Hey whats up everyone!!!
OK, I am thinking of putting some mods in the ES 300, 99!!!
I'm from Ontario Canada and I prefer to go to shops in the K-W, maybe even mississauga area!!!
So anyone has any input??
Like what kind of mods I can put in the engine and how much HP will that yield?? and for how much Canadian or American cost, doesn't really matter!
Money is not an issue!!!
PLEASE gimmie some input
Thanks alot

hey man. i m from toronto too..
if u really want some power up on your ES... you choose the wrong car man...
if money is not any issue.. the only way to power up your ES is try to test fit the TRD S/C (for the camry) in your ES...(same engine layout)

IMO invest on some supension/handling/brakes first... then ask about power later on.... or it will be too danger for it to handle...

 

TRD supercharger's gonna be tough to put in a 99 due to VVT-i. The best ES's to supercharge are the 97 and 98 cars.

 

I just checked the TRD supercharger for the 97-01 Camry's (automatic) is for $3G's US, hp gaine is about 70 HP and torque is about 50?? It seems decent but can it fit on the '99 engine??
Plus, would putting air intake, exhaust, and chip make any noticable difference to the car from the stock form??
Thanks

With some pulley mods, the TRD S/C can pull 343HP at the crank out of the 1MZ-FE. However, that's only for cars with manual transmissions. One of the reasons TRD limited the output of the 1MZ supercharger was to avoid putting excessive stress on the automatic tranny.

I went through a phase where I was obsessed with putting this TRD S/C on my '96 to make it into a real sleeper. I read up on everything I could find about the TRD kit, and ultimately resigned myself that the major stumbling blocks were electronic (ECU and tranny ECU) more than mechanical. Ryan (flipside909) or some of the Team S/C3 guys seem to be real knowledgeable about performance upgrades to the 1MZ. In fact, check out Team S/C3's site for some ideas (I believe there's a link in flipside's sig).

 

thanks alot man!!!
