It's ~130HP, unknown TQ..... .1L less displacement but has Mazda's Sequential Valve Timing. Supposedly the head can fit onto our ZM series bottom end...

It'd be a nice project and probably the 1st of its kind.

jaredspangler is on a distinguished road

130hp@7000rpm and 103 lb-ft @4000rpm on premium fuel. Here is the page with the specs. To convert kg-m's to lb-ft, multiply by 7.15
