gunmetal_Altezza Posted April 22, 2007 Share 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gunmetal_Altezza Posted April 22, 2007 Author Share 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 Share 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." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IS/SUPRA hybrid Posted June 9, 2007 Share 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.
