if your serious about this then you should check out mcelligott's treads on his single turbo es, but i dont think your 14g's is enough for a 2jz swap lol.

There was a company in Japan called Topline that made a twin turbo 1MZFE engine kit, I believe for about $7 to $8K (don't hold me to that) and it was used on a Toyota Estima minivan. Below is the only photo I have of that engine.

I'd tell you to build up your motor, ESPECIALLY the transmission (like I just did) before you even think of such an idea.

My idea is to use someting light out of an Audi or VW 1.8T engine and put that in my RX300 and that is a not-to-distant-in-the-future project, but if you don't build up that motor and engine to handle the job, you can kiss the engine good bye. I have seen too many an owner come to my 1/4 mile track and blow an engine due to a sucky turbo adaptation.

Let me justify my prior post . .

Its not even the fact that you lack any knowledge in spelling or grammar, why would a 38 year old suddenly be interested in getting a third generation ES300 and throwing in either a supra engine or a turbo . . . If I was a 38 year old pharmacist with a load of cash and in search of a fast car I'd get a Ferrari.

Lets be real right now . . I mean I typically don't come at people like this unless I am almost certain that what they're saying is a complete joke. The way I figure is that your a teenager who's parents gave him/her a ES300 and you want to make it go faster. I am cool with that . . you asking about throwing in a turbo . . no doubt . . saying your a 38 year old in the pharmaceutical business . . MMMMM . . no.

Good luck . . I am gonna go head back to the garage and finish up working on my spaceship.
