Hi Aussiespyder. Just letting you and Joel know you have been missed on the last few events. I have been following your blog with interest and have succumbed to the lure of the spyder and bought a yellow one too. It's in brissy with my son but will be coming south when I finish his AWsc restoration. Hope to see you guys for the Bathurst run next month. Loved the chrome and black rims and white paint...the red looked great too.

Nothing to exciting happening with the spyder. Installed new trd bracing   did some brake work (joel changed rotors for me as ive never done brakes) but i changed front sway bar links  Then enjoyed a nice cruise   Then encountered a steep driveway   broke the mountings so got some bumper straps and while the bumper was off redid the headlights as they were going yellow and finally mounted c-one side vents

As a gift for my Birthday my spyder became Turbo! It's a Power Enterprise Turbo from Japan! Pretty much was plug and play except for rewiring O2 sensors, Oil return and colder spark plugs! I'm currently getting 4psi boost but will be adding a boost controller to give me its potential of 6psi, which I'm finding 4psi plenty anyways lol! She is running great! Took her for a run to homebush for the blacklist car meet!

Hey mate, I was at the Blacklist car meet on Saturday too.
I saw your car parked behind mine. It was good to see another MR2 at the meet. Nice work with your car :)

At 4-6psi, it likely won't really notice any benefit or change from it.
Anything higher and they seem to throw rods, regardless of the cooling, haha.

These kits never were setup for a intercooler, No point messing around with a intercooler, as essdub said won't make a difference when it's only a small boost! As time goes on see how it goes!
