Hey guys,
I just checked when I updated my build up thread last time. It’s over three years ago. OMG! So it’s time to tell you what’s going on with my MKIII 1UZ twin turbo project.
I’ve done a lot of work, rebuild the block, changed parts and things, build custom parts and so on. I’ve done tons of pictures and some of them I’m happy to share with you.
So, where to start?
Let’s start at the end of the life of one Cometic MLS head gasket in 2010 @ 1.3bar of boost on E85 fuel. I’m not realy sure why it’s blown, but I’ve done a few changes when I rebuild the engine to prevent this. After taking off the heads I decided to rebuild the engine with another head gasket, thicker head bolts, thicker block sleeves and modified heads with bigger valves and cams.
But at first an overview of the engine specs and parts...(fat letters = changed or modified parts)
Power/Torque (@ the crank) @ boost
590hp; 774Nm @ 0.9bar
682hp; 884Nm @ 1.3bar
739hp; 958Nm @ 1.5bar

Car Specs:
- ’89 Supra MKIII Turbo
- K-Sport Coilover Kit
- Work Wheels Rezax Universal 9.5 & 11x19"
- 235/35R19 front / 305/30R19 rear
The engine performs very strong now on ROZ100 octane fuel. After remapping we are running leaner and with a bit advanced ignition timing. It’s a tourque monster and there is no traction till fourth gear on 305/30 R19 wheels @ 1.5bar of boost. Ok, the tires are old and I think with semis there should be traction in fourth gear (maybe in third, too). But then I’m not sure if the R154 tranny would be still on life. Haha...!
I did some testing with a custom short runner intake manifold. But it seems, that the runner was too short and the engine performed like an old horse without any punch. A lot of work and at the end of the day...bad results. The fuel map was very flat all the time till 6000 rpm. Maybe at 10000rpm or higher this intake would show some higher numbers. I will do some more testing with different intakes, maybe in 2015...
I would like to do some testing with E85 and higher boost levels too.
But before increasing the boost, I think I have to change the transmission. Tremec T56 Magnum is, what I want to buy...
