gunmetal_Altezza Posted April 22, 2007 Posted April 22, 2007 Ok..... I'm new at the forum thing so please be patient, I own a 02' is300, I was wanting to boost it, but i don't want to get into any internal building, so I was wondering if anyone (from experience) would know how much boost my stock motor and tranny can handle. Before i have to do bigger moderations. I will say now though that the tranny is automatic. Any and all help is greatly appreciated.

dcfish Posted April 22, 2007 Posted April 22, 2007 please guys, i really need some help on this, any information is appreciated I beleive I read that the l6 can be boosted to around 340hp without any internal work, The tranny will take it as well with a cooler. What boost are you considering turbo, sc ?
bartkat Posted April 22, 2007 Posted April 22, 2007 You can probably find out what you want to know here: http://my.is/forums/go-faster/ These guys discuss their cars and have FI cars anywhere from mild to extreme.
gunmetal_Altezza Posted April 22, 2007 Author Posted April 22, 2007 well is there anyway i could just take the turbo parts (turbo, manifold, etc.) off of a supra and use it??? since the is300 has a supra motor, and should i upgrade to maybe 550cc injectors, or does the motor already have strong stock injectors?

LS400_Fan Posted April 22, 2007 Posted April 22, 2007 There really is no "safe level" of boost. you just need to find out how much boost you can run with 93 octane for the compression level your motor has and make sure it's tuned rich enough for the occasion bad tank of gas you will get from the pump. No matter how much "safe boost" you have it only takes a little bit of detonation for the "boom."

IS/SUPRA hybrid Posted June 9, 2007 Posted June 9, 2007 Your IS engine isn't the same as a supra engine, so no you can't just throw a manifold and turbo from a supra on your IS. The supra manifold won't even bolt up on your IS. You can swap your GE with a GTE and have a boosted car but you will need to do a lot of research.
