History

This is my 1994 MR2 Turbo that I just had shipped in from New Jersey that was purchased from Rob Case in New Jersey. I first saw the car in person back in October 2004 when I finally visited Rob during a New Jersey trip for a Hot Import Nights event. I say finally because I have been talking to Rob about this MR2 for about 3 years prior to that trip. He had it for sale several times over the last 3 years and I was pretty familiar with the car at this point in time. Rob was the second owner of the car, and to date (April 10, 2005) it has less than 15,000 original miles. The body and interior of the car are in flawless, like new condition. This makes the third MR2 that I presently own, and it would have been four had I not sold my 1994 SMG Hardtop NA MR2 to Bryan Feldman, who I'm happy to say has a V6 swap planned for it. Rob is a very down-to-earth guy and I enjoyed meeting him finally and I especially enjoyed going for a ride and test drive in his immaculate MR2. In March 2005, I finally closed the deal on this MR2 and had it shipped to Atlanta very shortly after. I'm unsure yet what my plans for this INSANE MR2 or my others as I certainly do not need three of them at one time. For now I plan to keep everything as is while I contemplate what to do with this or the silver MR2.

As you can tell from the Gallery pictures, it has had some slight engine modifications. It is presently putting to the wheels; 469 horsepower @ 21 PSI and 357 horsepower @ 15 PSI. I drive the car at 15 PSI. It has not been tuned since the addition of the Ross Machine intake manifold, and I also plan to change the exhaust, so it will need some tuning touch up work. I have already contacted Matt, aka the Hitman to see when he will be returning to the USA, and I'm informed that he may have a possible trip coming up the summer of 2005. If there is anyone who can make this car/engine see it's potential, it's the Hitman. I had contracted the Hitman's services in the past, but unfortunately I was in process of parting out the MR2 I had at that time and was unable to make use of his tuning ability. My very good friend Jim Griffin was however, able to bring The Beast up to Atlanta for the session, and he was very impressed and happy with the results of Matt's work. There will be more to follow as I get time, and as always, you can find out more at http://www.mr2board.com.
