I'm guessing that your first language is not English... not that that's a bad thing just, where are you from Moody?
I am unaware of a supercharger available for the Mazda3/GX/GT/SP, etc... A turbocharger is though. It costs $4000 American and is offered from Hiboost. It is a complete, bolt on kit.
As far as staying naturally aspirated is concerned: Mazdaspeed, AEM (same as the MS,) Injen, Fujita are all good choices. It depends where you want the increase in the power band to be.
I personally chose the MS/AEM because I use my car daily and wanted more power in the low and mid-ranges... where it shines the most.
I did a lot of online research before I chose that one however... for two years asked others, read the forums andlooked for as many dyno sheets as I could find.
Does that answer your question?

HRM I don't see a Mazda 3 2.3 on that list though.....maybe those are diesel. The guy may be from Europe. The Mazda 2 looks pretty cool.....

There's definitely a 1.6L in Asia somewhere, at least I'm pretty sure Japan has one. There is also a bolt on supercharger kit somewhere over there. I remember reading a post.... somewhere...... from a guy who had one and loved it. Really I'm a member of too many forums as I can't remember where this post was. <sigh>

yeah .. 1.6Ls exists in South East Asia.. which is seriously underpowered for the 2L body.. anyway it's mainly from this forum www.mazdaclubsg.org .. the singapore version..

it depends on what you intend to do... you can simply change your current air filter to more porous ones like cotton or stainless steel.. simota and hurricane have them.. or ifyou can go for the CAI open pod short ram setup... second setup recommended imo if you are changing the exhaust and tuning the engine with a AFC or piggyback..

supercharging.. yes .. couple of 1.6Ls over here with illegal superchargers under their hood [sm=ts.gif]
