Toyota MR2 GTS '97
The 2nd Generation MR2 released in 1989, also known as the SW20, was the successor to Japan's first mass -produced midship, the AW11. Despite it's image, the AW11 was never labeled by Toyota as a sportscar. However they declared that this 2nd generation MR2 was a true high-performance sports model.
The size of the SW20 was enlarged to the limit of Japan's size 5 classification, and though it's smooth styling was very different from the first MR2, it expressed its midship layout well. The power unit behind the driver was upgraded from the 1.6 L 4A-G to a 2.0 L 3S-G, and the power output was 162 BHP for the NA version and 221 BHP for the turbo. Initially however, this power worked against itself. The handling was trickier than the AW11, and resulted in a revision of the chassis in December 1991, in the model II.
In 1994, the model III debuted with an even stronger turbo engine producing 241 BHP and 31 kgfm torque. The chassis suspension geometry, springs, dampers, and brakes were also revised.
Furthermore, in June 1996, the model IV was released. The MT model of the G grade adopted a helical LSD, and sports ABS became standard on all models. In December 1997, the V model was born with even more improvements. The VVT-i (continuous variable valve timing) as added to the NA engine at this time, enhancing it's output to 197 BHP and 21.0kgfm torque.
Through it's evolution, the chassis was matured greatly and the over-sensitive handling characteristics experienced in the early years faded away. Out of the series, the normally aspirated version of the final model V is probably the best model out of the SW20, with an excellent balance between power and chassis.
The Toyota MR2 is a RWD MR (mid-engine mounted rear wheel drive) high-performance sports car which produced 242 BHP as standard. On GT6 with full racing parts and modification upgrades it produces 484 BHP at 7,000 rpm and 50,9 kgfm torque at 6,500 rpm. It weighs only 1,039 Kg. On GT5 this car had 444 BHP and weighed a little more yet it ran the 1/4 mile in mid 10:6xx's. It will no doubt be much faster now with 40 BHP extra and less weight.
This tune is experimental flip for people to try out and run. I tried a lower GT5 tune on this car but it traps 132 mph. 10:6xx's. I do not know if this is good or bad yet as i haven't run any other tunes. Please run it vs other MR2 GTS tunes and compare vs this. The tune will be updated according to its base tune performance. I thought the original GT5 tune might be too low a flip to use. This does seem to pull more speed at the shadow.
However, it isn't always the case that higher trap speed high flip tune will result in a faster tune if it doesn't get there as fast a lower flip faster accelerating slower trap speed tune as a lower flip may well be faster accelerating in the low to mid-range pull.
*Please remember to install ALL racing parts, change oil, and do engine overhaul before proceeding any further with the setup. Also please remember these are not nitrous tunes.

Aerokits (Aerokits do have a little aerodynamic effect but not as much as flat floors. Aerokits may help the car launch a little harder in the low to midrange but will lose pull at mid to higher range top speeds)
None installed (Dependant on tune)
not recommended for this tune
Flat Floors (Flat Floors create huge amounts of downforce and WILL slow you car down significantly and you will definately notice loss of acceleration at mid to high ranges and lose top speed
None installed (Not recommended on any tune)

Shift Directions. The car holds revs on launch in 1st gear around 7,000 rpm. Once the revs raise from 7,000 rpm shift into 2nd around 7,000 or a little over 7,000 in gears 2,3,4,5,6. You should trap 134 mph at the shadow and 135 mph just passing. I took some pictures you can see below for proof of trap speeds this tune produces. Also see my video for shift directions too below the pictures.
Please like this tune if you have tried it and comment. Thanks again and Enjoy! 
), which doesn't help it's cause.
, jk... Sup guys it's been a while I stop by either here or online I see that things haven't change at all, in fact it seems they got worse by what I was reading in some of the team threads but hey whatever!
