This might seem wrong to some but is the funniest thing ever to happen in Southern Arizona...
Ok there is my friend a real freaken idiot but he has money right and he also has the car hookups like no other (probably the only reason he is my friend) well he found a beat up camry i'm pretty sure it was a 92-94 model but since there was no front to it couldn't really tell, well here is what we did.
3rd generation Camry inline four/auto + 3SGTE head w/ awesome HKS turbo setup and intercooler zip tied to the front cross member. + doug's (friend) money + dyno = ....
...yes a whopping and incredible 300hp at the wheels, yes this is true now past this point there was fire, rumbling, gears flying, and three guys running for there life out into the desert in the middle of the night.
so after threehundred horsepower the poor old engine blew and the tranny pretty much blew up, you think no, but the car was at 280K miles on the odometer and that is freaking incredible we got it that high off that block
For my next adventure my car, till then aidios amigos and no es buenu senor

damn you! i wanted it! any salvagable parts? do you know what caused the fire? you didn't have adequate cooling. I also don't think a stock i4 auto tranny would be able to handle 300+ hp.
