Welcome mate!
As for the pointers, try searching for:
Ignition coils
Clutch pedal
Catalytic converter
Premix
Fuel pump
and all the maintenance related stuff like oil viscosity etc (in TX i'd shoot for a 10w40)

Any infos on the car? Since you have an 04 make sure that you're running on the latest mazda flash

Welcome again!

Hello and welcome . Just do some looking around and you'll find whatever you're looking for . Since this is an 04 check that all flashes are done , check with your dealer or call Mazda for that info .

Good Luck ............

+1 on everything bse50 said but throw in Cobb AP from Mazdamaniac, oil catch can, and don't expect to gain much, if any, power through mods short of FI.
