what should i watch out for?
|
All the general things. Most of the Ttops will leak in there life time, and the turbos dont like to be boosted much over stock. Seeing as they have a cremanic shaft and start to destroy themselves over time.

what are the common problems in a MR2?
|
listed above

is there any heating problems?
|
I have never heard of over heating problems in that model MR2. The older 80ties ones started to rust around the radiator pipes and can cause problems.

what boost should it be running?
|
I think the stock boost is around 11-13psi. Im not 100% sure, but it shouldnt be to high with a stock turbo.

ive noticed most mr2's have 2 exhausts, where this has one... is there any downfalls of having one?
|
None, doesnt make a difference, as long as its a well desgined and built unit, it shouldnt give you any troubles.

|
Ive heard that the cam belt can be quite hard to change for first timers.

what power figures do these have?
|
242hp @ 6000rpm and 223ft-lbs @ 4000rpm. I also think the Turbo Gen2 MR2s came with stock LSD's, not 100% sure tho

if it is the jdm engine what is the engine model?
|
All the turbo MR2's came with 3SGTE's. There is just different versons over different years.
