"Speedlabing" a mere 1.3l engine

[Redfox20]

Ive got a mazda 2 1.3 liter m/t. For such a small engine, will there be a significant increase in power if upgrades of intake, exhaust and chip replacement are done?

yes there will be..but not that significant..since you can only do so much on a 1.3 mill ..bumped a few horses maybe.....well theres also gonna be a significant change on your wallet IMHO :D

if you are able to squeeze 20% more power with all the possible mods then that would be very significant. but as sir boybawang mentioned, you should have a deep pocket ready to dig...

Significant? No.

The car as it is, is already fun to drive. Make sure you are able to max out its limits first before you upgrade.

Bring it to the twisties of Tanay. I'm sure the power that your car has is already enough for you to enjoy the drive.

It's not the power you will be making that is significant, it will be the sharper response, finer tune and better engine management that will be the significant bump.

There's a very successful 1.3 liter Mazda2 racecar using Speedlab parts.

The only issue, if I recall, is they guy busted an intake manifold due to an issue with the nitrous valve. (yeah, running nitrous). The car is still not a rocket in a straight line, but the handling of the chassis makes it incredible in the corners.

The main reason i bought the 2 is the fun to drive aspect. Dami nga kumontra eh pero true love eh hehe.
Thank you for confirming my thoughts that it would be too expensive to get only a little added power.
I did read that article about the winner m2 racecar thats why i was inspired to upgrade stuff.
Bakit kasi walang 1.5 liter na hatch na manual eh? But in any case im happy

Intake exhaust and chip will be enough for the 1.3 to almost match 1.5s. I'd say from 85 hp to about 100 hp.

To match the big boys (Ecoboost, Accent Diesel), you need a turbo.

But by the time you get a decent turbo kit, you've spent enough to buy up. Heck, the CRDi starts at just 728k.

Not to say that upgrading is pointless. I think a chip and header combo, plus 15" wheels and decent tires are about all you need to have a little more fun with your car.

check also tuning shops that offers remapping the ECU. maybe they can squeeze some or more power without even modifying your intake, exhaust and adding chip.

[Redfox20]

I couldve gotten ecoboost or crdi but fun to drive is my priority. Poweris just secondary.
So indeed i will likely limit myself to intake, exhaust, chip. Im already eyeing 15inch mags. Im fancying a rays g12 copy.
Im new here in cdo so i dont know the shops yet. Ill look around for a shop that can tinker with chip. Thank for the good advice guys

Given those restraints, then, I'd go for the intake (possibly a short ram) , header and the wheels. That should be enough for you to have more fun with the car.

I love the Mazda2. Nifty little car, lots of fun on mountain roads.

If available, short or a long runner intake manifold will be a wonderful addition

Cold Air intake
Lighter wheels
Grippy Tires

I saw in somewhere that speedlab offers cold air intake + headers + chip. Supposedly, the vios 2nd gen (1.3L) was able to go 180kph sa NLEX
