(i didnt pay that price)

but anyways i would like it if you guys can tell me info about my car, hp, boost, how supercharger works, how to car for the car w/suypercharger, cool mods etc.

Im so excited!!! its really fast, so much faster than my 89 corolla sr5

wow........ that thing is probably worth almost double what the ebay price was shown there..... that thing looks to be in immaculate condition..... it's super rare to see an mk1 with a front trunk with all the trim still......

yea, i was impressed when i saw it, theres a lot of door dings, like 10 on the passenger sides. the driver side mirror isnt intact. some parts of the paint got sundried but other than that its great!

im so impressed about the speed

yeah baby! 4AGZE!!

forget about the MR2 guys.. ask the Corolla guys about the motor.

1st thing I do to it though.. invest in a manual swap... or a AE101 automatic GZE transmission.

geez, some punctuation might help someone who is trying to comprehend. well, 3.5" rear speakers and 4" shallow fronts. i have no idea what else you are really trying to say. i would say read and search on MR2OC for your more specific questions. as for other stuff, you will find most people have theor own opinions as to what works and what does not. seriously, a MAJOR tune-up/maintenance would be best served. you'll want to address those issues before proceeding as it is an older car now and things like hoses deteriorate and can cause a general lack of fun if they rot. suspension should be next as well as brakes and tires.
