Hi, do some research on engine mapping-this is the biggest gain per pound spent area :thumbsup:

In a nutshell!!
You have the right engine!! Talk is if this being the next 2jz. Ditch the twin turbos a good single turbo of the right size. Better exhaust and a aftermarket ecu.

I know if a 135 that did this. On stock injectors and engine that made over 700bhp!!

Do it but make sure your aware of exactly what’s involved!!
My little blue zed is in lots of bits. With lots of things started and not many finished! I may have found the limits of my time and ability!!

I put in a K&N airfilter, decat downpipes to go with the back boxes, got a stage 2 remap and am producing 385bhp 450lb/ft torque. Next year will do suspension(which feels stretched under load), springs and bushes, poss brakes and LSD too before next upgrades. Am thinking bigger FMIC and air intake and then ball bearing turbos before new remap. A hoping for 500+ bhp.
