Well, our 1320engineering MR2(yea, we have an Mr2 on the team too), blew its intake weld on the inlet ports two days ago. I just got off the phone with my buddy AKA the owner, and he has already started pulling the motor apart, but we are not gonna have the car for sunday. At our local track, we're having the VA Import Internationals 1/8th mile competition and we were hoping to campaign the MR2 there...but not now! Oh well. At least now we can pull the motor and build it up how we want. We're doing a NOS fed Twin turbo setup on the 5SFE block...it could get interesing

It's a '91 Ttop...I'll take some pics tom when I go help him work on it. I've got some here but they are over a year old from when he first bought the car...

..here's one from our last race last July....

Nice car! I am such a big fan of the MKII MR2 turbos.

Well, it doesn't look as nice now, lol. He wrecked it about 5 months ago..no real dents any more, but it still has a big scrape on the driver side rear...we're fixing that when he gets the body kit and paint, which is after motor work. I'll take some pics of it tomorrow and post them in the "OTHER CARS" forum for ya...it is a really sweet car nonetheless and has since been lowered too...everything else is stock in appearance. I love cars that have stock looks but pack a big punch Looks before performance...your car should always be as fast as it looks!

My car looks pretty slow, if you see it from behind. I have 2.5" mild steel exhaust tips. h34r:
