well i think i fixed the bogging part it seems to rev great now sitting in the drive way will take for another test drive tomorow the tps was off and i had a boost leak so hopefully that fixed it and my shifting issue was even from before in my truck i think the ecu is bad because in my truck it would shift sometimes and sometimes not so i just wired in some switches on the shifter handle just incase it decided not to shift lol

how does the low end power feel with the weight of the car..i want to do the same swap automatic as well since my gf is driving it mostly for now..
if the low end power is good ill go with the 1j instead of a 2j

new update i blew up the 1jz a couple of weeks ago and have changed my mind on motors i have decided on a 5.3 chevy vortec motor. Im going to turbo it and put a th350 transmission behind it i cant wait to start the new swap and am also getting rid of all the abs crap under the hood.
