if its the 1.6, hiboost (http://www.hiboost.com/) makes a great kit. it made 290hp, at 16psi on pump gas. here are some links on another forum when the kit was first finished. here (http://www.mazdas247.com/forum/showthread.php?t=95913&highlight=hiboost+1.6) here (http://www.mazdas247.com/forum/showthread.php?t=101146&highlight=hiboost+1.6) and here (http://www.mazdas247.com/forum/showthread.php?t=97220&highlight=hiboost+1.6)
