Of course; why would you think it was different? Same with the 6.The new Mazda3, has the same engines as us?
If it doesn't have a SkyActiv badge on the rear hatch (in witch case it would be the 2.0 ltr with 12:1 compression), it will either be the old 2.0 ltr or 2.5 ltr non-SkyActive engine.I'm driving a '13 M3 and I can't find any info about the engine size.

He asked if: "The new Mazda3, has the same engines as us?" new as in 2014 Mike. Only the 2013 Mazda 3 had the non-tubular header and 12:1 compression ratio.No, in terms of the tuning maps, they would be vastly different because the Mazda 3 Skyactiv does not have the extended length tuned header.

With a diesel engine you get more out of a remap:

Most likely if you are trying to increase your engine output, you are not worried about fuel econ, and since these motors are tuned based on load, when you are cruising you aren't consuming more than usual. When you are wot, different story. Emissions? That's partly why tuning can change the performance towards a different preference.
It's not an issue of outsmarting a mazda engineer, it's an issue of changing fueling and vvt + all of the other variables a tuner understands (not me) without the constraints of the EPA and their precise emission measuring equipment.
Also, just found this on youtube and thought it was pretty cool to see the capability of this engine with E85 and tune...
Sigh...
More misleading hype designed to sell tuning software. This is idiotic. There is no way to "tune" a 2.5L CX-5 to go 260 km/h (161 mph), let alone more than that as the video shows. This is pure ignorance. Need I remind anyone that this is on a dyno which does not take into account the extreme amount of aerodynamic drag encountered at those speeds?
Are people really that gullible?
