guy up here has a 700bhp (or around that) MR2 on drag radials etc.... that struggles to run 10's due to traction, bogging down etc.... it ran in the 9's in japan though.
Whats the spec to get 450bhp? What turbo, injectors, IC etc?
quite fancy an MR2 turbo, would be woried for my sexuality though

450bhp should see him running in the 12s all day though, maybe high 11's

Cossie is 4wd.
Dragons RX7 runs 700Bhp+ and he gets in low 10s . That car will not run mid 9s as it is.

I would not like 500bhp in a little rwd car, i would end up facing the other way. Cant even drive rwd properly on Granturismo

See this link

756WHP and a quarter of 10.752
450bhp at the flywheel would see 12's at best!

no one is having a go mate, just stating the facts... even with 550bhp 9secs is not going to happen. Will be more like 11seconds with a good driver...?

Yeah, thats the traction thing.
There is gonna be a nice point for the MR2 where power and traction is balanced for quarter mile runs, too much power and the wheels spin. If you notice though.......the power stated there is WHP, power at the wheels, you can usually add around 20% to that figure to get the power at the flywheel due to transmission loss. So that 515bhp will be nearer to 600bhp and that is still a long long way off a 9.5 second run!
Getting in the 9's is serious business!

I've seen some vids of that mad mad mr2 from Scotland, its immense!
Sorry but NO WAY it's getting to the 9's, even cars like Norris Designs Evo with more power and 4wd can't do it.
Wake up please!
