Not a T-25, but a Garret T3... http://www.flyinmiata.com/protege/tech/specs.asp

One reason Stroke us' recieved great aftermarket support was the ZX 3. Protege's did not have any truly sporty version of the small sedan when the ford was released. 3rd gen pros always handled great but they didn't have much of a aftermarket wave until post MP3. People looked at the small hatchback as a decent alternative to the Civc. Now with the MP3 MSP and Pro5 all part of the 3rd gen there are more platforms to choose from (basically just the Pro5, the rest are sold). The are a couple of turbo kits coming (some already available) and hundreds of other things to do to pros. They do look better and hanlde better stock, and with more and more people realising that it won't be much of a problem soon
