im in texas right now, but ill be back in kansas in a few weeks. thanks for the info. you sure that the only 1.8s were in japan?

 

[aMaff]

Well, they weren't in the US, not in the Protege5 chassis

 

[JoseProte83]

all 2002 and 2003 were 2.0L officialy for the USA. Maybe yours is imported somehow?

 

[SuperProtege5]

Stupid question, but how do you know it's a 1.8?

 

[ProtoType5]

On topic...It's a 2.0L...If you bought it in the US..

Protegegarage, Corksport...best two places also check the Forum Index, under authorized vendors...and there you'll be...a complete list of some of the easiest and most reliable vendors to buy performance parts from.
cheapest is here on the forum...just don't get too addicted...it will burn a quick hole in your pocket...

that just what i was told when i baught it at the dealership. i never thaught to question it. i got it used in 05.

 

[susamafone]

dealer didnt know what they were talking about. did you buy from a big dealer or some little private car dealer?

Hmmmmmmmmmmm?

Protegegarage, Corksport...best two places .

i agree

pop the hood and take a pic! They didn't sell any P5's with anything other than a 2.0 in the US. Go back to the dealer and slap the guy in the face that told you it had a 1.8

the 1.8 and 2.0 look alot alike though...

IF IT SENSORS IT OUT DONT CHEAT THE SYSTEM, DO YOU PEOPLE THINK WE WONT SEE THIS OR WHAT? COME ON MAN, YOU KNOW BETTER THAN THAT.

But would we not be able to tell if it was a US-spec P5? By the front bumper and what not?
