Thank you, although I may be selling the HX35 Turbo kit. Something else may be in the works.

Let's just say with all the insta-torque that drifting demands, and all the lame LSx swaps going on the rectify that issue, I've got a good idea.

You know me, I'll cobble something together!

I might put one of these:


Together with this:


To make the 1jz power curve look something like this:


Stay tuned!

I'll bet you a beer and a donut your cant make your 1jz dyno graph look like that. I gotta say a "lame" LSX swap would be the way to go if you really want off idle torque. I do look forward to seeing this twincharged project hit the rollers though.

You guys are funny!

I mean a roots supercharger would certainly make great torque around 2000rpm, then let a medium frame turbo do the rest.

We'll see, but I really like beer and donuts!

Keep it jdm spool. Don't fall into the lsx trap. It's a fanboy craze like everyone buying up 240's years ago and claiming to be drifters.

If u want a chevy motor keep it in. A chevy car. Cross breeding is okay when absolutely needed. There are ample jdm engines to compete with lsx swaps. Just more homework and a little finese.
