Do a search about turboing...
To get that 200 hp at the wheels you will either need a decently priced JDM turbo goodies kit, or a lot of $$ on NA building. For cost effectiveness I say turbo. For uniqueness I would say go NA, maybe get a flying miata 2.0L stroker kit.
Of course the uniqueness you already have with the LX-E, you don't see too many of those.2011 BMW 128i 6 Speed Manual -- dd

and the 2.0 stroker is like 10x more money than a backyard turbo build...Escort GTR -- 11.87 @ 117.6 mph -- 320 HP / 325 Ft. Lbs. @ 23 PSI

Yea its almost impossible to squeeze 200whp out of a bp without alot of money. I say if you want a nice reliable 200whp go turbo.1993 Protege LX-Midnight's shadow SOLD
