Default Turbo charging 2016 CX 5 GT KE2

Gidday mates!

I have a 2016 CX 5 GT 2.5L and I've been driving it for last 2 years. Now I'm feeling like it's time to do some power upgrades and looking for advise on turbo charging my car. Did anyone turbo charged their KE series2 CX5 here? I would love to hear the experiences, experts opinions and the mod details you have done. Lets discuss!

Thanks
Saj

This has been discussed on other Mazda forums regarding the SkyActiv-G engines. The general consensus is the compression ratio (13:1 here in the U.S. and probably 14:1 for Down Under) is way too high for an effective forced induction application. If cost is no object, you might consider buying one of the new blown 2.5s Mazda brought to the market a year or two back.
