It would be a quicker spooling turbo but with the small 1.8 v6 (kl-08) you might be better off just saving and doing a kl-ze swap. but if your really set on turboing the 1.8 then it wouldnt be that bad of a choice, and it is a ebay turbo so i wouldnt bump up the psi to much.

Re: What would this turbo do???

You would need a lot more than just that turbocharger to turbo your MX3. You would also need turbo manifolds/y-pipe, piping for the turbo's intake and to connect the turbo to your throttle body, and a way to increase the fuel flow to the injectors. You'd also probably want an intercooler and blow off valve.

You're looking at about $2000 more in labor and parts at a minimum.
