09 mazdaspeed 3
so i got my 09 speed a little over 3 weeks ago... the car is amazing! im thinkin my order will be for the cp-e nano sri, but id like to do motor mount as well. anyone have a preference? which you have felt is the nicest? something that wont be so harsh... suggestion??? thanks in advance.
 
corksport inserts will be fine if your looking for a quick easy solution but wont be the stiffest. you'll feel less vibrations. also depends on how much upgrading you wanna do. if your stopping at the sri that will be fine. i have the inserts now but will be stepping up soon i think because im going to do my downpipe and mid pipe.

for the time being...its going to be intake...xmas i think the girlfriend is buying me a bpv =] and if that is so, then i was going with exhaust shortly after. which puts me to the motor mount....? thats pretty much all the modding i really have in mind for a good while. i dont want to veture too far from stock.
 
I have the str33 tunit one and I have to say I have no complaints. Depending on how you use your clutch and shift, it will be much stiffer and responsive than stock. Mine's broken in, and vibrations are little to none even with the A/C on.

bpv wont do that much mostly sound and depending on what u mean by exhaust id say upgrade cat back doesnt do that much for this car. downpipe midpipe is a whole different ballpark. im thinking about doing the downpipe and midpipe myself. I'm pretty sure im going to need a stronger mount. I have a cai and stock exhaust and the inserts are nice in my opinion. catback shouldnt give much more than 5-10 hp. id say depends if you wanna spring. also dont forget to look at the stiffness rating or whatever its called. u wouldnt want race that would make your car rattle at idle.

yeah...im not really lookin for any crazy power gains...i just got the car, so im not gonna go crazy with it till down the road.
 
cp-e is releasing a revision of their mount, since I'm in the same upgrade situation as you I think that's going to be my mount. You can also get killer deals on cp-e parts, I ordered a nano new for less than I've seen a used one go for.
