Those that grew up knowing Min Cai, his passion for 3S-GTE engines surprisingly has reach almost a decade. The Starlet EP-71 with the 3S-GTE engine has stamped in everyone's mind to this very day. Due to other car related issues, i managed to meet Min Cai again and we had a long afternoon chat.
After seeing his new 3S engine, i knew that he had blend his skills perfectly with the help of trips to Thailand for Souped-Up Drag Championship, reading HPI magazines and absorbing the new technological change in the drag industries. He is a mechanic and also an engine builder in his own garage.
As seen on photos, a nice 3S engine being placed nicely for the RWD terrain. A huge turbine to support his 500-600hp high power and high revving output. Hoosier tyres to support his 2.5bar blistering traction. Custom intake manifold with 80mm throttlebody and 1000cc injectors to squirt racing fuel. The car is electronically powered by Haltech and tuned locally.
Jokingly Min Cai mentioned that he would sell the engine if the price is right to those that appricates the engine and its delivering power.
I respect Min Cai for his patience, driven passion and friendliness towards his modification.
