Gazi...You bet!!! Even though I went through the wiring harness and triple checked it over and over again, I still had some doubts....Thank god I didn't miss anything because troubleshooting sucks!

I want to thank all of you guys on clublexus for your feedback and support...

I will be taking TONS of pics once the car gets fully detailed...I will also take it to the dyno in a couple of weeks to see what type of numbers it will put out...

Default New pic of the car..

Well, I have had the 2jzgte swap for a couple of weeks and the car runs really strong! I am boosting at 14 psi and it feels really good compared to my last NA-T turbo kit. Need to start saving to get a Boost Logic built automatic before I think about getting a single turbo kit. Here is a pic of the car.

Looking good! I'm thinking of either built transmission or TH400.

Thanks Chris! I don't know how much power you want to make but I think a Boostlogic tranny would be good enough.. Here is a pic I took of the engine bay...I still need to detail it because it is really dirty..



Here's another angle of the car...

Well, I want something like SP63 or SP67. I just want something bullet proof for transmission. Anyway, here is a shot of my engine bay:

Looks good Chris!! Who did the install for you? As for your turbo choice, I would get the T67 GTQ. That is the turbo I will be getting from BL after I buy a BL tranny..

Dudes Performance did the install. I was thinking about the SP67 and SP63; however, SP73 looks nice too. I will have to see.

I concur, the T67 GTQ is an awesome choice

I have had some people pm me and email me asking how my car is doing....So, I wanted to update my car's status after 3 months since the TT head install...I have driven more than 5000 miles(my trip from Dallas to Philadelphia was 1600 miles) and have had no issues, boosting at 14-16 psi and also doing some 130-140 mph highway runs...My SC300 is a 97 and I have a 97 supra TT ecu which is also OBD2. I passed Texas inspection without any problems because I didn't have a check engine light and no codes...
