Has anyone on this forum done the swap? or does anyone have a 98+ GS3 turbo (via turbokit)?

We have one member with a V300 swap and as far as I know no GS's with aftermarket turbo kits.
I want to do the V300 Swap but I am having a hard time finding the right car .
I hope to find one soon so I can get started.

 

Yes it can hold more power with stock internals(like 900hp), but the 2jzge can still hold like 600 rwhp on the stock internals with just a thicker head gasket. That extra power would all be on the top end anywayt with a gte. I would think that those wanting more power from their gs300 would want more low end power anyway from a smaller turbo. When using a smaller turbo the 2jzge would be nicer anyway because they have very flat torque curves. If you look at a dyno chart from a turbo'd 2jzge it is just a plateau from like 5k to redline. I think this would be better for a GS anyway. Plus to get more than 450 hp with the 2jzgte you would have to swap out the stock twins. That is a huge expense that could be avoided by turbocharging the 2jzge
