Sun Jan 14 07:55:21 201 Monica (rfx-216-203-68-53.users.reflexcom.com) Hello fellow MR-2 worshippers! This is a great website for the MR2 enthusiast. I bought a silver 2000 Spyder and it was worth every penny. My 1987 MR2 MKI was a dream to drive, but the Spyder amazes me every time I get behind the wheel. Take one out for a test drive and you'll drive it home, so be careful :) Looking for an IMOC in my Sacramento area. Not a day goes by when other drivers on the roads aren't staring and pointing and trying to catch up for a better look. Most people ask me how much I paid for my Boxster, and are surprised to know it's the new MR2! Check out isthistoyota.com/mr2club for photos, demos, and more. Later!

I just have one question and I would appreciate it if you guys give me some answers. I own a 1988 n/a MR2 and I am just wondering what are some other things I could do to make it faster? I don't have a lot of budget coz I am still in high school. One guy asked me if I wanted to run it on nos, he said just drill a hole in the intake pipe then connect it with the nos kit and boom you're done, is this true? I already have an exhaust/muffler and an intake/air filter in it. So please guys give me some advice, thanks people:)
