Well, none of the 240SX's here came with SR20's so if he is telling the truth then somebody swapped in the SR20 into the 240. With 10,000 he probably will have close to 400hp or possibly even more. I don't know what you mean by "fully mod it out" because there are almost endless things you can do to an engine.

the engine in the top secret supra is not a lll gen mr2 engine it is out of a celica gt4 st205 they come with 245hp for 94-95 and 255 for 95-98 i thnk it has the 255 hp engine in it and those engines can go well over 700wrhp. they put it in the supra to make it an mr its considerd an mr because the engine is behind the front axles so it can handle better.

mr2 engines are basically the same as the celica all trac engines.

MR2 3SGTE(3rd Gen J-spec) vs. 240sx wit S13 SR20??

the mr2 will beat the 240.
even if the 240 had the same power, the mr2 will still beat it. the mr2 has its engine right in front of its rear axle, almost on top of it, more weight over the rear tires for better traction, so it takes off better, and it doesnt have a driveshaft, so less power loss.
