mx3 gtr engine swap

[Anubis]

I see that several folks have swapped the 1.8 v6 to 2.5 k03, and even a few KL-ZE engines. But what about the 1.8 GTX turbo in a MX3? Can it be done? -Easily? Or are extensive mods needed. It would seem to me that if the 2.5 liter 6 barely fits in the mx3, then the 1.8 turbo should be a better fit due to the smaller engine, in a decent engine bay. There is no substitute for larger displacement OR forced induction. Got any advice? Thanks for your time.<BR>

Since that is a 4cyl engine, and us V6 guys don't know jack about those little BP engines, you might have better luck posting this in the 4cyl forum. <P>[btw, it does fit, but IIRC trannies are an issue]<P>------------------<BR>David Coleman- <B><I>Moderator</B></I><BR><A HREF="http://www.PinkMX-3.com" TARGET=_blank>1993 Mazda MX-3 GS Special Edition</A><BR><B><I>Why get clear tail lights when only Geo Metros are gonna see them?</I></B>
