    well i parted out my GTX escort when it started running crappy, bought a 88 mazda gtx and modded that but now i blew the front differential in the stock 1.6 awd tranny so i started to 1.8l rebuild and found this.....

    Ooops, missing a little piece on the exhaust side and a bit eatten up

      oh that is nifty.
      No car! I soldz it. Now I have a truck. I like it, but apparently it has a hard time keeping up with a slightly modified 4WD protege with half the hp. Neat.

            think of it as weight savings. and lower compression. just turn up the boost!
