The older MR2 (90-2001) had a 2.0ltr 16v with 168 BHp unless it was a JAP spec turbo which runs about 225. There was also a De-spoilered 119 Bhp version. As for the original 80's version, Im not sure.

	Blyndsteine B+ head and cams, depending on how wild they are would give u an extra 20-25 bhp with ur other mods i would defo get a uni chip to get it all mapped and working at its best so with magnex, manzal power box with K&N, Blyndsteine B+ head, cams, unichip = 150bhp+ easy tourqe im not sure, but NOS is grate for upping tourqe levels, thats why it so powerful

	Luca2020 If i got them mods done what BHP do you think i will have and what touqe figures without nos

	mr2's are 2.0 16v's and have 170+ bhp wot year mr2 was it?
Greasemonkey	posted on 13th Aug 03 at 22:49
	they only got 138bhp ish i only got about 10 maybe 8 less thought i might have a chance it was close top speed of a GSI is 121mph MR2 is 130mph thats where he did me its might be the gearbox

	wot made u think that u cud beat an mr2 in a 1.6 16v corsa???

	The latest must have motor round my way is either an MR2 or CRX, I got hassled by a bloke in an MR2 and thought sod it and put me foot down we were neck and neck till about 115mph then he over took not rapid though, what can i do to make my car beat these, I aint racing no CRX if i am gonna get whooped. I got a GSI with Magnex system, K & N and a mantzel power box its got the early C16XE engine. Its been lowered 40mm and is on 17's if that makes a difference The MR2 looked standard which is worse This is what i been thinking 1. NOS 2. 2 litre C20XE 3. 2 litre C20LET dont really want to change my engine though I dont make a habit of racing people but if it ever happens i wanna have half a chance, come on you all do it;)
