BP is the 1.8 n/a 4 banger.
BPT is the 1.8 4 banger with a vj20 turbo, lower compression, bigger injectors, different intake manifold, and a more restricted head.

B6-1.6l 323 motor
BP-1.8l Pro/Miata motor
BPT-1.8l 323 GTX/GT-R motor

there are two versions of the BPT. one has the VJ-20 turbo as stated before and makes roughly 180hp at the crank. the GT-R version has the VJ-22 turbo and makes 210hp at the crank.

The BPT will bolt right up to a BP tranny.
