The 115bhp 1.6 was dropped by 1994 when Mazda introduced the 1.8 BP engine. AFAIK only the European market had a 1.6 offering (the 88/90bhp) from 1994 on. The BP engines are all 1.8, all the 1.6 Mazda B engines have the code B6.

It's lower CR will lend itself to charging, however, I believe things like the piston squirters were removed when the 90bhp unit was introduced, which makes them less suitable. The majority of charged 1.6s I know of are 90-93 based.
