as long as you take care of the headgasket issue and torque everything down to spec on the 7M, it'll be pretty reliable with minor mods.


actually its the spec thats the problem. torque it more than spec and the head gasket holds. read up of supraforums.com

i have a MKIV 97 TT and i love it. changed over to a single turbo and gained 100 HP at the same boost level. im now making 500 on pump and 600 on race gas.


That's what I somewhat said. lol I should've mentioned non-stock specs. Stock, IIRC, was like 55lb/ft according to someone on SM. I think ideal is like 85lb/ft for the headbolts/studs according to the little paper that's included with ARP's headbolts/studs.

I went with a 1JZ swap on mine and ended up using ARP hardware anyways for the piece of mind since I had the head cleaned and the valve stem seals replaced.
