    Project Thread LS 400 Single Turbo

    Today we decided to start with the optimisation of the intake manifold. We want to get rid of that stock intake manifold with its long runners. Most likely a Q45 throttle body with optimized velocity stacks, volume 4+ maybe even 5 liters. Some more progress on the buckets and valve clearance...

    Another update on rdms TT sc400..

    ...luckily i copied the content of M3Turbo's post: This is what he wrote and got lost: ----- Motor = 1UZ , stock bore, stock stroke Max Boost = 26PSI AFR across boost band = 10.8:1 (yes it's still rich) Max Torque = 1179NM (870 FtLbs) @ 5K Max HP = 880 HP @ 5.4K Outside ambient temp = 30C...

    A650e valve Body / shift kit and transmisison thread

    Transdude, since we are on a V8 forum: will those modified IPT A340e/A650e boxes survive the torque delivered from a built Lexus 4.0 V8 ? I am thinking of a built block with 600 rwhp and 800+ ft/lbs.... And if not, what will kill it?...excessive heat ? thx !

    How restrictive is the stock 1UZ inlet manifold ?

    ...discussed the inlet issue with my engine builder....first we will go with the stock manifold + stock cams and take 500+ rwhp as a goal... Next we will upgrade the inlet into something similair to this: ...after that we will get the appropriate cams... Today we also looked at the 3UZ...

    How restrictive is the stock 1UZ inlet manifold ?

    ...so any opinion on how to make more then 400 rwkw with the stock 1UZ ?...(pump 98 gas, built block with ported heads, upgraded springs, T88-34d single Turbo..)...

    How restrictive is the stock 1UZ inlet manifold ?

    That's an interesting question...but again, not enough data to safely predict what will happen... I know of one: 600 rwhp and 600 rw ft/lbs... We will take your dyno results as a ballpark estimate for sure...just wondering if it can be topped in stock form...possible ???

    How restrictive is the stock 1UZ inlet manifold ?

    Thx for the info.... ...since we are making a built block with some nice internals that can handle 8-8.5k rpm we already know that the inlet will be restictive based on design and experience by others...same goes for the stock cams... Unlike with the 2JZ there is no proven inlet manifold that...

    How restrictive is the stock 1UZ inlet manifold ?

    Thx...are there any dyno sheets of reving past 6500 rpm with the stock inlet?....

    How restrictive is the stock 1UZ inlet manifold ?

    Guys, now that we are building the 1UZ, we moved to shim under bucket with upgraded springs with the right lbs needed etc etc....so we dont expect "valve float" at high rpm....target rpm +/- 8000. First we will try the stock cams and see what figures we get... Now i am wondering if the stock...

    1UZ v.s. 2JZ GTE

    2JZ vs. V8 single turbo: http://videos.streetfire.net/video/turbo-mustang-vs-single-i_79124.htm maybe a good prediction ?

    1UZ v.s. 2JZ GTE

    Comparing a stock 2JZ GTE vs. stock 1UZ doesn't make sense.... Both modified, boosted and having the same power output (hp), the 1UZ engine will have way more torque....and a different dyno curve. It depends what you are looking for, i guess....from my experience i have driven boosted 4...

    Project Thread LS 400 Single Turbo

    Yes, color is grey....and this '96 LS is in perfect condition, so it will be a blast to drive once it's done :drive: Updates will come soon, currently the heads are being prepared...and the exhaust will be welded..etc etc...
