2006 mazda5 4cylinder duratec performance parts?
OK, so I was wondering since the Mazda5 inline 4 engines 2.0-2.3 were also built on the same platform as the Duratec 4's in Ford Focus's… Wouldn't our be easier to just search/buy performance parts for a Focus than to search for the Mazda? The engine in the '06 Mazda5 AT is absolutely dreadful. Help… Ugh… So frustrating to travel in this Mazda. Need more oomph.
Best to sell it and buy something closer to what you want. It isn't like the 70s, when cars were so horrible, anything you did helped performance.
- Will high performance spark plugs have any benefit in a non performance car? To start I have a 2002 Ford Focus ZTS with 150000 miles on it. It needs new spark-plugs, and the only two types the store has that fit my car are Autolite Platinum and Bosch Platinum IR Fusion. My question is for my car, is there any advantage to spending the extra 14$ to get the higher end spark plugs or would it just be a waste of cash?
- How to add seafoam through the vacuum line in a 2012 Ford Focus 2.0 L Duratec Ti-VCT I4 GDI? I can find nothing for a modern Ford Focus all I find is ztech crap and focus from last gen.

- Ford Fiesta Mark 7: 1.6 Duratec Petrol vs 1.6 TDCi PSA/Ford? I'm looking to buy a 2008-12 Fiesta Zetec S trim and wondered which engine is best. I will be buying the car on around 85000 miles. Which engine is more reliable and can go to higher mileage (>125,000) easier? What are common issues on both engines? What are common issues with the MK7 Fiesta in general? What's real world mpg (I'm aware this varies person to person but would still like to know)?
