Wait up and save to buy quality Scotty don't go for the hear and now solution.

I to am looking into a single turbo setup for my car next year,first stop is the GTX turbo's by Garrett/Honeywell after seeing and talking to my friends experience with his new tune all I have to see now is what it does on the track if its as good as he talks it I'm officially going single.

Whoa Whoa there I'm looking into it mate..I'm still not 100% on the change I am still really happy with what I have for stock twins I have beat on them for about 10 years and have'nt had any issues.

If I do I will be selling them as a package Turbos manifold EGCV etc also 550cc injectors with the resistor pack that must go into the loom for them to work but I fear I'm not as yet 100 % convinced but we shall see.

Scotty your best way foward is asking yourself what you want out of the car..This will make your decision alot easier.If I were you the first upgrade I'd do is get the factory Supra 4-pot callipers that will make that car alot safer for starters and I have a set of 323 mm factory rotors you can have for cheap.

If that's the case then you maybe shouldn't even be considering modifying a large turbocharged car at this stage.


Really, this is honestly the best advice. Sucks but its the truth. Its all well and good getting a better manifold and turbo setup, but what then? Stock injectors wont let you make use of it, and you cant really go for decent injectors without a decent ECU.
Trust me, I know only too well how hard modifying cars is with kids and a mortgage - its why I play with old Corollas and not FD's :lol:

I'll Have a chat to Coryn at some stage soon, figure out a price to buy his pack, if and when he changes. By the time he does I should have the cash to buy his or do one of the mentioned suggestions.

But just to as.... http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll ... ink:top:en

^^^^^^

Again Scotty you have to figure out what you want to do with your car if you want a lag monster thats what that turbo will be it'll look good on a dyno but realistically its not what you want so I agree with the above mate.

To me its GT35 or under all the rest is about the Dyno or drag racing if thats what you want then go big.

scott is ur exhaust decatted?

i was just reading about 2jzgte mods as im looking at a 1uz or 2jz soarer, it sounds the cat is a major boost restriction or something

http://www.lexusownersclub.co.uk/forum/index.php?showtopic=23564

the cats act as boost controllers, so removing these will allow the boost to increase, resulting in more power


might not be of any significance but may as well point this out...

according to that article the proper method to decat the 2jz involves putting a restrictor ring in around the decat pipe to prevent boost spikes.

perhaps if scotts exhaust does turn out to be decatted and does have this "restrictor ring" to prevent the boost spikes you mention he would notice - he could make it larger and maybe get some more boost. (not to mention a more efficient exhaust)

he was telling me his turbo should in theory be putting out more boost then hes getting from it.

just a thought. im amateur when it comes to turbos (cars in general in fact) but on the off chance this could be his problem i thought id speak up as it would be a heck of a lot cheaper then buying a new turbo or manifold only to find out its still restricted :lol:

Lol I was going to say something similar about the same guy. He has gone with a 8375 on his RB30 and we are pretty sure it will go really well.

DSR turbos are kind of let down by there shitty seals not lasting, my only gripe.

When thinking about what turbo to use I've always been a fan of considering where I want to make my power more then how much power I can potentially make, anyone mucked with variable geometry turbos? I've pulled a few apart on diesels where old guys drive them and they get clogged with diesel dust then stop working, there not stupidly complex. Would be a great option on a performance car.
