Easy Upgrades?

Hey All

Finaly got my RX7. She's a 87 GXL. Not a bad little car for my first car. Anyway, she's not quite as "spirited as I would like so I was wondering what bolt ons I can add on that will free up a few ponies? Cold air? exhaust? what else?

Thanks
Jordan

the rotary will respond pretty well to intake and exhaust upgrades, thats a good place to start. After that, unless you want to go into the engine and port it, try to free up some weight and get some kind of piggy-back engine management.

What type of things are best to do in terms of intake? A cold air intake with a dam? What other options are there? Since emmisions won't be a problem, what type of ehaust should I be looking at?

Thanks
