Which vehicle carries the best KL03?

Post by mattster »

I know that the Probe, MX-6, and 626 carry the KL03... but which carries the best choice?
92 Mazda MX-3 GS: blaze red, bone stock, and daily driver
86 RX-7 GXL: '94 LT1 V8, 6 speed tranny, scary fast. SOLD
93 Mazda RX7 R1 LS1/6speed... 75% complete

The reason that I was wondering was because they always say "162-169 hp depending on the engine"... could anyone explain??
