where can i get one, ive been to this one site called www.batfa.com and they sell the actual used supras...anyways i heard toysport in gardena cali sells the 1jz with the wiring harness...is that a good deal?
Either the compressor or the turbine housing tend to break at that boost. This I am not 100% sure of but I am sure the turbos have a reputation of breaking down at 14psi.OneJoeZee said:Huh?:icon_conf
OneJoeZee said:Heresay. They don't have a reputation of breaking at 14psi, they just have a reputation of breaking. 14 is perfectly fine. If someone blows turbos at 14, they were on their way out anyway even at stock boost. I've been way over 14psi and mine are fine. But the twins on my 2nd engine were blown when I get it, and that engine was completely stock.

<sarcasm> you mean people on supraforums spread crud and a 2.5L engine can actually make torque and ceramic wheeled turbos can boost past 1bar, say it isn't so </sarcasm> :evil2: :naughty: :biglaugh:OneJoeZee said:Everything you read on Supraforums, or wherever you found it, isn't true. If you wanna run a bit higher boost, you'll be ok. Like I said if your turbos blow, then they were going to blow anyway soon even if you were at stock boost.
It's just one of those myths people like to keep saying over and over again. I hope you don't also believe parts are hard to find for the 1J in the US and that it doesn't make any torque.

I havn't swapped my engine yet, infact it wont be here till next monday, but the turbines are ceramic, and from what I've heard I wouldn't try to push them any harder. I mean you might get really unlucky and have a piece of one of the turbines go into your engine??
