2JZ engine limits?

[TH3_5T1G]

Hi all,

 

I'm a new member and have only recently purchased a twin turbo 6 speed supra.

 

Already wanting more power as previously had a 400hp scooby.

 

Anyone have a rough idea of what sort of power i could run from a standard engine safely?

 

Thanks,

Tom

400hp id say if your referring to a stock engine with stock turbos!

 

as mentioned below... 500-600 seems reasonable although you probly be able to run up to 700

Hi Tom, 500-600hp seems to be the accepted safe limit on stock rods, although plenty run much more power than that these days (there's many running 600-700hp now). To get this sort of HP though, you'll need fuelling mods and a different turbo setup, along with a new clutch and a few quite expensive extras)

It's even fabled that someone on Supraforums ran over 1000hp on a stock bottom end for a short period.

So long as it's serviced correctly the engine should run double the stock HP reliably.
