Underdrive crank pulley, remover resonator, change Y-pipe.
I've done all those and noticed nice gains, including mpg.

He said simple and cheap, all those are fairly cheap.Yeah but he's looking to spend like no money.
My fuel economy went down after removing the resonator. And I have an opti y-pipe!
from what iv read under drive pulley really dose not do anything for our cars, but i have not researched a whole lot. :shrug:
An UD crank pulley will always show gains, you can read whatever you want but that is a fact.
I guess your Mazdas didn't show much but its still a gain right? Every test of underdrive pulleys I've ever seen show a gain, as they should, and its always been more than 1-2hp.

I have an UD Crank pulley and an UD power steering pulley. When I bought my car it already had the UD Crank pulley on it, so I can't comment on if I had felt any gains. With the UD power steering pulley I felt a difference, if not power wise than by the way the steering feels. I like the way it made the steering feel heavier, which I like and am used to because of my Go-Karting experience.
In my eyes, the UD power steering pulley had a gain, so I agree with biminiLX.
Do you have my OD pulley on it? Whats on your car now? Awesome that you had one already on your car. How are you liking the pulleys while driving around town?
Unorthodox pulley is .7lbs
ASP = 1.2 lbs
Stock = 5.2 lbs
