R & T has an article that claims that a Turbo Charged MP3 is in the works that will produce 180HP. GRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!

It's also said (page 48) that Mazda is testing a HOT version of the MP3 that should make at least 180hp and will be available sometime next year. But they didn't said the 180hp come from a turbo. It's on the INSIDE LINE from Sam Mitami and he said that this info come directly from Mazda. The other thing about the turbo (page 23) is from a reader that say that Mazda should do a turbo version of the MP3.
