What engine are you on?

Just wanted to see how many engines you guys have gone thru. My buddy bought an 04 model and blew 2 engines before he traded in. First went out during the warranty period. Second engine barely made it 12,000 miles.

His only mods were a cat delete pipe and a Simota intake.

I'd like to think this isn't something Mazda has done wrong. Maybe something that can be blamed on either the servicing dealer or Mazda's choice of engine rebuilder.
