Recently I bought a new Mazda 6i 2.3L and I'm looking to add some horsepower to this baby. Whats the best way to do this? I've considered performance mod chips and possibly an Ingen air intake system. Any recommendations?
Why do you start 2 threads to ask the same question? :headscrat:Originally posted by justnada22@Nov 15 2005, 11:53 PM

Well, shit, let's just all post topics in every single Forum to make sure that everyone sees them. That'd be great!
The Forums are divided up for a reason. Duplicating threads only ensures that one or both of them will be locked by a Moderator.
As for your question, it might help if you mentioned how much money you were thinking of spending. A cold air intake is a great option, but not if you have enough that you'd consider forced induction.

Yeah, this Sub-Forum is kind of a catch-all, but perhaps the best place for your thread (and where a Moderator is likely to move this one soon anyhow) is in the 2.3L engine Forum.Understandable I'm new to this I just noticed a lot more replies were done in this section than the newbie section.
A Cold-Air Intake is your best option. Many people will say the CP-E is the best, and it is if you're talking about the V6, but the difference between it and the Injen on the 4-Cylinder doesn't justify it's much higher cost in my opinion. I'd go with the Injen or the AEM personally.To answer your question anywhere up to 1000 dollars would be fine for me to upgrade some parts. Whatever will work best I just want to make sure I can see a difference after installation. I dont want to end up spending 200 bucks on some product that is nothing more than a gimmick. Which is why I came here.

If you look at the piping under the car you will notice there are a couple of 'choke points' where the piping narrows down. Go to an exhaust shop and have these cut out and replaced with 2 1/4" piping.Â
