Turbo Protege SE 1.6L Build

[Irallystuff]

Gonna post pictures and updates of my process with my turbo build, collecting parts rn and gonna try to post how to do the whole thing while being broke. Seeing too many people want to turbo it but nobody ever doing it or referencing some obscure 2003 forum guy so yeah.

Gonna use the mazdaspeed protege turbo garret t25 since I'm getting a good deal on it, got a new and bigger rad and new clutch. im missing a few things and gonna need to modify a manifold abit.

If anyone has some insight or questions feel free to ask! Gonna be a pretty long build process so ill write what i do piece by piece most probably…

Ive been thinking about alot of stuff and doing an K-Swap is alot more viable for what i want to do. I researched abunch on turboing the engine and the power just seems too limited. Ill make sure to make an guide on K-Swapping the protege fully !. If u have questions on turboing the protege feel free to ask tho, looked into it and got abunch of parts for it but just didnt seem worth it for my goals with the car.
( and ive had some talks about making an custom adapter plate for the tsx trans to an 13B )

Nice! I actually just finished getting everything mocked up and welded. I dug my heels in with the 1.6
