anything is possible.... if that was the case, how the hell do people get away with 13b turbo's in r100's, rx2's and rx3's let alone a 20b (seen enough 20b's in rx3's to think something is wrong)....
our engineer says we can get our 86 engineered if you can up the weight past 1000kg and address the chassis strength and braking issue...
braking has been sorted though he wants us to convert the rear to discs.... other than that, just pass emmisions and we're set to go....

thats not entirely true. it is NOT LEGAL to fit a 13B in a KE20.
the weight used for capacity changes is the ORIGINAL weight. an engineer who uses the new weight is a) dodgy, and b) acting illegally.
if you crash, kill someone, and get taken to court, you and the engineer will be rooted.
ppl have them in the light mazdas because either they were engineered before the restrictions came in (like the V8 KE30 etc), or because their engineer is dodgy. simple as that.
you know all those modern cars in magazines with turbo conversion and aftermarket computers? NONE of them are legal, simply from an emissions point of view.
it is sort of a grey area from the publics point of view, but basically there are guidelines and limits for engineer certified. if an engineer certifies past those limits and gets takemn to court, you and he/she will lose. simple as that. they can't legally engineer past the limits (unless it is an ICV)
hope that clears some thing up
