there is really no motor swap that nets you any real gains on the 3rd gen Protege. the FS-ZE won't show you any gains without the Jspec ECU, which won't work on our cars without a totally different harness among other things. Your best bet, and cheaper in the long run, is to go with a turbo kit.

HiBoost kits have been fitted to alot of cars with automatics
