It's like drag racing a WRX or a Civic.........WHY?
It's not what the engine or car will be best at, why waste your time and money?
The 1jz would be better for a drift car, or a track car.

You'll be just fine on the interstate.
Dave's ~300whp 1jz was pulling about 2 car lengths on the freeway before my 420whp 7m spooled up. Where the 1jz shines is throttle response and nice powerband with the right turbo.
I just ramble on sometimes :blah: , don't worry too much

THAN AGAIN THE TRADE OFF WITH THE 1J IS THAT IT HAS MORE HORSE AND IS FAR MORE ADVANCES THAN THE 7M. I SHOULD ALSO ADD THAT THE 1J IS ALSO ALOT MORE RELIABLE, MEANING U DONE KEEP ON BLOWING UR HG LIKE 7MS.
