I can't wait to see what happens when someone gets a 1GZ running with aftermarket management and basic breathing mods.

does yours drop the tourque off like that above 4500rpm? that may be what the restricted manfold is for, probly takes a shitload of grunt out.
convenient that the graph only shows 208kw to, its probly more like 230 or so.
the only reason i wouldn't spin one to seven in stock trim is the rods, they are seriously small. they make blacktop 20v rods look like those found in a top fueler.

well since yours in already bolted in and running that puts you at a fairly big headstart on everyone else...Originally Posted by Norbie
Got the NA headers sussed out yet?
Subscribed, more pics be good.
So i'm starting up another business... really don't want to but if i can be tempted with a good offer, i may sell the engine and various collected parts....
again, this isn't definate....in my mind it is far from it.... but if tempted enough....
Please, no unrealistic offers.
how is this project going
