Muffleman Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 We're seeing more and more Starlets for mapping, but today I mapped one that made.....ready for it ? 438fwhp Not bad for a 1.5 Apparently the UKs most powerful. Cracking little motors Toyota really did make some good engines, the 3SGTE is a great engine, we all know how good the 2JZ is, the black and silvertop 4AGEs on ITBs etc and these little Starlets make damn good power for what they are. Plenty of other good motors came out of the Toyota stable too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbloodyturbo Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 I have been suprised by them a couple of times, one gave me cause for concern right up to 60 when joining a dual carriageway last week, very nippy allthough they all seem to be covered in stickers!

tooquicktostop Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 Blimey that must torque steer like mad, must be an interesting drive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2JG Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 That is impressive! My friend had a 350bhp turbocharged VR6 golf and he said that was a nightmare in 1st gear, he just used 2nd gear to pull off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muffleman Posted May 5, 2009 Author Share Posted May 5, 2009 Blimey that must torque steer like mad, must be an interesting drive You're not wrong mate, mapped one last week to 235bhp and I drove that one after - even that torque steered like mad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Garfy Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 Hi Mat, do you remember looking at my MX5 bbr turbo a few months back? you were going to look into being able to modify the ecu? well, I've managed to get hold of a greddy emanage blue that I will be fitting to it soon, would you be interesting in maping it for me? and if so, what sort of cost would I be looking at?

Havard Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 I remember SteD having a go with one in his NA and having his arse handed to him...... Great power but I imagine it would be like being strapped to a rocket..... H. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
