ok ...thanks for the fast response

no problem...my understanding is that the bulk of the car was assembled in japan and the msp goodies (turbo kit, etc) were installed here in the states when the cars arrived.
 
The callaway turbos are put on at dockside in NJ after the boats stops at LA first. My friend works for that dock and he was the first one to tell me about MSP's problem with turbos blowing up when cranked up. :)

i guess mine and some others are just walking time bombs...thankx for the heads up.
 
I think there is the msp in japan correct me if i am wrong.. as i know the protege is called familia... I think that the Familia Sedan A-spec in japan is similiar to the 2003 mazdaspeed protege... i am not too sure about the ecu and turbo thing.. but check the japan mazdaspeed site.. http://www.mazda.co.jp/mazdaspeed/ or the familia japan site http://www.familia.mazda.co.jp/

there is no 2003 MSP in japan. the 2003 MSP is US only.
 
the familia sport20 sedan in japan looks like the msp, but its very different(better) like the 170hp n/a motor. so the ecu is different
 
what the hell !!! the sport20 a-spec sedans get a lot of really good s***. i want the 1.3bar rad cap and that blue Mazdaspeed air filter ! someone w/ a lot of time and money import a sport20 a-spec w/ the FS-ZE and have some fun turbocharging and shizzle !
 
damn those selfish bastards. they keep all the cool stuff for themselves. i heard there arent even all that many civics over there
