according to MAP ECU folks, you have complete control of the fuel maps... couldn't I just put in larger injectors? I'm not sure what my "goal" HP is, but it would be neato to be pushing near 600 HP... It sounds like that value is an actual, attainable number on mildly modded 1uz...

I posted some things a LONG time ago about a planned SC400 turbo project. I have since changed my mind and decided to go with a GS400 instead. Still 1uz though! Unfortunately, the project isn't due to begin until next year... My goal is to acquire the car at the end of this year and begine...

I know. For some reason, he wants to go with the 1jzgte... I told him to just turbo the stock 2jz, but he's on his own planet... Can you think of any advantages to that? Are there problems that you know of with boosting the stock 2jz (other than typical N/A to F/I conversion issues...)...

whew... Well, that's good to know. I figured it would be one of those engines that just fall apart when you work on them (all the plastic stuff breaks and stuff like that) or that the engine arrangement is so cramped that it makes working on it next to impossible... I'm glad to hear that it's...

Ok, so I'm used to working on my Honda. I'm going to buy an SC400 in the near future. Are the 1uzfe engines a PITA to work on? They look pretty complex and the SC400 engine bays look very hectic and cramped... I'm a little scared to think about working on that after getting used to the...

Thanks for responding! Well, the reason I didn't ask those particualr questions was because I figured that due to the popularity of the Supra as a tuner car, the I6s receive much more support. My main concern is modifying the stock engine etc. Will I need to do a Supra swap in order to get...

I'm planning on getting an SC300/400 by next spring, but I can't dedide which one I want... Either one I get, the first major mod will be suspension, but the engine will definetely get turbo'd... V8/I6 which is a better platform to start with? I'd like to have around 400-500 HP on tap. Which...
