Any other info you think i should put here Let Me know. Thank you.

 

Well, what are your goals?
There are things we could suggest to anybody, like a Sohn adapter, and we can suggest what to avoid, but what do you want from the car?

 

I don't think aftermarket exhausts will prove to be at all useful to the 4 port, aside from a cat delete.

The CAI likely won't help much, if at all on your particular engine.

The shon adapter is a good idea, and so is the BHR ignition. For spoilers are you going for looks only? The mazdaspeed ones look pretty good, without being overly kite-like.

 

Power, Stability, Style. the whole 9 yards. I'm looking for suggestions I'm open to all idea's so you feel theres a mod that you feel was a good mod ill take it into consideration.

 

6 port engine?

 

4 Port

 

Aww, I was hoping you found a way to swap when you got your reman. Good luck to you!

 

Since you have a 4 port auto then I suggest you stick to suspension and aesthetic mods. The AEM is a waste of money unless you are just after the sound you achieve with an Intake. Same for a catback exhaust setup.

 

My first mods were exhaust and the AEM. Made an awesome sound but i was going just as fast as I was day one.. Next was coil overs and sways. Now I can make turns really loud. But on a real note, suspensions where its at! Feels like a whole new car with just a few suspension mods. Tons of fun.

 

If you want to really test your install skills, I suggest a set of energy suspension bushings. So far I only have the uppers installed and well I wouldn't recommend starting after 8pm. It was so late going home, I had to order from the breakfast menu.

 

If money is not an issue as you say I would:

1) Sell your 4 port
2) Buy a 6 port
3) turbocharge your 6 port w/ necessary supporting mods

 

a friend of mine spent a ton of money to turbo his 4 port and only makes about 10whp more than my n/a 6 port
