Question 2jzge turboed

Hi guys !!
I have heard that you guys in the US have been having some fun with turboing 2jzge's
I was wondering how thay are going ?
and the mods that you had to do to make it reliable?
What sort of price would you pay for them in the US ?
Or am I just chasing my tail???
thanks guys

Welcome!

I would do a search on here and supraforums.com on the word "turbo", you will have plenty of information that will take days to read.

You should see Kentucky. Especially my neck of the woods. Almost scary.

Just some jap 3.0.
You know, gotta keep in terms that are understandable. Here, "turbos aren't so great" according to the local hot rod guys.

funny about the turbos not being great thing lol

i remember two years ago rednecks around here yapping about that and how superchargers make more reliable power, etc... this coming from people who own SBC iroc-z's lol
then it happened...

JMS (nationally renowned ford tuner) opened up a can of whoop-*** and started putting out turbo 5.0s like crazy...
couple T66 and T76 turbo 5.0s running around; and the rednecks started shutting their mouths about turbos not being great... especially when they watch pump gas 5.0s hit 5s in the 1/8th

real funny seeing new supercharged Cobras come into the shop; and leaving with turbos instead and making more power with less effort

Isn't that Molly chick from the Joe Schmoe show on SpikeTV from Alabama. She is one of the hottest girls I have ever seen!
