Mods/parts to improve MPG and performance?

lol most of the time when an ad says that u can increase hp and gas mileage, its a hoax..turbonator and the tornado are some examples. lol i was reading a post on myspace in the protege side, they said that hooking up a blowdryer to ur intake or something is equivalent to the turbonator LMAO..these things may work but i read some stuffs about it. i think the tornado chokes up ur engine a bit so it uses less gas but it wont give any performance.

o yea another mod that ya should look into is a grounding kit. i'm gonna do that mod eventually(when i get the balls to or if some1 helps me xD) having a grounding kit improves throttle response and supposedly gives a slight increase in hp(according to the butt dyno xD) and gas mileage xD

with our car, theres only so much u can do wit it unless u go FI which u wouldnt want to do cause it eats up gas and burns oil like nothing xD
 
any mod will help cars mpg as long as u dont drive like a shmuck...upgrade exhaust an d intake means the engine has to work less to get the air required..but of course anyone with those upgrade will stay heavy on the gas...(thought)
 
yes xD its because it sounds so awesome wit WOT hehe

ok now for more car n00bness..

am i going to have any problems with any of the extras (CAI, exhaust, etc..) because of my car being an automatic?
 
nah not really. its ok to put all of those stuffs on ur car but it may/will void ur warranty. heh being that ur car is brand new, i wouldnt really go for aftermarket parts just yet. the dealer can actually screw u over by saying that ur mods cause a certain problem. u can get a CAI/exhaust/suspension parts from mazda which is known as mazdaspeed parts. these parts i know wont void ur warranty but it costs a bit more. hehe i got a mazdaspeed exhaust for my p5. theres one for the mazda3 i think too. all depends on ur dealer xD
