Subject: No cheap go-fast mods for "e" cars?

My lowly 3, an eee-tee-aye
eats EggWu racers every day
Miatas, too, and Nine-Four-Fours
are often looking for their doors
and thinking hard back on the day
they mocked my little eee-tee-aye

A three-point-two-five L-S-D,
two hundred bucks or maybe three,
a three-beer job which goes in great
(swap output flanges, backing plate)
Now dump the stock chip, 1-2-3,
for Jim C's own variety
With cutoff raised and flat spots dead, shift 1st through 3rd right in the red

No AFM or intake mods,
just rear-end swap and Sharked, by God
Four hundred bucks, or maybe five
make eee-tee-ayes just come alive

They're no M3s, as you could tell
but they're plentiful and cheap as hell and if it's smashed, hey, no big sin
grab chip and diff and start again
with another "e" for a coulple "K"
I love my little eee-tee-aye
