*i did some searching, saw a thread like this, but didn't see anything about an engine with a turbo.*
recently my car started knocking, and i need to replace the engine. i told my mechanic i'd try to find something that fits, but i'm having a hard time finding the exact engine i had before. i DID, however, find a 2003 MazdaSpeed protege engine for $1300, which is in my price range. i drive a 2002 Mazda Protege ES. will this engine fit in my car? i'd be very happy if this is possible for under 2 grand, the 40HP boost and the acceleration boost would be nice. will i also need to install an intercooler, or what's the deal? thanks in advance. - Matt
ps - first post! haha
