The manifold won't fit the 1.6, and with that the downpipe won't fit as well, but aside from that it could work.. wait no nevermind, basically just the turbo will work since whatever manifold you find will position the turbo differently, thus rendering the intercooler piping useless.

Here's an easy way to get a mazda 3 turbo cheap:
1) buy the biggest POS truck you can for $250
2) rear end the first mazdaspeed 3 you see. Once it's declared a write off, offer the guy $300 bucks for his turbo. Problem solved.

the manifold should technically fit the 1.6 seeing as the flanges are the same. i cannot guarantee it will work though.

How do you know if you actually have a ticket? Did anyone get an email indicating they have one.
