225 hp turbo Mazda...
...engine in the upcoming Ford Focus SVT for 2004. Well, that really sucks. It looks like for us Mazda owners they just put a bandaid on the lack of power for the MP3. But for the Focus they really get to work 
Also the Mitsubishi Lancer will have a 170hp 2.4L NA engine with a beefed up suspension on their OZ Rally edition.
P.S.- On the Road test results of MotorTrend they list:
Protege5 16.8/82.7 mph 1/4 mile e.t. Top speed:124 Slalom:66.4
MP3 16.8/82.3 mph 1/4 mile e.t. Top speed:132 Slalom:64.8
Just a thought...

Different magazines always post different slalom figures. It depends on the nature of their course, how long the course is, how far the cones are spaced, tire temperature etc. Not to mention some drivers drives the car harder than other. All these contribute to the discrepencies in the slalom.
