I hear that the 1.7L v6 turbo (K7T) from a 98 626 is almost a direct swap. You just have to swap the bigger ac compressor since it will be used to cool the coolant. Unfortunately those were made and released only in Japan in feb-mar 98. It makes 256 Hp but only 192 ft-lbs torque. Try contacting the japanese importers in your area.
If that doesnt work out try doing a search and read the faqs and worklogs over at the mx-3.com website.

for an etest the difference between the two wouldnt be that much. cat,air filter, egr,etc. if they are in good working order, you shouldnt have a problem.

There is a number of engines that can be installed while using your existing mounts they are:

BP from ford escort or 90-94 protege

BPT Jdm 323 (turbo)

B6T 1.6 of a capri or 323 gtx US (turbo)

Your transmission will bolt up to any of these without modification
