What kind of turbo setup did those speed proteges have? Could their engines hold a lot of power stock? I know these 2.0 MZR engines can take a good beating on power.

TBH, it was basically a GReddy T25 bolt on kit, slapped on the MP3. It worked, and the engine is pretty solid, but as DJ mentions, the stock turbos aren't very good. Mazda didn't really work very hard on it. Doesn't mean it's bad, but you gotta know what it is, and what it ain't.
