Although the mk1's have their followers, i'm afraid i'll always be a mk2 man.
Really did want to stick with toyota and that engine with a few mods and the motec stuck on it should be quick enough to keep me happy for now and can be mapped to give decent enough fuel economy too.

N f'ing A?
Edwards sort it out...get one fitted with 4e fte...turbo power. Tuneable pretty easily, many have over 300hp in the UK, I'm aiming for 300hp at the wheels on phase 2 of the project.
The record is 450ps in Japan by a company called HRF, topped out at 297.3kph. Get one right and on the track it'll deal with a lot of cars it shouldn't.

After speaking to a friend about his for his opinion on them, i've decided as i really can't afford to maintain a monster anymore, i'm going to get an EP91 toyota starlet and stick the motec on it. Going to go purely for handling this time rather than power. Should be a cheaper project for me until i win the lottery and build a maniac mr2.
Just got to wait for the insurance money to come and then project starlet begins.
