Escort GT

I've heard a lot about the escort GT engine in a Pro. What (compared to a SOHC 1.8L) advantages does an escort gt engine have on a 1.8 sohc? Is it turboed, can I run a turbo? Will it bolt directly in? If there is a website with all of these answers let me know.

Yes, it is the exact same motor that is in the protege lx. The only difference is the valve cover. No it's not turbo charged, yes you could turbo it.
