ok so i think i've gathered from this whole forum that the least favored engine of all our cars is the 7-afe but hey most of us are stuck with it. So i've looked around and checked in most post for what everyone has suggested meaning: turbo, nitrous oxide, engine swaps. But turbos for this engine are not only hard to piece together but cause alot of issues. Now what i'm asking for is before we turbo and nos we need internals right? cams, rods, pistons, heads redone...ect. but these are hard to find from what i've looked. maybe its just me and i'm really crappy at looking for parts. soo to make this short if you know where to find cams for a 7 put up a link. if you know where to find FORGED pistons, post a link or light weight and stronger rods....you know the deal by now THANKS guys and girls for the few of you out there

To elaborate... Basically TVIS (Toyota Variable Induction System) is a series of butterflys built into the Intake manifold, between 2 runners per single cylinder (8 runner intake manifold... Honda has a similar system on the RSX's K20A1). At certain throttle positions, the sensors tell the engine whether or not to open the butterflys and allow for more airflow. The idea behind restricting the airflow from the intake is to create a better broader torque band. At WOT or hard throttle, the butterflys open completly for maximum air intake... All of the early model bluetops (large port head) had TVIS, while it was eliminated in the early 90's in the late model redtops (small port head). There is a very large difference between the 2 engines... nearly every internal component is different.
