all 3mz's, i believe, have dual throttle body setups. Secondly, how are you planning on putting a big ass V6 into your mr2. Secondly, if you're looking to do a V6 setup, go with a 3vz. You can't even tune the 3mz nor the 1mz that much because the internals aren't strong enough to support too much power.

You won't need that much power with a V6 in a car as small as a Deuce.

^^ hunt around google, I know the 1mz swap has been done before, not sure about the 3's tho.

It fits there just fine and i want NA power. heres a thread of a vvti 1mz in the bay and i already know it will fit. Also you can never have TOO MUCH power

From what i've researched Twin TB only exist on vvti 1mz's like on a rx300, es300, avalon, highlander then they switched back to a single TB for the drive by wire, not sure what year but im guessing +03.

dual intakes exist for those 1mz (and beyond) that were mated w/ the 5speedauto trannies. Those 1mzfe's mated with the 4speedauto trannies were using the single tb's if i recall correctly! In other words vvti 1mz only came with 5spauto trannies. non vvti 1mzs came with 4spauto/5speed m/t's. I recall a few people have mated their non vvti 1mz w/ their mr2's (never known anyone who mated vvti 1mz..but its been a few years since celica.net closed down and stopped learning celica/mr2 stuff).

what part exactly do you want to see that fits? that the intake plenum fits physically? it should, 3vz and 1mz's have been going into mr2's for ages now...theres also even a 5vz (HUUUGE) in one ... with 2 turbos
