2002-16/faq-3rd-gen-other-useful-links-68640/

Reliability and maintenance before "go fast".

put on your flame suit.

but yeah, reliability mods definately come first. start with a downpipe, then most people will tell you do replace all the vacuum hoses, the air/separator tank, etc. definately get a boost guage so you know exactly what kind of pressures you're pushing.

after that when you're ready, i'd say typical exhaust and intake. But unless you get a chip, or standalone fuel management, don't mod it past that. These cars can compensate as well for extra air. They don't have a MAF sensor like other cars do. If you don't add more fuel to go with the extra air, you can run lean and blow the motor quick.

start with the FAQ's and learn as much as possible.
