Go the 2,000L engine muhuhahahhahhahahaha that'd fly. 
They also state the donor car is not an import yet make no mention of it having an engine conversion so how can it be a turbo.

Still looks sexy though.

if memory serves me correct there where aust. delivered turbo models yeah?
if not, it's not that hard to bolt a turbo onto the standard engine. you don't need to do an engine conversion to make it turbo.
I've spoken to Craig and he's a top bloke. best of luck with his sale, if i had the spare $'s at the moment, i'd buy it.

Yes but considering they go in depth about the kit, if it had been converted to turbo you think details of what was done ie to lower compression etc. There was no aus delivered turbo MR2's, so its either had it bolted on or been converted and if so why not list the details about what was done in the process.
Otherwise its an import an he's talking shit.

i hate it . its fucking fake piece of bodykits. i rather classic mr2 look. if u want a ferrari, buy a real ferrari!! would u buy a old bombadore with latest hsv bodykits on it. u would make a big fool of urself driving in it i've seen some ....wankers.
aussie delivered never comes in turbo. only japanese inports delivered turbos and n/a.
u cant bolt turbo on non turbo mr2. engine 3sge is not suitable for it. u have to complete the whole conversions including gearbox and bigger front brakes setup and rears if u like but not nessasary.

and wouldn't cost as much to service, whilst it does look better than most kits i am of the same ilk as lambolica it ain't the real thing so why bother i mean for the money spent on the kits, the mr2 could be as fast as the ferrari.

The front is pretty good, but the back is well and truly wack, also the mr2 is a tad shorter and a chunk narrower than the 355 meaning the bonnet and other proportions are always gonna be out of wack.
If i could be bothered i search for a pick of a 355 and pick the differences, i've done it befor with that kit and there is some areas where it is spot on but there are many errors that when you look closely make it look shit compared to the real deal.

the site mentioned where the kits are sold annoys me, where it compares it's kit to every other f355 kit out there. It keeps looking down on every other kit and has pictures to "prove" how unauthentic they are. I know the site should be promoting it's product but does it really need to put every other kit down!!
