KMP Speed Shop<\/a> is returning to World Cup Finals at Maryland International Raceway with their “Frog 4.0” MR2 to compete in the Wild Street class. The company made several changes since Frog 3.0<\/a>. The car is now running a Honda K24 block with BC Racing 92 mm forged crank with custom L.A. sleeves, custom R&R aluminum rods, custom Wiseco pistons with Trend Performance TP1 series 23 mm pins, and 4Piston oil pump. KMP Speed Shop made a new engine plate and new custom mounts allowing the motor to lean forward 18 degrees. The engine is now compound-turbocharged with a G40-1150 small turbocharger, G57-3000 main turbocharger, and custom KMP Speed Shop intercooler with Vibrant 6-inch core. Hopefully these upgrades give KMP Speed Shop the title of “World\u2019s Quickest MR2”.<\/p>\n
