Not at all, the engine specs may sound simlar but they are two totally different engines. The FAQ has more info about the two I believe...

I wish they were. There's a lot more parts & info out there for the Ford 2.0ltr Zetec, not to mention the Focussport head pkg that pumps out almost 160 hp to the wheels (N/A) for only $2000usd.

On the upcoming 4th gen Protege & 2nd gen Focus, they will share the Mazda-designed 2.3L I4 engine in the top-end models (same as in the 2003 Mazda 6)...but the respective 2.0L engines of the lower-end models will remain as is...

Are you sure? I thought the base Protege's and Foci would be getting Mazda's new 2.0L as the base engine. The one in the J-spec Mazda6 base model.
