Hi fellas. I'm very stoked right now because I'll be picking up my 06 MR with 66k miles on the chasis, and 30k miles on AMS 2.3L stroker next week. All of the maintenance have been done either at Works, or at its local dealership. OEM turbo was rebuilt 500 miles ago by Works. Pretty much, this car is pretty damn good condition. Can't wait!

 

Awesome bro! How much did you pay for her? Pictures?

 

Huh. 2.3L stroker with an oem turbo? that thing must feel like NA

Edit: Forgot, welcome!!!

 

Nice! Update with pics as soon as you can!

 

jealous. Looking forward to some pics

 

Dang! Nicee! COnGRats!!

 

congrats! i love my MR so much i bought two. you may run into some problems with the stock turbo on the stroker. most stock-frame turbos need anti-surge housings on 2.1L+ engines. on the bright side, it will spool super fast LOL.

good luck and welcome.

 

what color is it?

 

OEM turbo and a 2.3L stroker?! You always going to be in boost is it still the 6 speed or does it have a 5 speed swap?!

 

Hi guys, thanks for the warm welcome! It's silver with black leatherette interior. Still has 6spd tranny with Works stage 2 clutch, AMS front mount. Yeah, it still has oem turbo, but that will change in due time. The current owner told me that the car has AMS fuel rail, and it already has either water or meth injection setup, but not hooked up. I did see a tank with some sort of white liquid in the trunk area. I'll need to investigate and find out. I'll get some pics up after I give the evo a needed bath and wax

 

Your gunna wanna look into a tranny setup if your gunna throw a large turbo on a 2.3

 

+1. Or you should have your tuner put a limit on the torque.

 

What kind of tranny setup is required for large turbo? Shep tran?

 

There is a guy on here running the 6 speed with a shep upgrade and it's holding fine however most people swap in a 5 speed from the gsr with either a shep or a buschur

 

A built 5 speed from Shep Trans, TRE, or Jacks Transmission should do the trick.
