mazdaspeed turbo option
 
Will mazda offer a dealer installed warrantied turbo system for 2.0 proteges?? The same calloway turbo system on the mazdaspeed protege of course.

ya but it means its more afordable for the rest of us......if i were to order a turbo kit for my pro right now...i'd be looking at 8k canadian (mind you i'd get 180-200HP)...i rather get something cheaper and get 20-30 more HP

Yeah, its a T-too small, but at least its a start. Any turbo "could" be put in its place;)

I said the turbo wasnt worth it, i didnt say anything about the manifold ;)

Well Second Gen DSMs come with the t25 (1G's with 14B) and some are running mid 13 second 1/4 mile times with just the stock T25. Also keep in mind they weigh a more than a Pro does.

Dealer installed with a warranty? That sounds unlikely, or ridiculously expensive if they did do it.

I've had this discussion before elsewhere.....not much bang for your buck....considering the price of shop labor.....you could do a lot better.

I'll tell ya what though. If I can get the mazdaspeed turbo done at the dealer and added onto my 0% loan through Mazda Credit I would so jump on it. :D I doubt they'll do that though hehehehe.

True, don't expect 300+WHP out of it, but I would prefer a smaller turbo anyway 'cause it spools faster, not as much turbo lag. Plus w/ the right tuning you could still get 200WHP out of it-that will be fine w/ me.

I'd have to agree. The T3 has many options for size and allows future upgradability.

mp5 June-30th-2002 03:11 PM

TURBO
 
I have seen the bellengineeringing turbo and it looks like a nice system. I am still considering my options untill my warranty is up.
