It is a big difference. With the Mazda you have to really fight for every ounce power you can get. With the evo $100 bucks can get you 50 whp. (a ecu flash and a MBC). Every thing you do to the Evo will get you crazy results. Not to mention it's a strong motor that can take a ton of hp stock. I love Mazda's, but I am also really happy with my new car.
I have a hook up for a custom flash through the email for $50 - $75 and you can buy mbc's used for $25-$50 all day. As a matter of fact I have a barely used extra MBC right now. I just got a EBC. Hmm. Let me take that back, I have a barely used Turboxs MBC and I also have a Perrin MBC that I won't be using anymore. All you need for a email in tune is a tractix cable, and the logging programs that the tuner will usually provide. It's built into the price of the tune.

bump and checking in!
had an 03 msp, then a 06 shinka rx8, now a 06 IX MR
I so far have a cat back, testpipe, hks drop in, and c/d + slotted rotors w/ axxis ultimates. i'll be purchasing a new clutch and injen sri + u/licp then get it flashed. i had a maf adapter and fujita filter... but it made the car run like complete crap (no tune). so it came off
a buddy of mine just got a tactrix cable so i'll (well, he'll) be doing some tuning for driveability after my flash.

what are you guys paying for insurance? I was quoted some crazy high premiums and I have a perfect record. The STi was a bit worse in monthly premiums. I wanted to get a evo or an STi but I refused to except the rates of either one of them. Just didn't add up to me. I'm married, perfect driving record, damn near 30 years old, and have USAA which is always low. Hell, I even shopped the quote and came up with worse rates.....
the quotes i've gotten have been ~$200/month for 23yo w/ 1 ticket for 15 over 2 years ago. however i actually pay $100/month because i'm still on my dad's policy and he has homeowner's + 4 other cars on the same policy so i only pay what it costs to add my car
