helped a friend install this intercooler kit and wired up a spal fan this sunday. pics of that plus some other shots........

looked like a nice kit at first, save for the cheap ass worm clamps. the clamps turned out to be too small and the intercooler pipes were an EXTREMELY tight fit.

another pain in the ass was that the screws they provided for the fan to bolt to the intercooler were flat head screws :)aigo:)

I am so glad I don't live up North.

Gotta love a 3SGTE powered MR2 though :)

Mr2= chick car :)


haha yes it is! the yellow one is my friend pauls car and the white one is my moms.

i make fun of him all the time.

me and him just pulled on the highway today and we were dead even.

hes running i think 15-20 pounds of boost and i think a ct-20b? whatever turbo the last model map based jdm mr2s came with...
