LOGIE Posted November 30, 2009 Author Share Posted November 30, 2009 1UZ & 2UZ. Keep it in the family. was thinking along the lines of 3UZ-FE but i imagine that would mucho ££, So your prob right with 1UZ OR 2UZ, just fancied doing something a bit different from N/A to TT, anyone got any idea whats the goin rate for a 1UZ,2UZ with an autobox?

tooquicktostop Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 (edited) The power gains are not significant enough to justify the use of the Toyota V8, its a nice conversion when done but way down on power I would look at a SMC or Ford V8 crate built from the US and then get the fabrictions work to make it fit, adding a SC would make for big power I do think the best results for the money would be to fit a TT engine and a single turbo Edited November 30, 2009 by tooquicktostop (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edge Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 And you can pick up 1UZ's for £500 with wiring etc. 260 bhp stock on lexus ecu and nearly 300 torques And a remap of the ecu or piggy back should see you nearly 300bhp. Plus they are light so alot of gains to be had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
