DavidV of " Car Hacks and Mods for Dummies Book fame " , said he can blow away any and all evos with his latest mods on his planned project.

What do you think?

I like the fact that it still says "turbo" on the back.

So if WORKS offers this 3,40000,00000 package, will it pass CA emissions? Will they offer a conservative tune? What will it put down on the DynoDynamics? At least 200whp?

And some Endless 24 pot brake calipers!

Does that MR2 have to be registered with the DOT or FAA?

My guess is that it puts down 0 hp at the wheels.

Holy S#!^

You've got to be kidding me! More Pics!

A few questions, assuming that's for real of course.

What engine model/maker?

Is the original engine still there as well?

How far from done is it?

(I'd almost think that much thrust would blow whatever's behind you off the road ... or at least roast them with the afterburners :P)

-S ...

Does that MR2 happen to use a K&N drop in air element? You gotta back the brand, David.

I'm pretty sure it's done. To see the whole series of pics (there are many more), just click properties on one of the photos and enter in the numbers to see more pics)
