Thnx and hope for some good answer's. cheer's Stavros. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz6002 Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 (edited) The best bet is to get a TT in there, then get used to it. Then BPU, and if that isn't enough (and you have enough money) stick a single on there. Edited February 20, 2012 by Gaz6002 I forgot the n because I'm a nimrod.

Abz Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Go single straight if you got a large bucket of money & want insane power. Taking steps is safer for a number of reasons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abtin90 Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 They won't have the same pistons the tt has lower compression pistons. Have you considered going NA-T you have the perfect gearbox? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you considered going NA-T you have the perfect gearbox? yes,i am going for single,have to stay 320 hp to re-register the engine and then i will put up the power.you mean the shape of the gear box?

Dim Sum Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Like everyone have said already get the 2JZ GTE engine in first and see if you are happy at BPU. If BPU is not enough go single and if it is big power you are after eventually it be cheaper to use the 2JZ GTE block than the 2JZ GE . Stands to be corrected.

Dnk Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 Sell your NA and buy a nicely done single and save yourself a shed load of cash The single conversion having been done to a tt, then you can have 500 hp even on the auto Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luxluc Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 As Dnk said, starting immediately with a TT engine (or a nice prepared single) can safe a lot of cash rather than starting building a single from an NA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
