Default proposed mods to my car (a.k.a. the vagon)

08 Mazda 5 (same as the Mazda 3)
short ram intake... $180 bucks
custom exhaust... $250-300 bucks
vibrant header... $440 bucks
intake manifold... $550 bucks
stand alone unit... $400-500 bucks

let's add that up shall we? I come up with $1970 bucks not counting shipping. All that for 10-20 horse power almost doesn't seem worth it, any opinions?

FWIW, I'd be hugely surprised if you even got ten horsepower out of those changes. I'd also be surprised if you didn't lose significant midrange torque as well.
