Is200 turbo
Where do I take all the feeds from for the turbo and can I still use the vvti?.
I just need a shopping list to collect all the parts ,I know the manifold will be the hardest bit to get hold off.
Would the standard engine cope with 300bhp if not wot sort of figure would I be looking at?

25-02-2021, 04:03 AM #1Right I've decided to convert my car to turbo, wot are the basic parts I need to run standard internals until I find some forged pistons or 1g-gte internals.

2) vvti works fine. See comment about having a good tune.
3) get a manifold made. 3" down pipe etc.
4) shopping list:
Fuel pump
Fpr and return line are optional but advised
Turbo
Manifold
Oil lines
Boost controller (optional)
Bigger injectors
Spark plugs
Piggyback/after market ECU
Intercooler
Tune/mapping
Exhaust
Induction
I've priced up a cheapo build and I will need at least 4500 quid, probably more than that.

Oil feed can be taken from vvti solenoid and returned to the sump

Engine conversion money will be more than that. You will still need the fuel pump, custom exhaust, ideally an after market ECU and then all the fab work. You will need a custom prop for engine swaps, then you have the wiring to worry about. Unless you can do it all yourself expect to spend 8000+ on an engine swap.

25-02-2021, 11:11 AM #5It doesn't matter what turbo you go for, you will need to get a manifold made. There were a few knocking about on eBay a while back but I've not seen one for over a year.

25-02-2021, 11:34 PM #7Sam B did it himself and it ended up owing him a lot more than 4500. Engine swaps are not cheap. If you want a jz engine, get an is300 and do an na-T conversion.
