I'm trying to think of what to get for my next mod.

I'm thinking of either the Simota CF intake (Umnitza intake), or the Whiteline rear fixed sway bar.

What do you guys think?

sway bar!  more handling...that's my opinion anyways cause i've always headed for the suspension first.  It was the first mod i did to my car besides the hids.  I say get the whiteline as we have the special pricing now so it's a good time to buy. 

From what I have read on the forums and the reviews posted.  There is a mixed debate on the simota intake.  The dyno numbers are not consistent and they vary all over the place.  Check out the tread on mazda3forums.  Some have said that the intake has given them some gains and others either have experienced no gains or poor performance.  If anything I'd recommend going with a K&N Typhoon, or AEM intake.  With the K&N you can convert it to short ram and have the CAI as well when you want it.  AEM is only CAI so you'd have to cut the tube if you want the SRI.  But read around to see people's reactions to it.  It's definitely mixed.  But if you read the AEM threads they are mixed as well but they do have more results that are consistent (dyno proven wise).

I want the ricey sound though Wink

But in all seriousness, that's what most people tell me too, and that is to get the rear sway.

You could always modify the airbox/resonator and put a K&N filter in instead. That is what I plan to do.
