This will probably shock many. When I was 18 Marlin bought me my first Toyota...........
.......a 1987 MR2
I modified that car to the tilt for nearly 6 years strong and finally had to put it down in 2004.
I still have it and in fact I was just sitting in it YESTERDAY. It is up in Coarsegold right now just waiting for me to revive it.
As far as I know I was the first person in the U.S. to adapt a SC14 Supercharger to a 4A-GE engine. It put out just over 1.2 bar (17.5+ PSI), I just never had the $$$ to get it dyno tuned and I ran the engine into the ground.
I sure learned a Looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooot about engine building and tuning!
Good times
Some day I'll be enjoying those times again
