92hp auto against 170hp more than likely with a mtx. it's gonna take more than a little. w/o forking over a ton of money to get that motor up to par....look into nitrous, motor swap, or custom turbo kit. but my advice, if you want steert performance of ANY kind, get a mtx :cool:

Actually isn't the Protege LX a 130hp car? It's the se model that has 92hp. You still have a lot of work to go to catch upto a gsr.<BR>Might I suggest taking the motor out and have the cylinders bored out and the heads ported and polished.<BR>I think the only engine that would be easier to take out would be a honda engine?
