Well the Mazda Speed comes rated at 170, but thats to the crank. Most #'s put down to the wheels have been about 150 HP and Ft. lbs. of torque.

I personally love my Mazda Speed because of all the stuff that came with it. Just like any car that has not had alot of pre-production time...Mazda Speed protege's have been prone to a clunk in the rear end due to an improperly seated upper spring bushing. As well due to the fact that a company called Callaway made our turbo and had a role in the design fase, mazda still thought they would change the parameters on our PCM's. This caused a severly rich running car which you call the Mazda Speed. They came out with a Flash for our PCM's now that just advances your timing...which you dont want in a turbo car.

As well a few people have installed stand-alone to take the place of our shitty PCM's.

My opinion is that this is a rare car. Mine is # 886 out of 1750. The little things I can figure out to fix and any major problem's will eventually become recalls or campaigns threw the dealership.

Not only that with a slight amount of modifications you can easily be in the 13's with this car. With an injen CAI, MBC at about 10 psi, exhaust removed for track, and some Nitto's.
