the turbo'd cars were mid 14's stock, shouldn't be any trouble for a 99+ GT

 

dunno, some guys. But wannabeVobra said a lightly modified MR2 went 11's. That Id have to see.

 

Theres a mildly modified one here in el paso about 10000 has been spent on it... 15000 inculding car... thing make 502 rwhp and i think 450ish torque... with a very crappy driver it ran an 11.5... its owned by a female and everyone says the thing can run 10's if driven by a good driver... awesome car...

 

I like how you use the words "mildly modified" and "spent $10k on it" in the same sentence.

 

well if u take into account how much parts are for those cars thats very mild... turbo kits range from 4-8k an aem ems is about 2k and all the little odds and ends adds up u know... and thats nothing really... for what some pay for a used gt she got her car into the 11's or 10's with a better driver...

Edit: this was on stock internals....

14.7 from the factory


I wouldn't call 2850-2950 lbs "light as hell" in a 2-seater.


Although there are turbo kits out there that are that expensive, mine was just about $2000.

My 11.1 was done on a 200,000 mile original stock engine (cams were dropped in).
The car went 11.7 with a 100% stock original 200K engine though.


My car weighs about 2840 lbs with me in it. I'm about 170 lbs.
That is far from a typical MR2. I have done a LOT of weight reduction.
