    Luke you may be the first with this type of upgrade, but I'm sure the forum here will make sure you're not on your own. What you're doing here for the whole MPS/Mazdaspeed community is groundbreaking stuff and is what makes enthusiast forums like this so much fun. Most of us here would probably never dream of doing major mods of the like you're planning however we can read about and share your experiences which is almost as good as doing it yourself.

    I tip my hat to you mate, and wish you success with this venture and like others will follow you every step of the way! May even have to make a trip over when it's finished

    Great work mate

    Not sure about the specs on SP25s but do they have a larger bore ore larger stroke?
    If larger stroke could a SP25 crank be an option?

    Most likely its a bore difference, but it could be something to look at
    Will need to shorten the rods tho? mpsg have the rods waiting to go in.

    specs for bore and stroke 2.5ltr and 2.3ltr

    I was with Reedy thinking that the bore would have been different. Was only a passing thought about stroke. But hmmmm.
    Stroking the 2.3 could be a very good way of getting the torque your looking for.
    Wonder if it is possible to fit a 2.5 crank to the 2.3?

    Failing that, are you using stock or oversize pistons?
    Wonder if there is enough meat in the block to bore the motor so its square? (equal bore and stroke)

    None of this may help you Luke, but a couple of interesting questions for the next person who wants to go all out with a motor (Troy )

    2xs ( troy) has all the info on the turbo and mani. pretty sure its the normal 3076 a/r 60 (correct me if im wrong troy). the CPE rods/pistons ( cpe revised k1's and wisco pistons) head will support the power and rpm, using eibach valve springs (head will remain standard ) the build will be finished 28th january (hoping).

    ---------- Post added at 01:08 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:45 AM ----------

    had a few pm's come through suggestions,things that will work and may not. DI should hold to 8000rpm as long as the cpe fuel pump spring can keep up. head will be ok till 8000rpm with the eibach valve springs ( retainers may be a problem ). Have been advised and also with my cam experience ( which is ok i think) will hold up. i still feel spining a bearing is a big concern even with the race bearings MPSGarage feel the same, so i have advised them to cut it off at 7700rpm i know the stroke will be ok till 7800rpm can increase later when a few more ks on the clock. In the past i have spun bearings in motors i have rebuild due to the rpm. once due to lack of oil preasure, looking at the mps oil pump cant see this being a problem. CANT WAIT TO SEE THIS COME TOGETHER hopefully not apart

    The turbo is a Garrett GT 30/76 with .60 compressor cover.

    Check the "30/71 : a direct bolt on" thread, all the details are in there aswell

    that should be good for spool and a power output of easily over 400whp - thats what the guys in the US are getting with that turbo. im assuming a T3flange with ex wastegate ?
