I know I need to dump my wastegate better This is the first picture I've posted with my new IS300 fans. I keep meaning to do a writeup but if you track your car (road race) and don't want to keep the stock fans this is the only real option.

What you were saying about road racing and getting rid of stock fan, does that only work on your 2jzgte set up or will that work on the SC400, really would like to get rid of that hydraulic fan, i "track days" also and i cant sacrifice the best cooling option for that.

I think it should work and yes those stock sc400 fans suck. These are great, they move tons of air.

First picture is my stock engine bay with 120k miles on it, the second is the first trial fit of my M90 supercharger setup.

Finished the supercharger setup and sold it, hopefully going the turbo route soon to make some decent power.

Matt.

Wow Matt! You sold it? Makes me question my decsision to sell the TT kit I have setting in my shop.
How much boost were you running? What kind of numbers were you getting?

Hi Scott.

The plan is to go single turbo and aim for 300rwkw on a stock motor.

I actually never dyno'd my motor with the M90, finished the setup then sold it. The guy that bought it had a 96 Supra converted with a 5speed 1UZ. Boost was around 7psi and that should have made about 240ishkw at the crank with the stock ECU.

Matt.
