Depends what's done to it...Stock to very mildly modified = low 14's. They die uptop but are very good downlow on the stock turbo. They also get out of the hole nicely. But again, you don't really know what's done to the said MR 2.

suffice to say he'd have an extremely hard time getting that car to run low 13s. They're made to turn and nothing else.

My friend owns an early 90's MR2 that weighs about 2800# is RWD (stock they are rwd, jsut pointing it out, rear engine, rwd...) and he is putting out 300rwhp/265 tq on the dyno. My other friend puts out 260ish rwhp in his MR2 (early 90's) and the previous owner ran 12.9@??.??

The new ones??? joke

One of the Toyota tuners has one running low 11's with just a turbo.
