Hi ..

I was thinken if it would be possible to get a twin turbo kit for a MR2 1989-1998 (gen 2) because i am thinken 'bout buying an MR2 Gen 2 !

as far as i know of, there are only 2 MR2 in existence that has custom Twin Turbo. Both of them reside in the US. I could be wrong. Go to www.board.mr2faq.com and search for the "twin turbo mr2"

I think you came upon one of them or it's because most people who are not too familiar with MR2s always think that it's twin turbo coz of the "Twin Entry Turbo" logo on top of the intake manifold.

if it was from a private seller it must be, but most non-toyota dealers think that mr2s come with twinturbo, (coz of the logo "twin entry turbo" on the intake manifold) .

Re: MR2 Twin Turbo ??

there is a guy here in FL with a twin Turbo set up but his total lbs of boost is at like 14psi
Not worth all the effort
You need a motor that can push out like 600+hp to have that worth while
small turbo for Low end and the bigger turbo to handle the rest of the power top end.
Its just a 4cyl not a V6 or V8
money, weight wasted, plus it would add extra heat which you dont want either.
