I got my first Mazda delivered last week, its a red 6 MPS, electric pack and Sat Nav. I must say thats after first impressions an awesome car! I have previously owned a VW Golf r32 mk4 and this is a much better car - quicker, better handling, more equipment and importantly easier to upgrade the engine  I paid £6800 for a 2006 model with 60k miles, 12 months test and 6 months tax. I managed to sucessfully fit the xcarlink ipod and bluetooth at the weekend using the instructions posted on here. Will post some pictures at the weekend.

I am looking to upgrade in this order :
1. Corksport SRI & TIP
2. Corksport TMIC
3. Re-Map
I was considering looking at the exhaust and maybe getting a replacement downpipe but I am not sure how much improvement I would get?
I am looking to get 310bhp ish, am I being optimistic?
I will be starting the customisations at the end of the year.
Can anybody recommend a good dealer near Wigan?
