vindedreal Posted April 20, 2007 Share Posted April 20, 2007 Hi,I currently have the 2jz-ge , I want to turbo charge it and I was wondering what are the minimal parts required to put a turbo on and see some gains I already have the turbo unit(the circular looking thing) that I took off an 2jz-gte so what else do I need?

JDMSomething Posted April 20, 2007 Share Posted April 20, 2007 It would probably be better to go with an aftermarket turbo setup, and get it properly tuned. Because yours is not boosted to start with, it will be hard for you to tune it yourself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vindedreal Posted April 21, 2007 Author Share Posted April 21, 2007 Actually I intend to build my own turbo kit,Not literally,I just want to know the parts that are required So i can buy them and Have them put on by a mechanic,Like I'd rather buy the turbo and the intercooler seperately instead of in a set,I just want to know waht Parts i need for an operational turbo.

92Lex Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 It depends on how much WHP you are shooting for. Are you going for a fully built motor or are you just going to use a thicker headgasket? Who is going to tune the car for you? Is the "tuner" going to use a stand-alone for fuel management or chip burn it? Is the "tuner" going to run the HFM in a draw-through or blow-through set-up, or no HFM at all (MAP sensor). Are you going to add a level 10 torque converter to your transmission? There's a lot to "slapping" on a turbo. If you're still interested in going the FI route and would like some help, then please answer the above questions.
