Re: MR2 Videos
Except he is wrong on the stock boost levels the cars ran. Says the gen2 run 8psi stock. Where they actually should run 11 stock if everything is working correctly.

Re: MR2 Videos
US cars could have run 8psi. They were 200hp after all. Not 225hp like the JDM ones.

Re: MR2 Videos
Nah they still had T/VSV, their ecu is what lowered their output, they ran mega rich and could handle 15psi all day long, so long as the car was filled with their premium (93 or 94 R+M/2) and everything was up to spec.

Re: MR2 Videos
Yeah sure they had very similar setups to the JDM car with the addition of the EGR system but in stock form like you say the ECU held back boost. Yes you could make them run more boost and power but we are talking stock comparisons.

Re: MR2 Videos
Yes they still had an operational t/vsv though, which under ideal conditions gave ~11.8psi boost according to the US BGB.
The timing on the US ECU is super conservative in case someone fills it with 87 or beats on it every day in the Texas heat.

Re: MR2 Videos
What to consider looking at if i am boosting around 9 - 9.5 psi under full load?Alsw20 wrote:Except he is wrong on the stock boost levels the cars ran. Says the gen2 run 8psi stock. Where they actually should run 11 stock if everything is working correctly.

Re: MR2 Videos
I watch a youtube channel called Mayhem Inc, who are a group of young boys from gisborne, that work on their cars. Decided to watch one of their old videos of them drag racing their evo at hampton downs, With none other than Ross' green hornet as the opponent!

Re: MR2 Videos
Yeah. Not a very good result. As you can see I lost the change to second as the acutal shifter cables had jumped out of the mounting bracket. Easy fix but that EVO got away. That was when I was running a 3SGTE at about 21 PSI Boost.Jabeo wrote:I watch a youtube channel called Mayhem Inc, who are a group of young boys from gisborne, that work on their cars.

Re: MR2 Videos
Get connected to Jeremy Aponte channel. He helped me out with head gasket parts. Keen to hear more about his next V6 build. But his current V6 is worth checking out.
