Its called NYO4 and you'll find it on the internet cracked

@@threepotMR2 Thanks mate, never heard of it but will look it up.

In total the whole project cost me about £8000 and I would not do it again! Certainly would use a K swap instead.

I don't know, but with most ford based stuff the PATS key data is in the cluster. But honestly I don't know.

The car won't start.

I saw your channel pop up a few weeks ago with that red one with black bits! Turbo 1zz is the most fun I've had in years, goes really really well..... but.... my clutch can't take it, it was new less than 2000 miles ago, new exedy stock clutch. But even with 4psi it slips, and that's why this video series has stalled at part 4! I just need to pull my finger out and put the new savage clutch in it. Then I can crank up the boost because I think it will be nuts at 9-10 psi !!! I love it more than my 2ar-fxe MR2 which is in my track day videos.

@@threepotMR2 I run a ceramic 6 paddle sprung helix clutch.. that takes full abuse, 6Krpm launches, it's a great clutch. I need to do more research into the 2ar, i've seen it pop up a few times.. but i do fancy some boost At least a clutch change isnt a huge job

@@Pistolspete82 Forget 2AR, its not very good, and it cost me about £8500 in total to do! Its a solid 215hp flywheel NA, and its very very torqey, but you could K swap for half the money and get more performance. Literally can't be arsed to take the gearbox out of an MR2 again, done it half a dozen times in the last 2 years. Anyway I noticed some of your videos are at threesisters, are you a northerner?

@@threepotMR2 nope, I am just a sucker for driving around the country, I am as far south as you can go, basically France.. I considered a K swap, I had a civic R, but i still prefer the character of the 2ZZ, Ive got a spare with dead bottom end i keep meaning to rebuild, so i have a proper spare

@@Pistolspete82 My black MR2 had a 2zz in it before I swapped for the 2AR. Its slightly faster with the 2AR but not much. But this little 1zz turbo might be quicker than both even at like 5psi I joke you not! Its pretty serious when it comes on whoosh, and better still it makes all the right noises. Its great fun to drive on the road. Just need to pull my finger out and drop the gearbox, I've got a competion clutch S3 pressure plate and a kevlar disc here ready to go in. I miss the 2ZZ, it was good fun to hammer it on track, the 2AR is a bit less exciting even though its faster. I miss the revvy zing.

I got it CNC'd by PCBWAY... I have the cad file if you want it. But in all honesty just put a K-swap in your MR2 instead. These 2AR's are really lame.

I have ECUMaster Black on my other MR2 running 2AR-FXE, its very easy to use. If you have an ignition and VVT table from someone else, then it will pretty much autotune its own fuel table. The built in datalogging is fantastic, especially compared to the janky old Apexi PFC. But its really not rocket science, wideband tells you what you need to know.

I didnt found basemap for 1zz turbo, there is only for 2zz atmo ou 2zz supercharged

It an ecu black too ......and my another zzw30 have stock engine ( previously 2zz but i broke it on trackday, so i réinstalled 1zz)

@@threepotMR2 do you have Instagram or only youtube Chanel?

@@minkay3349 No Insta, just youtube. If you compare a 2zz to a 1zz base in Apexi Then roughly adjust the ignition and VVT table values to be the same difference in ECUMaster It'll get you 75% of the way there.

Part 6 I'll do a full breakdown of the exact costs of all the parts and where I got everything.

@@threepotMR2 nice one, appreciate that man 👍🏽

What did the stock actuator that it came with make boost wise ?

@@avalaugh1980 From memory when I tested it, I concluded it was a 1 bar actuator.

Its very easily done on that corner, even in the dry. Been on the grass there myself!🤣

And I'm sure I would be there before you even, nonetheless it was a good moment :)

Yes it sure can do boost control. Copilot seems to have more features but I just didn't get along with it, I like fc-edit as its quite bare bones. I bought the boost control harness and map sensor from yahoo auctions japan, and bought the solenoid on ebay. It was about £200 for all 3 together roughly.

@@threepotMR2 I'd like to learn how to make it work, I'll watch your video again

@@radstar2185 me to , i dont know , for me power fc couldnt deal with a boost controller

I'm not really clued up with github, I don't know how to create the project/gerbers/source code 🤣

I have just done it now... github.com/threepotMR2/BeanBangerMR2

@@threepotMR2 Awesome! You're the best!

I'm not sure the Apexi PFC can easily be converted to Speed Density config, unless you know something?

Yes correct.

Or you could just swap the whole eeprom chip from one to the other, that would work too.

I used gq-4x4 which has its own software. But any cheap eeprom reader will work like the EZP2019 or EZP2023

Here in the UK it cost about £7000 just in parts. It was a big waste of money, should have done a K swap.

@@threepotMR2 That's an insane amount of money. how much power did you reach? was it streetable?

@@gonzalodequesada1981 Just add up the LSD diff, the header, the engine+trans mount set, the shift linkage kit, air con pulley, thermostat housing from Frankenstein motor works webshop = $5252.83 inc shipping plus import duty. Then an engine, a gearbox, ECU, wiring, sensors etc etc! Yes the 2AR is totally street usable, its is very lazy fat power. Mine makes a solid 215hp flywheel and about 190hp at the wheels. 100% just do either 2ZZ, or a turbo if you want sub £2500 power, or do a K swap if you want more and willing to spend £4500. Wish you all the best

@@threepotMR2 I see, It's a pitty it was not worth it. I thought Frankenstein motors were claiming 230 to the wheels with a modified fxe. Anyways, keep up the good work I just subscribed because I found many of your videos useful and interesting

@@gonzalodequesada1981 He is, and I think its massively exaggerated. Say 10% trans losses.... 230hp wheels = is about 253hp flywheel. Its a 2494cc engine. That would equate to 101.5hp per litre. Any engine that gets 100hp to the litre always has to rev hard like bike engines, 2zz, K series etc. But the 2AR only peaks at 7200 etc. You'd need 8500rpm to get that magic 100hp per litre. Its all just USA dynojet BS. I'm happy to compare 1/4 mile times or 0-60 with him, but he won't bring that to the table, and I've asked about 10 times. Instead he just claims I'm down on power, but compared to other 2AR's I'm right up at the top, and my 1/4 mile time is the highest I've seen yet.

Maybe I'm overlooking something on the TTE coolant method, I dunno. But I've drove it in and out the garage and I can hear it spooling up! Can't wait to see how it goes now, and thanks for help too, much appreciated.

I’m also interested in the result of the turbo coolant routing that you’ve opted for- are you able to share any results of it working as intended? I’m currently the TTE route and if as you suppose it only opens with the heater active it’s crazy.

@@jlfvanzyl The route I'm running seems to work fine. I'm not 100% confident my criticism of the TTE route is totally correct but that's just the conclusion I came to. Have you got your charge cooled turbo Mr2 running?

@@threepotMR2 good to know! Yup, all running and mapped at RRR a couple of weekends ago. It’s slightly insane. Exceeded goals and only at 10psi (wastegate) charge cooling is definitely the way to go.

When you look at your logs, how much boost does yours peak at?

I wish I'd K swapped my other MR2 instead of the 2AR conversion, but at the same time if this makes 200hp and so far its cost £1665.88 in parts and material its very cost effective performance. I wonder if it'll be reliable though?

And I haven't forgot, once its all together I will do a run down of the exact costs and where I got all the bits for you 👍

Yes sure will, just bought some of the last bits like boost hose elbows and clips. Getting near the final tot up. Part 2 might be uploaded this weekend.

What forged pistons are you going for? I've been looking at the maxpeedingrods H beam rods.

Were you the MGF guy?

@@threepotMR2 yes mate

@@markcarolan2805 Its knocked my confidence a fair crashing it into the barrier last weekend at Aintree. Hope the MGF is still alive?

@threepotgtti oh no sad news hope it's OK and not to badly damaged. Yes MG is still around. We're back at Mallory park in a few weeks end of May. I got a new low mileage rebuilt vvc engine going in over winter aswell with a few more upgrades to go so yeah still going well.

Just trying to get too much power on to early I think. The slick tyres were cold too so there wasn't alot of grip.

@@threepotMR2 Thank you. I live few miles away from Aintree as well. Hopefully I’ll be able do some track days next year maybe. Cool videos, please keep uploading 🙏

@@threepotMR2 makes sense

Inside tyre spin I think. Presuming you don’t have a clutch type lsd

@@dc2plus Helical diff in this one. I'd say it was a mix of crap driving, poor tyre choice for short sessions, and someone had dumped a load of power steering fluid round there.

No such thing as Aintree car club for starters, I’ve never seen a serious incident on an Aintree track day yet and they fill up very quickly so won’t miss you! Maybe better at Oulton for twice the money and red flags every ten minutes.

I do think that metal armco retaining wall should have a tyre wall in front of it. Some old boy in a retirement group 4 single seater would come off alot worse that a kido like me in a tin box car.

this. Only crash I ever had was one where I'd spun and the other car was probably still close to 60 MPH. Spun me around completely. Nursed the car back to the pits, med checked us both out. Nothing to worry about. When I woke up the next morning it was as if nothing had happened.

​@@americanAlienBoy How you feel when you wake up the next day is the ultimate conclusion. In my experience, being fine after the crash doesn't mean you're going to be fine once you've slept.

This is true, and its on my list. Along with a halo seat. Still feel pretty stiff and achy 3 days later.

Got such respect for MR2 drivers who drive on the limit because really this can happen at any time and there’s zero weight on the front to correct it
