lexus v8 motor

[x_way2ez_x]

will a standard lexus v8 handle low boost turbo or super charger? what are the internals like? any major weak points that deffently need to be upgraded?

thanx

It'll handle low boost fine.
I've never heard of one blowing up/seizing because of turbos or a supercharger.

Major weakpoints I'm not too familiar with but AFAIK there aren't really major ones as such that could cause breakdown etc.

What sorta power/boost you planning on running?

[CozmoNz]

Injectors....

arnt they just on par for their n/a performance?

they are only mid 200's cc for flow, but there are 8 of them.

3sgte:

4x 540cc injectors
each injector injecting to 500cc's (4 / 2000cc)

1uzfe:

8x 250?cc injectors
each injector injecting to 500cc's (8 / 4000cc)

i can see where injectors will be a problem

unless yaknow, they can all take turns at injecting all 8 injectors to each cylinder

1JZ has 380s and that *6 is only 2280.

I've seen the stock injectors put out 250kw @ tread in some of them.

[deaf_rattle]

and 7mgte injectors go in with very minimal modification, resulting in 8x440cc

There are several out there. Try Lextreme for resources.

I am tossing up between a 1UZ Twin turbo and a NA-T in the Supra I am about to buy...

[EVL GSXR]

Mate just brought a Direct Bolt on Super Charger for his Lexus from the State's should be interesting once the Link Plus is Tuned. Be one bad ass Hilux

Also know of a Race Car running a Lexus (standard internal's) with twin GT28's pushing 600hp so yeah can be done

[Dell'Orto]

Err, twin TD05 or TD06's are hardly small time....depending on what sort of TD05, thats like 650-700hp of airflow...

[x_way2ez_x]

prob just standard evo1 turbos or step them upto 20g compressor wheels
small time

[Silent Knight]

Also 99.7325% of the time when people concider things on here they never end up doing it...

Please prove me wrong...

Going by that it seems that you have problems with even the most of basic things such as using a keyboard. Which makes me think that you are even more likely to fall in the 99.7325% of people as referred to above...
