The Little AW11 That Could.....could be TWINCHARGED!

David came to us with a challenging task: Twincharge his AW11 MR2 with the goal of reaching 350whp and build the broadest power curve out of a 1.6L 4AGZE...EVER. We're required to keep it sleeper as well. This project is still in the testing phases but we wanted to show you the progress it's been through since its inception.


It started with:
Stage 1 Engine Build, Supercharger Rebuild and Hondata Engine Management System Conversion
Stage 2 Full Polyurethane Suspension Upgrade, Custom Coilovers, Wheels and Swaybars
Stage 3 Custom Turbo Build
Stage 4 Twin Charge Conversion + PLX 12 Gauge Install...yes it logs 12 sensors in addition to the factory HONDA sensors.
Stage 5 Test and Tune - testing features of compounding boost, turning on/of the supercharger, running SC only, running turbo only, testing different turbo boost levels.
Stage 6 more final touches to come afterward...


The number of modifications on this car are too long to list. We'll have pics up in a few weeks. In the meantime, here's a quick and dirty video. We hope you enjoy and Stay Tuned with BlackTrax!
