Drivers race, but the mr2 should have a slight advantage

I raced my friend with the CT20B at 10lbs and i easily walked him. I only have a test pipe.
But once he cranks that thing up to 20lbs which is what most MR2 owners have it up to, it's all over for me. He ran a 13.0 @ 110

i use to own 91 mr2 turbo with the ct20turbo and i know for a fact an Ap2 will walk on a stock mr2 turbo with just the ct20turbo with stock factory settings.

If he has the ct20B turbo then you'll lose but ehhh its also depends on the driver.

depends on his mods...if he upped his boost he's at an advantage. from a launch his car will hook better because his engine sits above his rear wheels (well, assuming he can drive), and from a roll he weighs around the same as an s2000 but his boost will give him more torque.

I think you could squeeze a train length.

2nd gen usdm mr2 turbos come with a ct26, the gen 3 jdm mr2 turbos come with a ct20b (not a ct20) and they are much faster than a ct26. ct20b will probably pull some lengths on you

Cool

My wifes coworker claims (90 Cadilac EL Dorado) "Will leave your 4cylinder in the dust"
I 'd litteraly when she told me.
Say I decided to play at the el dorados game and did a highway pull at any speed would this even be close? I know nothing about these old boats would it reallly have enough power to even run with me?

El Dorado= Completely stock, right down to the paper fitler...
My mods= Invidia70mmTP&70mmSingle MugenCFhardtop K&Nfilter Cusco32mmFrontSwaybar GuttedIntake SofttopDelete GuttedTrunk



*
Edit I tried google
My S2k Roughly - 250 bhp 2650lbs RWD
El Dorado . . . - . . .185bhp 3426lbs FWD

s2000 = 2.0 inline4.......lbs per HP = 10.6
eldorado=4.5 V8...........lbs per HP = 18.5
Lower the # ^ the better obviously
S2K... FTW
