How to Boost 2jzge non vvti or vvti (2jzge-t na-t nat)

[@BongoisaPyro]

I'd also like to add some info for those who are on a BUDGET but would like to wake up your 2jz. You can boost it and not touch the ECU. This is achieved by getting a turbo kit and intercooler kit. Drill and tap the oil feed return line on the oil pan. And running a LOW 5 psi spring in your wastegate. It will run perfectly no issues just make sure you DO NOT go over 6 psi or else you will lean out and fuck up your engine! The ECU does not know what to do with boost past 6PSI so please keep this in mind when doing this! Remember this is for people who want to boost and wake up the 2jz and also do it on a budget! It will serve you well for a long time until you are ready to Upgrade the ECU and headgasket and rods once you get your money up. If you have any questions comment and I'll answer as best I can. Happy boosting!

[@sebsty01]

This will help so much thank you

[@LeoSong12]

Very helpful video. But one thing to mention, there is another option for those non-vvti guys like myself. You can do a budget build with the TT ecu mod and keep the distributor for the crank sensor and convert to vvti coils as well. Good for 400-500 hp depending what injector size on the stock 2JZ GTE non vvti TT ecu.

[@RabidJz]

My version of budget build rids you of the limitations of the stock ecu, i feel. It's a complete waste of time and money to purchase a limiter. But to each their own

[@K7f8c]

Nice video. btw Is there any info out there about whether you can convert a 1JZ GE vvti into turbo build? For example does the 1JZ GE vvti block have oil jets for the pistons? There seems to be very little information about converting 1JZ GE into NAT (of course using lower compression pistons and beefy rods etc that should be common knowledge but other details are hard to find)

[@EdsonHenry]

I appreciate the video man.! I'm curious about the intake manifold/TB setup though. Can you sent me a link to the sheet metal intake manifold that you were talking about? What head/Intake manifold/TB setup are you running. It doesn't look like a sheet metal intake. I want to do this on my VVTi setup thanks

[@RabidJz]

I am running a 1.5jz. So my head is a 1jz head that's the stock intake manifold and the tb is a stock 1jz non vvti throttle body. For the intake, go on ebay and type in 2jzge vvti intake manifold or non vvti

I'm planning on running mainly pump E85 and 93 if I'm not near a e85 pump. I know that will help with detonation issues that come with turboing a high compression engine. How do yall feel about that? I was even thinking about doing stock replacement GTE pistons from DNJ with the maxspeeding rods but still at the drawing board would love your opinion @RabidJz

[@relentlescobra6278]

For vvti, should I spend the extra 3 to 4 grand on upgrading the pistons, piston rods etc, all Brian Crower ofc, because I read some forums that it's to high of compression (roughly 11:1) and the sweet spot is abt 8.6:1

[@RabidJz]

Na-t is 10:1 and 8.6:1 compression is early 2000s energy. It's normal to run 10:1 or higher on boosted applications.

The bottom line is, can you have good success with a simple Turbo kit at waste gate running 7 psi. Stock everything, including computer. I understand some people have actually had great success running a simple 300 horsepower from this and the only reason they set up blew up was because they kept upping the waste gate without proper management. Do you yourself think this is feasible though?

My local pick a part has a VVti IS300, a non VVTI SC300 and non VVTI GS300. Trying to figure out the best way to go.

How'd you wire this into your s14? I seem wiring speciality harnesses for the gte but not ge. Did you splice the oem 2jzge harness into the s14???

[@RabidJz]

The only thing you need in order to make the harness work in any car, is power for coils, injectors, ecu and grounds. You just need to find those and you can build a connector to attach the engine harness to the chassis. Or you can use switches

[@jomarriveralebron6753]

Do you think its worth building the vvti and putting a ar5 trans or just swapping it for a 1jz GTE with the r154 transmission (4k) . cost wise because I just want like 600hp to the crank

Swap to the 1jz, it'll handle your power

No hate at all super cool build wish I knew what you did thus why I’m watching the video. I was figuring it would be a cheaper option for me to boost my 98 gs300 but after what you have said why not just buy a gte? Mine being a 98 it is practically plug and play wiring etc. but for cost it seems I could get everything I needed for around 4K. I know a stock gte isn’t running 35lbs of boost but I was just wondering thank you.

[@RabidJz]

Mine is a 240, not a gs300. So in that case, you're saving even more money. The difference is, you're paying 3k for the engine just to pay 1k-2k swapping the manifold and adding a big turbo. A stock gte will have no issues making the power I make, but neither would a stock non vvti ge. This video was the cheapest way to get to the goal. When you swap the block, you keep the head, INCLUDING, your harness. It remains pnp. All that extra money you'd spend on the gte you can spend on mods. 500 for a junkyard bottom 1-2k for turbo/mani setup 600 for injectors Right there's is the cost of just a gte.

Ok so the only thing I can tell he was wrong about. You do not need a return style fuel system to boost a car, you will create so much more work for yourself, I've seen guys running 600 hp off of the stock fuel rails what you will need is larger injectors to accommodate additional pressure. Now if you're aiming for 1000 hp yes you'll need a return fuel system setup. Also his swap is based around a standalone keep that in mind

[@RabidJz]

I suggest a return line for a proper fuel system. Fuel is the bloodline of your engine. Just because there's ways to do it with the stock rail doesn't mean you should. There's a reason gtes have return lines.

@@RabidJz I'm not disagreeing with you but not a lot of built is300s bother with a fuel system change because they hardly ever have problems

@@RabidJz I was curious about one thing, those don't look like the normal ge valve covers and it looks like you have an LS coil pack set up I'm currently on stock coils, and was looking for a way to switch to the gm coils but the only info I found is for the gte engines

I'm on aem smart coils, my car has a 1jzvvti head with a ge bottom end. I think the only option you have for covers are billet

@@RabidJz so no real options for coil packs?

how does your setup cost wise compare to buying an engine from an engine importer?

[@RabidJz]

Uh you'll save thousands

@@RabidJz could you give me a number of how much it cost you?

By using a standalone. I don't support the use of a safc
