Mate that car should get 200rwkw no worries.

As far as i know it has a Blitz k1-380v in it which would be fantastic for track.

Thanks Surok, I have removed a large amount of deadner from the car including the underside of the chassis. I have a sharp chisel,good hammer and some earmuffs! Works well. The underside was easy but I have yet to do the wheel arches. You can help with plexiglass, seam and spot welding. Wiring is the biggest hurdle.

Drop a line to organise a day.

cheers

you may want to get some helpers with some experience to help.

otherwise youll spend all your time showing ppl what to do.

just my 2cents...

Im sorry but Im not up to speed with the blitz kl-380. What is it?
I has some nice gear on it which I will look closer at when its stopping and turning right.
Im adding a Apexi AVCR very soon which will help with the lag below 3200rpm. After 3200 it's mighty impressive.

It has 165psi on all four cylinders, no blow back, nicely tuned. Not sure on cams but will check it out at some stage.

just giving you a word of advice, ive had bad experiences with "help" and apprentices not that ive ever needed it. but it is hard to tell stupid ppl to f#ck off when theyre hindering even though their hearts in the right place.

The K1-380v is an aftermarket turbo. though spooling at 3200rpm that kinda sounds late for it. My old one used to start spooling at about 2k.

the blitz k1 is probably the best bolt on turbo for the mr2. dylan achieved 209kw and jason (mr2qik) made 220kw + from my memory. the only 2 i know that has had experience with the blitz k1. just google it and you'll find out some info or www.mr2oc.com hope this has helped

Thanks for the feedback dRu. I had a feeling you talking about the turbo. I will look into it.
It comes on very hard at 3200-3500 (1.4 bar) but would be spooling up before that.

I have been self employed for 13 years so Im ok with dealing with hired help and the likes.
If I was closer I would come and see you but its a tad to far..
Im heading to Phillip Island in Feb for a track day with friends. If there is a free spot your welcome to come along
