Default makin' it better

Hey people, i'm new to this forum, and Mazda. I drive an '03 Protege DX, 2.0L. Wanted to hear about what some of you guys out there have under your hoods, and what good upgrades should be made for a Protege. I've made no changes, only my exhaust system, but I hope to do some more with some helpful tips.

Default RE: makin' it better

i have done mild mods to my car so far. the list goes;
Injen CAI, ported and polished intake manifold, 20% short throw, 88 durometer AWR engine mounts, cat delete, exhaust tip.
short list so far but it is getting there. as far as my favorite mod, i would say that the engine mounts are my favorite so far. they gave my car that kind of race car feeling all though they are a little rough on start up. they got rid of that "wheel hop" and replaced it with the tire burning firmness that i needed.
