[Mk2] [Turbo] Great example of an MR2 interior
It's time for my Ferrari replica MR2 Turbo to have an interior makeover.
Does anyone have an example of what good looks like and what can be done?

[Mk2] [Turbo] N/A wheel arch in a Turbo?
Due to a garage not refitting my wheel arch liner correctly and it destroying itself on the motorway, I need a replacement.

I've found one on eBay, but they say they don't fit the turbo.
Is that true, or is it a mistake?

UPDATE!
So on the advice of this forum I took my MR2 Turbo Ferrari replica to Mr Twos. The guy there was a legend and fixed the overboosting quickly. Unfortunately he also discovered an exhaust leak that due to the bodykit was impossible to fix without dropping the engine. He couldn't do it because he didn'...

[Mk2] [Turbo] Fit Rev5 NA UK Clocks into my Rev2 Turbo
Having taken the hint to fit a boost gauge, I have seen a set of clocks on eBay item number:281672212271 However they are for a Rev5 NA. Can I fit these to my Rev2 Turbo? The goal would be to work on them off the car, fit an aftermarket boost gauge in place of the voltmeter then just swap them over....

UPDATE - and a question
So I took the car back to the garage that did the work today and they have given me the great news that there is a leak from the Exhaust manifold and the issues have nothing to do with them removing the manual boost controller. I have booked the car in at www.mrtwos.co.uk as recommended. I have a co...

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Rev 2 Turbo from overboosting to ruined
If your running stock actuator pressure your boost gauge should show 5-7psi on boost, any more than that is creep. When running boost control if you set it to eg. 14psi , the car comes on boost it holds at 14 for a bit but then boost starts to clime , thats boost creep. Pretty much all my turbos cr...

Sorry to be a noob, but what is boost creep and how do I tell if I have it?

[Mk2] [Turbo] Rev 2 Turbo from overboosting to ruined
My Rev 2 Turbo Ferrari replica went into the garage with a few issues and although some are solved, I have a whole new range of issues. All my handling woes have been resolved (transformed) by fitting BC Racing Coilovers and new tyres all round. It's gone from being the worst handling cars I've ever...

My Mk2 Turbo Rev2 Ferrari 360 Modena Replica
Hi All, New to the site, and MR2s in general. I used to have a tuned Nissan 300ZX Twin Turbo so am used to quick cars. I thought this would be an interesting project. It's a work in progress so I hope through you guys I can get the last few details sorted. Anyway, my car is a 1992 Toyota MK2 Turbo R...
