well, i really don't know what a stock mr2 turbo will do? supposely they do hit high 150's stock. i'd like to top my car out on the dyno to see what it'll do after a couple more mods.

that would be interseting but the dyno isnt realistic do too no air flow slowing it down

There's a silver MR2 I see all the time around VB. Has some silver rims, no spoiler, and a front body kit.

on the dyno that motor just didnt sound right. but i wrang the shit out of it to something like 350rwhp.
Sounds just like Mike. He likes to RE-tune cars, and has an unbelieveably accurate butt dyno, too. He's now apparently bought into SFP's BS, and has sent a large chunk of money (amazing, eh) down there, along with his car. His car is still sitting there, and has not run since.

This is what a Greddy T67 with proper camshaft alignment (degreeing the cams) and a free flowing intake manifold SHOULD do at 21 psi, and not pop a damn head gasket (belongs to a customer of mine):



This car is still terrorizing the local street racers in New Jersey. No head gasket problems. He got 28mpg on the drive back, too.
