Hi everyone, this is my first post, i\\\'m excited, anyway, I found that our 2.3L I4 ecotec motor in the 3 is the same motor that Ford is putting in their Focus ST, the 2.3L I4 Duratec and i knew that cosworth performance, www.cosworth.com is producing internal parts for that Focus ST motor, parts like camshafts that produce gains in the range of 30-40 HP (http://www.cosworth.com/shop_range.php?typeid=10&PHPSESSID=d464ca237282dd0 c9c92dd0443e76), they have an authorized dealer on B.C. so for those interested on this upgrade we can try a Group Buy.

Let me know your opinion about this.thanks

Ahhhh.... the excitement of a new owner :) How refreshing. But.... I am sorry to inform you that ST parts willnot work in the 3.
Yes. Ford and Mazda share the engine, but they are not the same. Camshafts for the ST have been out quite awhile, but no word on Mazda 3 cams yet. Cosworth has rods....but ya don\'t need those unles you are doin\' a $10K engine/turbo build.

There is always new stuff coming out.... keep your eyes peeled
