You will love the S366. I know it sounded like a jet engine under boost above 16psi. I did not have to use a spacer for clearance issues. Keep us posted man. GL with the build, I know you will be very happy with the choices so far. I know I was.

BTW, thanks for keeping the GA community safe with your heroic efforts from being a firefighter. From one firefighter to another. .....

September - My mechanic took a new job...and kinda left me out in the cold.

October - Finally trailored the car to a trust friend and a former employee at Zen. After the nonsense I went with this car, I'm very wary about dropping this off to anyone. But Luke put my anxiety to rest and rested assured, he got the job done.

The Driftmotion did require a good bit of modification especially to the downpipe. We had a add a T4 spacer so that the massive Borg Warner S366 could clear the manifold after it was properly clocked. Otherwise than that, I'm pretty happy what with I have...

...even sprung for a SS catch can and some other things needed to be addressed while the car was down.

It pulls like a freight train and there some more things that are gonna get done...

...rebuild the auto tranny.

...install Supra TT Auto Diff

...save them pennies for a new Engine Management because I don't wanna run the gReddy eManage system.

Another single turbo 2JZ-GTE SC300 is on the streets.

good job JB , just be careful in boosting till you have the right fuel system and ECU.

You don't want to be getting lean and hurt your motor.

Already armed with a 255lph and 550cc but I understand where you're coming from.

Gonna upgrade to bigger lines, injectors, and fuel pump sooner than later.

The black MKIII is a 2JZGTE single turbo

And the red one is his wife's and it's getting prepped for a 1UZ build.

I eventually sold the Advans to free up some cash for the seats.
