Looks like the engine is a Mazda B3 used across alot of different cars so just google mods for that.
I'd prob just suggest your typical induction and exhaust mods, but there's not much u can do with a 1.3l NA motor. Then there's this

I've heard of a few people doing B6 & BP engine conversions.
Do a quick google and you'll find a few conversion threads. I recon a BP-T conversion in one would be awesome

Haha I have the same issue with iPhone! Grr.
It looks like I'll stay with the intake for now :P. All the effort for a turbo.. Would be incredibly rare and surprising at the lights! Haha but the work involved.. Wow.. Ahwell. 1.3L of fun is enough for the little beast I think!!

you could always do a little more if you wanted to,
uni chip ECU it, extractors, cams if available, PnP head, larger valves, larger injectors. Good tune.
