Re: Project mr2

Funny how the engine from a mundane boring vehicle can become a great powerplant in the right setup!

True that... with this, I'd say having at least 250whp with nearly the same torque in a car that weights 2500-2700 lbs should be a nice starting point.

I plan on getting one off a tow package car. The only thing I'm still trying to figure out is the whole ECU/Wiring harness/Immobilizer shit.

I'd love to have this be as clean and simple as possible in the engine bay. It also will have AC, this would be be driven on the Mitsu Cruise next Spring!

One of my buddy is in the process of putting a 2gr in his mr2. He's going with the megasquirt to bypass the immobilizer. He's also running a mustang throttle body so he can use the stock gas pedal instead of the electric stuff. Otherwise some early 2gr came with no immobilizer ecu which will be hard to find. I believe Gouky just found a way to bypass ecu with immobilizer and change the rev limiter.
