The car feels great with the extra power.I believe it should come from the factory like this.The procharger sound is great and makes the car sound like its a beast although it s not.With this power it always spin my wheels in 1st and 2 gear.I wonder how you start yours with 50 hp more.I m huppy with it but your swap will always be my dream for this car.Congrats again Jeff

Awesome job. Commend you for sticking to it.
I attempted a feat similar to this with an accord and a CL engine but couldnt complete. Seeing this now makes me want to invest in a project similar to this with
Great job!

Thanks, I actually just finished sorting a couple small last things this past week and it is finally fully functional. I actually now consider the swap to be finally completed. There is nothing left to do.

I heard someone here in Australia was able to twin turbo charge the 2gr fse while ditching the direct injection and made 500hp 550nm torque. He paired it with the 250 manual box which leads me to believe the gearbox can actually handle ALOT more than what we think.
No clue on how long it will last with that much power though haha.

Toyota also used the transmission behind the 2GR-FSE in the GRMN Mark X 6MT with slight differences to some of the ratios and synchros as well as using the IS220d's RA63 tailshaft section as well (dampened drive shaft joints).
