Title: How do I know what kind of CV shafts to get?
Post by: wevuw on January 26, 2023, 03:30
I got an MR2 that was 2.2L NA, but is turbo swapped, with an E153 TM. The thing is missing CV shafts, I need to get them. Now I don't know if the car is already modified to work with turbo CV shafts or NA.

How can I check?

Hello and welcome.

Is there any prospect of contacting the former owner? Might be the only source to know for sure.

W30 or SW20?

Beat me to it, definitely not enough information for anyone to be able to answer as yet.
