Considered carefully my cam choice and went for the rev3 inlet and rev2 outlet. I have a few mates running bigger turbo's, such as the 3076 or 35r's. They have run 272 cams but found these to be extremely difficult to set up. They then went back to stock heads and made more power! My cams will promo...

Cheers

450 os the estimate. This turbo has been making over 500 on the same spec builds as mine, but that is at 2.0bar! At 1.6bar which is what I aim to run it should be making around the 450mark, but ideally I want over 400ft/lb's and would sett;e for 400/400

Thanks, Its taken about 3 years to get it this far and it has been off the road for 14months now for the engine rebuild! Mind you I have done a lot more in the meantime. It's handy being on a mixed forum now as I need to ask for some advice on a couple of things, am on the MR2 forum, but its hard to...

MR2 Owner

Hi All,

My mate Boucherie introduced me to the club. Haven't had a chance to look round yet, but hear you guys get down Snetterton quite a bit so hope to see you down there soon.

I drive a TRD kitted MR2, currently finishing the install of the new motor, looking at around 450+bhp
