just got done man handling a mr2 spider. just wondering what is the horsepower rating on those things.

 

i believe about 137

 

lol sorry that wasnt a real accomplishment then. lol

 

you talkin an old one or new one? im guessing new cause of the spyder comment but still

 

i looked like maybe an 03 or 02

 

haha well it explains how he didnt pose a big challange, but at least maybe he has more respect for the balt

which model cobalt do you drive?

 

07 ss/sc with just the gm stage 2 injectors.

 

just stage 2 injectors and stock pulley? no tune?

 

not much hp, but they're also very, very light.

 

if it was, it was all done at the gm place i got them to cut me a deal with just the injectors, did it all for 400.00.

 

yeah, those mr2s only weigh about 2000 pounds or so. kinda like having a less powerful lotus elise. go figure they both use toyota engines.

 

Sounds like a stage 1 kit.

Injectors and a tune.

 

ok, thanks.

 

so you can rev to 7k, right?

 

yea sure can

 

stage 1 balt it is! have you went to the track yet, i havnt seen any stage 1 1/4 mile times, and am curious

 

Stage 2 injectors is called Stage 1... yeah.

The newer model MR2s are a joke... kinda like the Miata... nice car... comfortable little convertible... but no power.

 

naw havent been to the track yet. round here tuner night is on thursdays and im always at work on thursdays.

 

dump a 5.0 HO motor in that miata and watch that bad boy eat everything on the road alive !

 

2nd gen MR2 with like a ct20 turbo and a few bolt ons can be pretty damn quick.

 

just incase no one posted the specs....

2000-2005 toyota mr2 spyder
curb weight : 2195
engine : DOHC 1.8 liter
hp : 138
tq : 125

In 2000-01, all MR2 Spyders had the same powertrain: a dual-overhead-cam, 1.8-liter four-cylinder engine working with a five-speed manual transmission. A 5-speed sequential manual gearbox became available for 2002 and was upgraded to 6-speeds in '03.
