    You don’t need a k-swap, the 3sgte is an under appreciated gem.

    300 - 400 HP is more than enough for the Mr2.
    I have the Gen3 Mr2 3sgte with 300hp and this is so much fun.
    You can go fast straight and into corners.
    The 3sgte is such a great engine.
    I love it 😊🤗

    Mad cars Sdub's. Yours is smicks as. I drove a GT turbo targa for many years, loved every second of it. IMO 3SGTE is an underrated engine. Dont see why PPL dont go 5S 2.2 3SGTE head hybird option over K swap, more than capable...but maybe thats just me... Word to the wise, you probabley already realise, but go easy on clutch's, they a real pain in the proverbial to change out! And when it does come time, throw something at it with a bit more girth, its not something you ever want to do anytime soon.

      They actually don't really Snap Oversteer, ya just gotta know how to drive mid mount cars - once mastered & it's not that hard to be honest - they'll astound you in their cornering ability. Plus very good to excellent grade tyres are an absolute requirement....

      I have owned one for some years now & i drift it in the dry but absolutely leave wet weather alone. You can't be scared of their handling - you have to master them through excellent driving skills & time behind the wheel....
      If your coming in to a corner & feel that you've "over cooked it", i.e. too much speed on board, you have to scrub it off very very quickly in a straight line before cornering...
      Mid mount cars are exceptional ONCE mastered. The only driver aids my MR2 has, is me. True purist driving at it's best....
