    Cost $135 total for a 4th Gen to do these modifications which will lead to the best performance especially when combined with a tune. A tune is not needed to do those modifications BTW.
    You can’t even buy a new intake for that low of a cost!

    Just found your channel, awesome build! I have a 2022 Mazda3 MT that I'm trying to decide on power upgrades after I upgrade all the differnt suspension components and get some light-weight wheels. I'm happy to see this kit is holding up.
    Have you seen mikstore has a bunch of cf hoods now? You considering getting the oem one and dropping all that weight from the oem? You could paint the exterior of it to maintain the sleeper build

    • @supermazda3

      ​@@supermazda3 I was looking for more detail because 12 pounds doesn't sounds right for how heavy the oem hood is.
      The only hood I see them give a weight figure on is the "KODO" hood, mostly made of FRP with just that CF inlay. Were you able to get more information directly from mikstore?

    hi Justin, I have a Mazda 3 2.0na, will apply the mod u suggest. For the air intake, do you think ram air intake system is much better than a k&n drop-in air filter? maybe drop-in air filter is enough? i deleted my second cat, and i use Flowmaster super 10 series single chamber muffler... final target is to have the VT twin screw supercharger...

    Been reading about some people taking thier stock airboxes and removing the lower resonater half. This apparently helps with airflow, and also gives the engine more sound. Those with the turbo said it gives it all those sounds that the SRI would give, like the blow off sound, ext.. However, others chime in and say its not worth because its now pulling in warmer air and reduces performance. Curious if you have seen anything about this mod, or have any thoughts! Its a lot cheaper (free) then buying an SRI kit lol

      @@supermazda3 makes sense. I was thinking about trying it on mine, but I have a turbo and there's actually no resonator at all on my air box. An aftermarket cold air intake is really my only choice if I'm chasing for engine sound without losing performance. I'm thinking I'll just fabricate my own in the shop though, 250+$ for pipes and filters is crazy to me!!

    Ive got a great question. My 2021 skyactive G 2.5L NA has some lag. So when I push the throttle down I move forward but very slowly then it goes 2sec later. However this only happens when im not shifting the gears for it. I'm wondering if maybe its not down shifting from 2nd. Only happens when coming to a stop. What are your thoughts?
