    HELP Steer me away from a Chevy LSx

    awww man, you've confirmed what i first thought really. Only downside is initial outlay really. The LSx are quite a bit of money.

    HELP Steer me away from a Chevy LSx

    hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, been reading more into turbo conversions now..... Seems to be a LOT easier to see 400hp on a little Single T34 turbo, running about 10psi boost. Why do the supercharger kits only run upto 10psi? Bullet do a few but they all seem to see a max of 350hp??? am i missing something...

    HELP Steer me away from a Chevy LSx

    And what sort of power would you see from a 1UZ with a charger,mild ported heads, cams, and a decent manifold/exhaust system with aftermarket ECU? Cant seem to find ANY power figures whatsoever. Starting to lose interest in the 1UZ now. seems so hard to tune compared to LSx's

    W58 -1UZFE, Best Conversion kit?

    hi So do you do a WHOLE kit, inc clutch etc? or am i better off getting an aftermarket Supra Clutch? Why do you use a centre push slave, instead of an external one? Thanks!

    1uz spec advice

    Some more UK peeps :) Ruishy i see you on DW too. Im also swapping a 1UZ into a Capri for drifting. Turbo app puts me off due to all that piping and wiring. Quite like thought of Supercharging or getting some direct to Head AT throttle bodies. It all depends on what gives most...

    HELP Steer me away from a Chevy LSx

    LOL at some of the replies. Nice to meet you all :) I should have said, im looking for about 400hp if its doable??? I bought a nice (too nice to break really!) LS400 yesterday, early model (93), so ive done the deed now and gone 1UZ route. Next question, to supercharge (£4k+), OR, to go...

    HELP Steer me away from a Chevy LSx

    Hi all! iv'e been reading quite heavily into running a early non vvti 1UZ in a ford capri, but with some forced induction. I was looking at these "bullet" supercharger kits, and wondered what they work like? What sort of power would you see with mildy ported heads and 9psi of boost? Is...

    Hi all, Newbie here....

    Hi everyone. Im based in the UK and i am thinking of using the 1UZFE for a bit of drifting and track usage. I will be trying to shoehorn it into a MK2 Escort or Capri. Im thinking aboout going forced induction, whether it be charged or turbo'd. What sort of power and toque figures do they...
