Re: what is the cheapest insurance co. for mr2 turbo's?

I'd be happy with that as I have an ol postcode which isn't a good one according to insurance companies :roll: I'm paying about £700 now for the v6 and have got a supercharger going on plus tried to knock a lamp post over last year #-o So trying to see which will be my best option when I come to ren...

Re: v6 dynoed at 189bhp

about 10k for the supercharger, think it has to be a trd one. :shock: Once the v6 is in you can pick up an m62 or similar for between about £200-£400 and then have it custom fitted along with uprated injectors, standalone ecu and some form of cooling. I know this as I'm in the process of having it ...

Re: What's quicker, V6 mr2 or rev1 turbo??

but given a rev3 turbo complete with all the bolts mods for 300fly bhp can now be bought for about £2k why bother. Not everyone wants turbo power.. I think that is the answer you are looking for. You seem very anti V6.. I'm not sure why :? It's different strokes for different folks at the end of th...

Re: What's quicker, V6 mr2 or rev1 turbo??

At the moment v6’s using the current camary engines are no where compared to even stock turbos. “On the road” the turbo still has more horsepower and torque everywhere in the rev range from 2500rpm upwards (no one cares about performance below this as it’s never used unless you are in the wrong gea...

V6 as most rev1's & 2 when stock and put on the dyno struggle to make 200bhp. My own old rev2 when stock at a dyno day; fresh low mileage engine from Rogue, new dizzy & leads made only 210bhp. I know around the time it got a lot of discussion and the majority of rev1 & 2 cars dyno'd sto...

It's about 30kg lighter than the 3vz I think and it can be supercharged as there is a trd charger that was made for it. :D
