  1. Thanks for letting me join my son has a 98 Lexus GS300 with a swapped 2jzgte non vvti engine, engine work was done by SVS performance shop here in El Paso tx. Swap took about 6 months or more to complete, ran into a bunch of roadblocks with wiring and extra parts. Finally got the car back, swap was done correctly just had a bunch of issues dealing with boost issues and wiring. Turbo number 2 wasn't coming on line and the mechanics said the turbo had seized up and we either needed to go single turbo or get another set of twins, so we took the car and my son drove it. Had a coil pack explode and killed the engine, ordered some super plugs and changed spark plugs. I came into some extra money and purchased another set of twin turbos for cheap. Took the car to another shop and they did the trouble shooting procedures and figured out some lines were not connected correctly and waste gate was left open, the mechanics made the adjustments and fixed connections and 370.00 later both turbos was boosting and back on the road. We are saving for a good single turbo kit for now so more to follow. So we have an extra complete set of twin turbos sitting in the garage. More to follow
