Bourne33065 Posted May 1, 2005 Share Posted May 1, 2005 Those of us who have an SC400 or a 300 know that she flies. However, I was wondering what mods are out there to really push her over the top, and really make her soar? Also, how much are they? Thanks!!

JDOwen2 Posted May 2, 2005 Share Posted May 2, 2005 How about one of those electic superchargers? And don't forget the whistle in your exhaust that sounds like a turbo charger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesN Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 You can start with BFI (really cheap). Then go to exhaust, headers, and TC (affordable). And if you still got any money left go with Turbo or Supercharge (expensive). After this she will SOAR all you want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AWJ Posted May 7, 2005 Share Posted May 7, 2005 Gentlemen, take a step back and think about all this. The only real way to gain power is to increase displacement or add flow and change compression. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Go4Shoped Posted May 7, 2005 Share Posted May 7, 2005 a 2jz-gte is the motor from a supra twin turbo. how much are you looking to spend? i have no clue on prices for the turbo or s/c Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AWJ Posted May 7, 2005 Share Posted May 7, 2005 Guys, our search feature will uncover a wealth of information on this exact subject. I have detailed it as well as many others before me. The supra TT motor is an option, as well as a naturally aspirated to turbo conversion wich is what I use. Many ways to skin the cat, I feel the best option is to use the perfectly good powerplant given in the SC3... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bartkat Posted May 7, 2005 Share Posted May 7, 2005 Talk to Lance in Miami. http://www.toyomoto.com/sc300.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AWJ Posted May 8, 2005 Share Posted May 8, 2005 Sure that's an excellent option, if you can get a hold of the guy... ... talk about a 1 in a million shot... but Toyomoto is top notch... so is Sound Performance out of Chicago. There are a slew of other credible sources out there but many more shotty ones... Just be patient, research and be prepared for hassles, delays, a couple redoes, and lots of fun on the road...
