Just straight attacking his spelling.
PLEASE dont waste you energy and knowledge super charging a K8. Im sure after its all said and done you would be making N/A with full bolt on and Megasquirt ZE power (200ish)![]()

The K8 is just a weak weak terrible motor. I mean 130HP or so from a V6? Mazda stop trying to be unique. Sometimes its a stupid idea and its not even cool either. If it was a 1.8 and put out 160 from a V6 then THAT is something awesome. I mean they could of even brought the K8ZE and put them in the American MX3 and im sure it would of been more of a fan favorite. Even for 1992 and up the 4cyls in its class were putting out the same power.
honda guys are getting 170+ from 4cyl 1. whatever liters with little to no money. To get a K8DE there you would have to spend THOUSANDS+
Save yourself time and money and rebuild a DE from the ground up and throw a SC on it start with higher power and go higher. Also just a note. Probetalk.com is a AWESOME resource for KLDE and ZE knowledge and TONS of people have already supercharged a DE so you could just take notes from them. I havent read anything on super chargers here. Or maybe i havent looked hard enough....
....I think this guy already gave you the K8 answer you seek....but to add to your weak point Q is your wallet. Spend unnecessary to be different also send me some money if you can throw away dollars like that. Ill also leave you with this famous line. There is no replacement for displacement. Im sure your friend with a 1.6 meth nos turbo super speed fluctuator has spent a few thousands to get his power. Spend a little less and make double his numbers with just a turbo on a junk yard DE
