after reading up on some mazda engines , this one looks to be the 1.8l DOHC BP8 I believe, which was used in the 90 and up proteges..if im also not mistaken this is the same engin used in hte 323 gtx, and could be turboed down the road with a turbo manifold and decnt turbo? how much boost could it take? thanks
