A 707HP Toyota MR2 is a Hellcat’s Worst Nightmare

The Toyota MR2 is one of my favorite JDM cars ever made. Now becoming a K-Swap icon the MR2 is proving itself to be a great chassis to work with. However what happens when you build the factory engine to its full potential? Today we hop in this 707HP Toyota MR2 that has the power of a hellcat but the weight of a feather. So what's it like driving this monster on the street? Let's go for a drive and find out! Thanks for watching and new uploads every Tuesday,Thursday, and Saturday!

This is the the thing you build in Forza, but some people build them in real life.

imagine youre in your 300k dollar lamborghini and you get absolutely walked by an old mr2 lol

Mr2 still looks good for it's age. 90's and early 2000's euro/Japanese car styling is timeless.

700hp in a MR2, with no roll cage. I hope that man has already made his will.

Imagine pulling up to this on the highway and this little MR2 uses you as toilet paper

"I don't find anything interesting on the market"

That's cuz you have a Japanese Ferrari

Something about the MR2 was so far ahead of its time. It feels like a cyberpunk car of its era. And that actually sounds fucking insane

[tristenludewick]

and with that, my SW20 just went up in value again this year

[OKCStinger]

Man, this just makes me want to get an MR2 even more. Have been messing with an EG hatch but MR2's just have so much more style!

That's what I like to see, the correct engine from the car built and pushing that power, as much as the V6 and the K swaps are cool I love original tuned motors as it feels more honest to the car, and 707hp that's insane the car is light as hell too.

Yo David, since the last time you reviewed an MR2, I managed to get one of my own and I gotta say I'm loving it. I can't imagine what 700hp is like in one of these cars, let alone 300 (I have a '98 UK spec 170hp NA). I certainly cannot wait to start doing more mods, possibly a build with a 450hp goal, and you (amongst others) have influenced me to get one and I haven't looked back since. Keep up the good work, my man. I'm still hoping someone will let you review their ZZW30 ;)

I loved your video. It brought back so many memories. I had a 87 Mr2, which was pretty stock. A little intake and exhaust. I owned it for 15 years and it never broke. I ran the crap out of it all the time. It handled so great with the mid motor and all that. I actually gave it away to a friend that needed a car and I had a new truck and just got an old Mustang GT. I still miss it every day even tho now I own a Miata which I love but I don't have the history I have with the MR2. Again thanks for vid, it put a smile on my face.

These videos just make me cry... I once had a '91 MR2. My favorite car out of many great cars I've owned.

[garethwillis]

Seeing this MR2 actually surprised me. They've been around now for so long that when you do rarely see one, it's usually a little tired and a but underwhelming. That thing was super clean and the speed genuinely surprised me. I didn't know they could be made to go that quick. Really nice car, thanks.

I helped my son get one of these when he was in high school and he tells me he really regrets getting rid of it. It's still a hot little car.

[marctenaglio]

I own an SW20 Gen3, and she has 363HP/294TQ @ 19PSI. Plenty for me and really fun :) That car is just a dream that came true for me. When I was a kid, I've been playing Grand Turismo 1 and 2 with that car and now I own her since 6 years ! All 90s JDM cars are cool but SW20s have special place in my heart ❤🥰🔥

[dylansnellgrove]

Honestly man, I was skeptical of your channel thinking you were gonna be douchey like every other successful car based youtube channel but you're super wholesome, and make some pretty good content. Your account is a breath of fresh air for me personally. Keep it up man.!!!

Love that generation of MR2, reminds me of the blue car you reviewed at VMP a year or two ago.

[datgreekafroguy]

sw20 done right guys, 3sgte's have some real potential, i dont understand why some people k20 swap them. lovely car and i wish i own one someday!
