what year and model are you looking at getting. a buddy of mine has an older one that is an automatic turbo charged version. and for a small turbo set-up running a small amount of boost it scoots pretty good.

I know that with slight modification to the engine bay you can drop a BPT motor in there. Its a 230 Turbocharged HP motor.

You can get the engine from corksport at www.corksport.com

You should check out some MX-6 sites. They can help you out a little bit more.

You might want to check them out too. You can get everything you need minus tranny from them. They are based in Australia but Im sure you can get it shipped here.

i wouldnt go the whole BPT route.. i would go with the 2.5 V^ from the probe GT.. parts are plenty available its the same i dentical car under the hood plus if somethign breaks.. BAM its a ford. go up the street and get a replacemnt part. none of this JDM shit.

I own a 96 MX-6/LS(the V6) it is not the same under the hood as the MX-3. The MX-3 with a six has the smallest displacement ever to come out of a V6(1.8L) My car is very very fast and i would highly recomend that you get one :)

yes they are the same

trust me i know. the 1.8l V6s did kick ass though!

but yes the 2.5 V6 interchanges between the 3 cars with slight modifications. they are the same under the hood.

ive beaten all the V6 MX-6s ive come across so i know they are only a 16second car. but they feel MUCH faster just liek the probes do due to weight transfer. nothing against your car at all i like them alot but they make them feel faster than they really are. your motor would drop right into a V6 MX-3 engine bay.
