Probably a total coincidence, but I see a lot of similarities.

Wait a second... I see a lot of similarities... Inspiration? Same car in the making? Wheels look pretty similar to me, I can see where this might be going. Then again, it could be a total coincidence.

Haha you caught me pre-edit, when I was still hopeful that it was the same car. I like those wheels a lot better in white, but that's a personal preference. In to see track days!

You will be better served with an upgraded heat exchanger for your OEM intercooler.

The MR2 guys love them for the boost response (read: no lag) and the cooling capabilities should be good for around 400hp if you pick the right heat exchanger.
