Which would be adding a turbo onto a NA? ive looked into it but the kits are very costly... i could get the turbo itsself for about 300-500 but then i dont know what else to get tht i need to hook it up... and i know like upgrading stuff in my engine would be needed to handle the HP but like would that get out 300HP?
would the swaping stuff be all i need for 300 HP or still more stuff which = more money lol. Yeaaa a BHG is a pretty common problem with those ive herd... although HG are only lk 130 dollars... but idkBorHor said:

I havent done NA>T but I think the power is 260-270HP, then you can add a boost controller, fuel pump and some bigger injectors to get the 300 your looking for.
If your worried about the Head gasket you can have the head and block surfaced and install a MHG.

I don't know much about swapping a 1J in.. but i do know is that you do not want to start a swap with an engine only. It will take alot of time and money to find all the little parts that you will need in the end.
ok wow didnt mean to put that one... but here is what i ment to post...

The specs on that site are way off, the 7MGTE make 230 Lbs torqu where they have only 200 listed.
If you wanna do a quick swap and make more power slowly over time Id go with the GTE, it has a smaller initial investment, is a direct drop in, and requires little to get working in your car.

Well would i get more power from swaping or like transferring the stuff? i mean the engine would be basically the same either way right?
Yeah, what's with those specs? And they don't even know the hp? Don't buy from them for sure, the look like they have no idea what they're doing.Yellow 13 said:
Do you plan to do most of the work yourself? And is this your DD? How much time do you wanna invest?
Watcha mean by swapping vs transferring?
I dont get what your saying, The 7MGE and GTE are similar yes.
But the 1JZ is a completely different motor from the 7M.
The 7MGTE will bolt directly to your car as is, you wont need custom mounts or anything. You will just need to change out the harness ECU and a few sensors.
