wow what are ur mods? that engine bay/trunk look freakin awesome

i too came from an mr2 turbo to Evo. honestly the mr2 is much more fun to drive (rwd + TURBO midengine)

here are some of mine:






this car looks like the F355 and i used to get a lot of looks driving around everywhere

i had hks intake, exhaust, fcd, ssqv and evc II @ 15 psi. it was fun as hell to drive (seriously). after i pay off my Evo and put bolt-ons on it i'm saving up for another mr2t again before i get any other car.

IN through the side vents and out the bottom of the trunk.
I now have twin 12" fans below the intercooler pulling air out.

THese pics are all of my OLD T78 setup. I will have new ones once my Tilton arrives

I have a Air to Liquid intercooler that I was going to put in my SC MR2. I'll sell it to anyone or trade is you're interested. The unit is pretty big, able to handle up to 500hp.
