You guys are awesome anybody from Southern Cali here? I'd love to get some help from you veterns.
I love the NA-T idea but a 1JZ and 2JZ sounds cool but costly. You guys all rock, keep the suggestions coming!

Any websites or reccomended places/shop in san diego where i can buy 1JZ/2JZ or NA-t Kits in So CAL? I'm in no rush and love the different ideas you guys are coming up with. My only experience with cars is a 67 mustang coupe. an ol ford V6 is a far cry from the v6 v6 turbo and lexus v8's you all drive.
I'm impressed

Well here are some general websites that you can check out to further improve your knowledge on going Na-t or 1jz swap. Also some sites that you can purchase the parts from (There are more but this will get you started) Also if you are looking to do the 1j swap, Call up J-hot imports or Jarco. Both are great companies to work with

up to 450whp on a stock setup w/ headgasket + fuel controller, 550whp with upgraded fuel system. It's a T61 turbo, .84 a/r, I believe.

I'd go with bigger than 440's as far as injectors go. I honestly don't have much money at all in my 67mm turbo kit and I'm just an intercooler and piping away from having it completed. If you're patient and don't mind forum hunting you can pull deals like you wouldn't believe, if you have the money to move on them when you see them.

Yeah, that's for the 2JZ-GE... practically the same block, just higher comp pistons, thinner head gasket and no oil squirters. Both the GE and GTE blocks can hold up to ~1000hp on stock internals.

Keep in mind, a gte motor even on stock boost is probably less reliable than a properly built/tuned na-t motor. The stock SMIC doesn't cool as well as most aftermarket FMIC's and the stock 2JZGTE turbo's are ceramic so they shatter after a while from heat stress. Factory 2JZ's do give you a slightly wider powerband at 8-14psi though.
Emphasis on "properly built/tuned."

Yes Stock turbos on every good motor ever build suck minus a s15 sr. IMO I think a gte motor is just safer and once built has more potential than a ge motor. I dont like to play that lets see how long it holds game. Rather it be reliable since he has the cash too. Oil squirters for pistons and extra oil galleys and cooling couldnt be bad right? Im assuming that since thats what toyota did from the factory
