Popular Post shiny Posted March 1, 2012 Popular Post Report Share Posted March 1, 2012 Hello Columbus Racing. I've been living in Columbus for a few years and know at least a couple people on this forum, so I figured I'd finally get around to joining. My daily driver is a 91 Toyota MR2. It has a 95 engine and transaxle, an upgraded turbo setup, AEM EMS standalone, Kaaz LSD, and the supporting mods. http://i1053.photobucket.com/albums/s471/shinydeluxe/img_0388s_crop.jpg http://i1053.photobucket.com/albums/s471/shinydeluxe/img_1175s.jpg http://i1053.photobucket.com/albums/s471/shinydeluxe/dyno_mar2011.png http://i1053.photobucket.com/albums/s471/shinydeluxe/aem_051111_snap1_crop.png Most recently it is having a V6 swapped in, probably(still figuring out details) w/ a 62-1 T4 F1-65 0.96 A/R turbo and an E85 tune. The car will continue to retain its stock exterior. I like any car that is entertaining to drive, regardless of who makes it or how much power it has. Looking forward to seeing some details about some of the other cool cars I see around Columbus. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RyM3rC Posted March 1, 2012 Report Share Posted March 1, 2012 Welcome, that some pretty decent power from that turbo 4. Good luck with your V6 swap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ImUrOBGYN Posted March 1, 2012 Report Share Posted March 1, 2012 Welcome to CR. Digging the MR2. What V6 are you throwing in there? I know the 2GR's from the RAV are pretty popular, now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shiny Posted March 1, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2012 Thanks for the welcome, everybody. The V6 is a 1MZFE without VVTI. It will be lighter than the 3SGTE it's replacing and yield better transient response at similar peak power levels. Indeed the 2GRFE is becoming a popular swap, as it offers more displacement and power than the 1MZFE on the stock ECU. On boost they should have similar power potential. I decided against it because it is a more complicated/expensive swap and would be more difficult to control with the AEM EMS. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
