Google owns the hell outta you guys! Mazdaspeed Protege was a 1.8 turbo made only in 2003, 2005 ended the NB chassis Miata with another 1.8T Mazda, now theres the Mazdaspeed 6 which has actually been out for a while. Mazda announced it at least a year ago. Also announced was a Mazdaspeed 3 with the same drivetrain except FWD only. CX-7 will also have the 2.3 direct injection turbo, making the company much more appealing and one day there will be 2.3 turbos everywhere in junkyards for people to swap.

Probably going to be another Mazdaspeed MX-5 as well, though one can only hope they use the same drivetrain.

I agree. My 1.6 leaves me wanting a bit more, and forced induction > *. Honestly, if I get the money one day, I dont think there would be a more perfect setup than the 2.3 DISI

They're also in the works of releasing a Mazdaspeed 3. I'm hoping it comes with AWD. I've driven the Mazdaspeed 6 and it pulls. I love the car, but it's just not something I can afford right now.
