Default Intro/2jzgte build help

Hey guys just purchased this 99 sc300 after always looking for a 2jzgte to get my hands on . Also always loved the sc platforms. Don't know much about it yet been with Nissan most of my life( build wise) but always loved the supras. My first car was a p-type 85 supra that we swapped in a 6mge. Loved it. But I just bought this and would like to get some help on usdm or jdm (kid told me usdm) I've read up a lot on them but still don't know. Has a mass air flow delete so that is one reason why I can't tell haven't pulled the vc off too inspect cams or looked at the injectors. It's on a fuel pressure tune with single t-70 journal bearing turbo that dyno'd at 500whp and 430ftlbs on 20lbs. I'd like to know what the best standalone or tuning source would be for this. I want to reach 650 at least I've read the stock blocks can reach that safely ( correct me if I'm wrong) [

Thanks guys ! Ill work on the car and post more pics and updates when its out, need to see what I'm working with first. I discovered it is a 93 motor which emissions will tell me to pound salt lol. Does any standalone mimic or simulate obd2? If not looks like she may be running around at night haha( upstate ny still suck)

Yea it does. Actually having some trouble with it. It runs n drives fine then if you give it full throttle it will lose power and have no throttle. Afr drops to like 8-9 and it dies. Wait a minute and it starts back up. Any ideas?
