Ah, the MR-2... like a Lotus Elise, only a ton slower. The concept is great, but unless it's a Lotus, mid-engined cars should have 8+ cylinders and go 0-60 in 3.x from the factory.

If it's a Lotus, I'll make an exception as long as one shows up in my garage tomorrow

...yeah, you might lose. I speak as a Fiero owner. You want a car that can corner? Get one that has a mid-engine and is rwd. Unless you are talking about the newer MR2's. Those things are like fat ladies crammed into leather pants. They may look sleek, but they are still way heavy.

Is that a turbod 6? I haven't seen that one before. I know there is a stage 2 turbo kit for the old 2.8's that would get it up to about 200hp and take only 6 ticks to get 0-60, but I thought that was it. BTW, thanks for the links. I'm going to save them.

that is a fiero with a Grand Prix GTP motor converted to turbo instead of supercharged. He would have broke 10's that day had he got traction. That was just a few weeks ago too.

I thought about the possibilty of a 3800 in there, but dismissed it because of the lack of a supercharger. I failed to recognize the modding that could have been done. I love Fieros because of their lack of weight. And they are really roomy compared to cars like the S2000, Crossfire, Solstice (ironic because the Sol has the same organization on the interior as the Fiero).
