I experience none of the above.

120,000mi. (Need a new timing belt now). There are plenty more people with higher mileage without problems...

 

Mine has 93k miles. Still pulling like a mother... I call driving what others call abusing. U get the idea.

 

Well ive heard countless stories of them burning oil after 100k. Glad ur motors arnt burning yet ...Jon

 

Has anyone else here ever have spontaneuous stalling?? If so, please help...

My idle is already turned up to 950 rpm...

 

I bet they haven't been taken too good care of...

BadAZZ -- search the forum for info, then start a new thread about it, if you haven't already...

 

Well i was on protegetech for a year and a half and ive been on here for almost a year now and ive seen plenty of posts about this problem. My friend who works in a mazda dealership said its common to get them in for burning oil also. So please jesse explain to us why a 950 dollar bp motor with say 75k is better than a bpt motor with say 37k for 1000. Inless u have a good condition bp motor to swap in to turbo charge or u have a bp already in ur car to turbo charge i dont see the point ur trying to make for like 50 bucks more u get a better condition turbo engine ? . With injectors and a cool turbo sticker. so u save 50 bucks and have to go get valve seals and install them ... im confussed.. Jon

 

As far as i can tell its not that big of a difference when ur just looking for 200 hp. Maybe 1 or 2 psi difference. It only makes a huge difference when ur looking for higher amounts 250 plus . I think we know that the lx head is better thats all ur trying to prove . Thats cool make the same power with 1 or 2 psi less dont worry ur motor has 100 thousand miles on it and ur beating the crap out of it ....Lame .....Jon
