Probably the best thing to do is search out a Mazda forum and see what is available for Mazda's these days, I think there may be turbo kits available for them soon.

Simon (Boy Racer) should know he is the resident guru when it comes to ecu mods.

I could be wrong but I am pretty sure he doesn't have any Mazda connections.

Someone on beyond.ca would know.

I am not even sure such a thing exists.

i was looking into it to cause i have a family member who drives a mazda 3. and from what i heard its best off just o go with a turbo kit.

Re: Chip??

I have a friend who has dropped almost $2500 in mods in to her 2.0L 145HP Focus (same engine as the 3, same car, really) and there is minimal difference to how badly I crush her off the lights.

That kind of money goes a long way toward a turbo kit.

Also, The Mazda 6 GT will be here soon and it will have the 2.3l turbo, which means you can just get factory parts to turbo up the NA stuff. Not unlike what I did with my Neon in that I am using SRT-4 bits.

I wouldn't bother. For $1000-ish bucks, your friend will get maybe 10hp, slightly better throttle response, and will be forced to use 91 octane all the time
