Came in 2 forms intercooled (water-air) and non intercooled. 165 and 145 hp respectively. They ran a small Garrett T03 (42/49 AR's) off a log style exhaust manifold and produced around 6 psi boost.
Base CR was 7.6:1. Intake valves are quite small but exhausts are the same size as 5M. Unfortunately they are hard to find nowadays, but there is one in a Jap import wrecker in Adelaide for $1000!
The usual thing to do is rip off the turbo stuff and whack it on a late 4M or a 5M. It produces a significant improvement in performance over the standard 5M. You need to consider oil feed/return lines, and fuelling it. MTEU dizzy automatically retards timing with the onset of boost.
MS75 had one of these producing ~500 hp.
