Turbo size for 2JZ-GE

[Blkwinter]

Hi there guys

Manually turboing my MKIV, (NA-T) and am just wondering what an ideal size turbo will be, not looking to break any 1000hp figures, just want a bit of power down.

depends how mcuh you want to spend aye bro...

could be cheap and a t04e would spool nicely on there

or like a gt3540 or something bigger more info bro

How much you wanna spend? If you only want to slap a turbo on and dont worry about the rest, anything big will be a waste of time.
By the time you start mucking around with manifolds, injectors, ECU, thicker headgaskets it'll be easier to just buy a 2JZ Or do like that person on TM did and retrofit a 1JZGTE

Be different, put an RB20DET in!!!!!

But seriously - more info is good, how much are you willing to spend? What power would put a smile on the dial?? GT3540Rs are usually considered a nice match to a 3litre twin cam, that'd be the way I'd go if I wanted a nice street 3litre with the potential for some crazy power.

He's looking at a t70... I thought that 2 ct12b's off the 2jzgtes would go pretty nice

might as well put a 1uz in it

Banishment!!!

Anyway... depends on how much power you are after really.

For around 1 -> 1.5K you can just buy a 1JZ-GTE and slap that in. Then you can sell the NA 2J and make a bit of money back for mods. 1J with a nice downpipe + zorst/ 440cc injectors/ fmic will go rather nice and would be allot cheaper than turboing an NA 2J.

A T70??

I think if he didnt decompress the motor the Ct12b's would be very punchy, but would probably run out of puff far too quickly.

[eritate]

AH yeah of course higher compression...

hmmmm.................. what about a ct26 eg the ones you find on the 7m's

CT12Bs can see you through to nearly 300rwkw and they spool hellishly fast.
T70 would be complete overkill.

Can't really make decisions or give advise without knowing budget and how much power you're after...

[Blkwinter]

yeah sorry guys didnt have my morning coffee, umm i've sussed out a T70, compression is sorted its going to be around 8.5, fitting a rather large gasket, just so no piston work had to be done. Also sussed out a 6speed getrag gearbox maybe just seeing the guy tonight about it. Small things like BOV and external wastegate are sorted, just going down the lines of manafolds and ECU now. Gunna be a bit of fun over the next few months

[Silent Knight]

You've sorted out a V160?

Holy crap if you find out about any other ones let me know immediately!!!
OR if you don't buy it give the get the friggen guy in contact with me!
