New MR2 turbo - few questions

Post by ste_brough »

Hi all, picked up a turbo yesterday and got a few questions.

First is does anyone know what this does?

Second is has anyone heard of Desmond Regamaster evo alloys?

AFC. Old school one at that. Intercepts ecu signal and fools it to remove or inject more fuel. Only problem with the MR2 turbo ecu along with removing fuel is it adds timing...

Desmond Regamaster EVO wheels are really nice. Rota make copies of them and call them the Slipstream. Should have Made in Russia on the back of the rim if they are genuine.

The Desmond's are pretty rare and epic wheels. You'll be wanting to keep those for sure! :thumleft:

Do the centre caps have "marquis promoda" on them?

As above, they'll have made in Russia on the back of the wheel if genuine.
