That. would. be. very. nice....... :D That would make things very nice and simple and very neat........ heck, even just nicking the a/w intercooler packaging and slapping in your own SC would be handy. Along with a couple of some nice big ass turbos, I see a beautiful thing, me wants.

Londinium (UK) :)

25, going on 18 ;)

Didn't even know this was here :D Yay! Recognition :D

Holy crap! Nice one dude! Go for it man, I know you've had your set backs but all power to you for pushing forwards and sticking with it, I wish the best for you! A quick question for you if you don't mind, when you say "we will then get a CNC girlde made up to fit across the mains and sump...

So the Jag XKR setup comes factory with a/w intercoolers in the supercharger package? Got any pics? :D

What if you kept the stock pistons and rods and didn't bother with the ARP sexy bits. Do we reckon a stock (pre 95 it now seems) 1UZFE would be able to handle it? Would the stock ecu be able to handle it as well (isn't it limited by the amount of boost it could handle) or else use some sort of...

Pah. Suck, squeeze, bang, blow... it'll be fine ;)

Yes basically you the overall conclusion seemed to be to blow the the TC through the SC and do not decouple the SC or anything...... compound all the way. Rod: I'd be interested to know what would be required to hit that kind of target, I'm guessing at the crank, but that should be fine for...

as with my other thread I am interested in what is capable with supercharging the this engine.... with this SC or others, can you hit 500+ bhp?

Personally I like the look of the DDR Motorsport SP4 (well it would technically be the SP8 but thats another story). The only thing desperately wrong with the SP4/8 is that it looks like a Mclaren F1, which is a very nice looking car indeed and is a great car, with the DDR SP4 also looking...

Interesting, a quick "trd girdle" google came up this artical which I think I have read before: http://www.turbomagazine.com/features/0210tur_import_drag_racing_toyota_celica/ But the most interesting thing is this bit: "The party started with a TRD custom-prepped 331 ci Toyota Tundra iForce...

Would it not be possible to create the girdle out of cast iron just like the block so that everything is kept the same so as to avoid the problems mentioned? I'm also wondering if the stock mains configuration of the 2UZ with an iron crank girdle would be as strong if not stronger than the...

TurboAndrew, you talking about the Whipple 2.3L? If they can hit 600bhp then 500bhp should be a safe zone for them... do they make *the* noise though :P Lysholm.....I've heard that mentioned before, I think in high regard as well, are they a bit tasty? Want me to see if I can find out the price...

Schuuuuuuuu-weeeeeeet. Now thats what I am talking about! :684: It seems like most people find it annoying, I find it intoxicating. I'd do a supercharge just for that whine, I find it pointless to have a supercharger without the whine :no: Turbo's make a great sound as well, especially...

I'm thinking more on something outside of a Lexus...... :cool2:

Maybe its just me not searching hard enough but there seem to be loads of threads on turbo sizing but not supercharger sizing. Granted turbo's seem more popular and from what limited info I have read on SC's on the 1UZ it doesn't look like you can get anywhere near the same power as you can...

Heh, check back a page or two.... I know *EXACTLY* what you mean. Corners that weren't corners before but at 120MPH+ they are now :Eyecrazy:

When they say HP range is 575, is that for across the set (of how many rods?) or is it just one rod?

Heh, thank you lextreme for the inspiration to learn all that I have learnt so far on engines.... Since picking up this site I have gone from knowing practically nothing about how engines work (just how to rag the hell out of them) to knowing considerably more.
