2.3L DISI Turbo (L3-VDT)
Mazda L3-VDT direct injected turbo
An award-winning turbocharged version of the 2.3 with direct injection spark ignition, or "DISI" is also produced.
It develops 263 hp (196 kW) @5,500 RPM and 280 lb·ft (380 N·m) @3,000 rpms and is capable of propelling the Mazdaspeed3 from 0–60 mph in 5.6 seconds.[5]
While the 2.0 Ford EcoBoost engine and its later 2.3 variant share a cylinder block with the L3-VDT and are derived from the Mazda L architecture,
little else is shared between the EcoBoost and L3-VDT and they should not be confused with one another.
The EcoBoost engines have different turbochargers, Ford-designed heads, different direct injection systems along with featuring Ford's Ti-VCT variable valve timing system
instead of Mazda's S-VT.[6]
Applications:
2005-2007 Mazdaspeed6/Atenza MPS
2006-2012 Mazda CX-7
2006-2012 Mazdaspeed3/Axela MPS
2006–2010 Mazda MPV (JDM only)
