I have a few questions abou the ford probe, mx6 and 626 engine. I have heard them called both the KLDE and the KL03 and thhey put out abotu 170 hp. I want to get one, how much are they approximately. Is a probe one better to get than the mx6 or vise versa???

The engines are all the same, they all have around 160-165 HP, what accounts for the H.P. difference is the ECU programming, the millenia has a higher comperssion ratio, better flowing heads and better flowing intake manifold, and has 170 H.P.

So if i'm looking to turbochage my engine i'd probbly go with the mx6 or probe, because they don't have as high compression???

The newest would be a 626 engine. I found one off a 97 auto 626 (IMO that's better than probe/mx6 since it wasn't beat on as much) with very low miles 60k. So look around for any 626's as well. I think they were still made in 98...
