Using two trans would suck so much power.

I've got to be his best friend!:evil2:

But your not the "pole-smoking hoser" but maybe that's why you can be the "best" friend

..... yeah, the bussa is rated at 186hp, so why is it so down on power with 4psi boost?

crank hp is very different than whp, especially when you are using two transmissions.

^ good question i thought the same thing. but the mr2 does sound wicked

Ok...............I found the build pics on line......NICE work!! He ruined the car tranny and is replacing it........

If I had the money mine would be invested in a snowmobile engine swap. My brother in law showed me a book that has built motors in it.....I saw one with like 350hp and over 300 torque. I think given the Harley swap it would be really easy to set a snowmobile motor in our cars.

For the price of a 'Busa motor, plus turboing it...not that impressive. Cool project though!! Sounds wicked too! I thought a 'Busa was close to 200hp stock? I have a '95 CBR1000F motor in the garage and it was rated 135hp way back then with carbs.......

200whp. that isnt bad in a 2400lb car.

It is when a stock turbo 3SGTE makes 230 with near matching torque.

200whp. that isnt bad in a 2400lb car.

It isn't great either, considering the simplicity(in comparison to the swap) of just turboing the stock motor is it? Seems like an interesting exercise of their skill, though.

it made 142whp and about the same torque at 4psi before it ran out of fuel. retuned with a walboro at 10psi they are expecting 200whp. that isnt bad in a 2400lb car.

the 1300cc gsxr motor weighs 175lbs, the 3sgte weighs 350.

and it uses both transmissions... giving it a possible 30 different gear combos! lol

Lol, I use to own a first generation MR2. I love Toyotas.

But we both love Festivas, and thus all is well! :p hahaha
