You get what you pay for so save your money. I would not recommend this at all.

On something as sophisticated as your Mazda, playing with detonation and timing can cause a big noise under the hood. Go for the heftier wires. I'm thinking that you should only add one new item to the engine at a time, so that you know what it enhances or restricts. :|

I'd be willing to splurge on some Dyno time with some people, for a day to play around with ignition timing. Fill your tank with Premium, then advance it a bit, do a dyno run, advance it a bit, do a dyno run. When we hear some pinging, retard the time one-degree, and we're good to go. Also, if anyone has adjustable cam gears, a dyno is a great place to get the most out of your motor.....
