From what I've read the short time I've been on the forum is, NO. I wish Superchips made one for our Mazda3's. I have one for my 04 Hemi Ram and it lowered my 0-60 and 1/4 times by a full 1/2 second, I even get a 2nd gear scratch at WOT when it shifts.

only little things at this point, unless you want to spend the cash on the Microtech standalone ($1400). there is a guy that optimizes the stock TB ($130 i thing?) to give a much better throttle response, and a tad of hp. there should be an intake manifold out later in the year that will work, in the $500 range, or you can spend $700 for the Cosworth manifold that is out currently.
depending on what you do with your car, there are some better things you can do than HP.
autox, you should be looking at suspension and tires
road race, you should be looking at suspension, brakes, tires
1/4 or stoplight racing, you can go for some smaller wheels and better tires and you'll feel a big gain

just to let u know there is no such thing as a fast all motor 3....and there wont be for a long while. A turbo doesnt really make a car unrealiable its all about if its put in right, if its tuned right, and most importantly if u keep or gas pedal off the floor.

I gotta agree with Mr Tea. In fact I set my car up for cornering with work to the suspension, tires and brakes. I'd love to go forced induction (HiBoost) just to around 4 psi (200 whp) I think that would be a great improvement, reliable (even for an Atx) and quick enough but just a little 2 expensive. Unfortunately Hp is expensive.
