[pistol pete]

remembering i only paid 400 for the st......
had new tires and sorted fuel leak so about the same price....

but i want turbo then get meself cheap car for work and this as toy....

[marc GT Turbo]

it looks tidy and has a few goodies . 287 bhp not sure about that though pete ! exhaust decat and boost turned up !! big gains for very little. i would be wary about that figure. good luck anyhow m8

[craig]

Seems well looked after and cared for mate, plenty of mot and tax left on it too. What happened about the Border white one?

[craig]

yeah as Marc says, bhp seems a bit high, ask to see RR plots

[pistol pete]

he says he has the print outs.. but tbh i'm not owrried about power as long as it works.. he said the mapper beileved it may have cams but is unsure so he left it out...

straight swap for the mondy???

waiting to hear about the tires not gonna buy one that does..

like the white one a lot... just its a na and i really want a turbo and might cost a bit to much to change...

anyways craig your not online ... i am shocked!!!!

[pistol pete]

is the boost about right thought?? is it a safe boost??

here is the email he sent about the mods...

It has full jap speed exhaust 3 inch all way with 3 inch decat down pipe, kn induction, mbc and fuel cut defender tvsv disabled, mapped at bd engineering and set to 15psi has had a rekon ct26 did have a aftermarket ic but removed recently due to hole. That made 280bhp with printout. May have cams to as told by mapper at bd enginering.

[pistol pete]

so its prob less not the ic has been removed...

hmmm do i want to give up my nice reliable safe mondy...

[craig]

Online on here or ripping it up on cod? Was on for a couple of hours earlier, 3rd prestige now rank 27.
By the way mate, you'll need these:

If you only paid 400 notes for the mondy, can't really fault it.

15 psi is on the limit for rev 1/2 . if it has a steel headgasket then ok i guess considering its got a recon turbo . i presume its not cerramic internals anymore ?

Boost on a CT26 should be max 15psi with a boost controller, but I'd have uprated the cooling to run that boost on the turbo

[pistol pete]

indeed i would.. or just a border front bumper
its a toy for in the garage so things will be done slowly....
i was looking at a mk3 supra cos the extra seats i really like them.. but just it would end up being an auto... and i not sure i could have one after having a mk4...

plus out of 10 mr2's i have owned only 1 turbo......
hmmmm

[craig]

Go for an MR2 matey, you know it makes sense

[pistol pete]

i know i know iknow i love em and know em..

just always worried about buying a dog of a car....
but it is a toy to work on..... hmmmmmmmm

i would have to find something to use for work that i like as
i was going keep the mondy and get a toy.. but think its a bit silly having a 2.5 v6 for every day as its a bit wastefull of petrol that could go in my toy............
and unfair for the missis

how would you uprate the cooling??

maybee worth turning down the boost if i got it....

[Rahzel]

That looks slammed lol. i'd hope he uprated the shocks running those springs. Its also still on the 14's

Uprate cooling via methods of side mount intercooler or ST205 Charge cooler etc
