You did mention that, but being new to Toyota and new to MR2s, it might be tough for you to discern exactly what is really stock and what is not. A swapped smallport or 20V would still look like a stock Toyota engine (in other words it wouldn't be bristling with aftermarket parts) but would be much faster than a stock bigport 16V. We wanted to see what exactly you were working with to help identify it.
These cars are a bit heavier than their size suggests. My '85 has a sunroof, A/C power windows and locks, and it weighs 2400 pounds with a full tank of gas. This figure was obtained by weighing the car at a truck scale, not extrapolated from the sticker on the door, which is terribly inaccurate and probably useless.
