Should i "upgrage" or not
Hey,
So i currently own a 1999 Mazda Protege ES 1.8 and wanted a little more power while still having a Protege, SO i was looking into the 2003 MP3 or the 2003 MSP and wanted to know
1) What's the major difference between the MP3 and the MSP
2) I heard all types of things saying that the engines in MSP are REALLY fragile and that if you push any more real horsepower out of the motor, it could blow...is that true? cause i would like to HEAVILY modify the MS protege if i decided to go with it
Any Thoughts? Should i keep my 1.8 and convert IT into a turbo?
(heard my 1.8 is MUCH stronger...true?)
Should i cram the Mazdaspeed 6 (thats pushing about 276 HP)motor into it?
Or a mazdaspeed 3 motor into it
or even a RX-7 motor into it? (Maybe the '95 R2?)
Can anyone post a link to some turbo kits for my 1.8 protege? (GOOD ones please)
I need answers lol thanks!

What country are you in?
The JDM or NZ or OZ spec SP20 ( 2 litre ) 323 / Familiar / Protege go quite nicely.
