New Mazda Turbo-4 Replaces SkyActiv-D
Details on the MZ-2.0T that Mazda has released include a rating of 570 horsepower and a redline of 9,000 rpm. The direct-injection system feature multi-hole, spray-guided injectors and a fuel rail pressure of more than 1,500 psi. The Garrett turbo is mounted to a 4-2-1 exhaust manifold and will provide just under 38 pounds of boost to the custom carbon fiber intake manifold. Compression ratio is 13.5:1.
The MZ-2.0T replaces the 2.2-liter, compound-turbo SkyActiv-D diesel engines used for the past two years in the Mazda prototypes built by SpeedSource Race Engineering and Multimatic Engineering. EngineLabs offered an in-depth look at these engines two years ago. Team officials are now optimistic about the move to a gas powerplant.
Wonder how many dollars it would take to stuff one in a Mazda3? Im guessing lots and lots of them.
