Hi guys,

I’m planning of up grading my car for better performance,
I’m having a the below mentioned car
MAZDA BJ5W / 1.5L VVT, Front Disk rear Drum/ 5 Speed Manual, 1999 model

I’m not very happy about the pulling power, I’m planning to do the following up grades but I have some concerns

I’m planning to put a high performance air intake system, replace the spark plugs with iridium, and the plug wires, the exhaust system is there is a specific model for this with the spec

My concerns are

Since this is a VVT this comes with an 2 air flow sensors, will it be a problem?

is it ok to change the plug with performance plugs and wires do i have to change the coil as well?

Can I get the specs with design of the exhaust which really fits this engine so I can custom made since those are not available hear?

any other upgrades I could do for this to improve the power and performance

you all mailing could mail me directly your advices to
safraz.nawaz@dialog.lk

Thank You

First upgrade the engine to BPT. There are more upgrade parts for that engine on the market, so u'll get more power instantly, then u can work on other upgrades (suspension etc.)
Just my 2 cents
