you cant compare power to PSI! prime example when i was on my stock twins at 15psi i was making about 375 HP, as soon as i went to a single turbo at 15psi i was making over 500HP. its apples and oranges
whatever swap you do end up using, please please post tons of pictures and lots of details on the wiring. -------------------- 2001 Celica GT-S Turbo

PSI is relevant to turbo efficiency as well. ****ty turbo at 8psi may make 330hp while a great turbo at 8psy may make 425. also depends on your intercooler efficiency. lower temp air at the same volume and pressure will have more mass/density/OXYGEN. but i was just posting that as a quick example that the 3vzFE makes similar power to the 2jz. can a fully build 3vz make ungodly power like a 2jz?? possibly. will take more $$$ as there are less off the shelf parts. -------------------- QUOTE "And, as always, your friendship, help, and dedication to the advancement of Texas Celica dominance is GREATLY appreciated.
