Toyota/Lexus 2GR-FE V6 Owners: How YOU Can Make MORE POWER On A Budget!:EP1

[@jonathanrivera283]

I have a 2019 camry with 2gr-fks and i put a muffler delete and sounds amazing and powerfull

[@christofs-a1834]

Damn son, that note change is mint! I would not be upset losing to that because I thought 'Oh it's just a Camry' haha

[@jasonruch3529]

😊 love this!!! I have a 22 highlander with the 2gr-fks n love it. Its 300hp n i really want more. Going to look into its exhaust choke points now!!! Thanks for sharing this build😊

[@Truenewyorker106]

That sounds sick cuz! Great job

[@WiseGuyzGarage]

@@Truenewyorker106 thanks mick!

Earned a subscriber. Was watching some of the Celica vids and now I want one.

[@WiseGuyzGarage]

@@moidaboi4015 thank you so much! I really appreciate it! Glad I could sway you in wanting one! lol

[@isthatjelo]

Been saving to get myself a v6 xv40, +1 subscribe to you man!

[@WiseGuyzGarage]

@@isthatjelo Thank you I really appreciate it!

[@Taco_bout_blue]

I don't even care how much horsepower it makes. I'm buying a y pipe solely just for the sound

[@WiseGuyzGarage]

The sound difference is fantastic!!!

[@KeithDelleva]

i have a gsv40 , will definitely try this mod

[@omarrod71]

Interesting. I'm on the opposite end of the build with the V6 camry (Bolt ons and ECU flashed). Curious to see what you find.

[@WiseGuyzGarage]

@@omarrod71 next go around will be to run it on the Dyno with the rest of the exhaust unbolted to see if that is the reason why it’s still at 250whp. I genuinely don’t think the stock headers are the restriction, but rather the rest of the exhaust is. The Dyno shop has been slammed and every time I go he’s doing me a favor, so I’ve just been waiting for the right time to go

[@omarrod71]

​​​@@WiseGuyzGarageyeah headers were the biggest pain in the butt to find that would work. I'm not certain from the y pipe back there will be much gain. But hey you're testing it so we're going to find out. I ended up having a exhaust shop gutt the cats on the stock headers. R9K has tunes for the platform if you get his handheld tuner or you can get the ECU reflashed by him. But some guys are going with VF Tuner.

[@mk5rob42]

Who makes a tune for the car?

[@WiseGuyzGarage]

I got this tuned from Frankenstein Motorworks. I know for certain he does not mess with ecus on cars that aren’t manual transmission swapped unfortunately. You can use an early rav4 ecu and swap 4 pins around for the vvt actuators!

[@mk5rob42]

@WiseGuyzGarage what about a standalone? Or that need to be manual swapped also?

[@WiseGuyzGarage]

@ same with that, hard to find one that will play nice with a u660

[@oguridocamry]

Did the Y mod on my v6 auto and noticed quite a bit dif wondered how much dif did u see on the dyno

[@WiseGuyzGarage]

@@oguridocamry We made it back from the Dyno, I’m just working on editing the video now’

[@oguridocamry]

@@WiseGuyzGarage awesome cant wait

[@erickim2025]

What's the hp increase with the exhaust only?

[@WiseGuyzGarage]

So far, we haven’t seen any true gains with the exhaust, it’s at around 250whp at the moment

[@DevinOzmon-w1u]

The red seats where'd you get them?

[@WiseGuyzGarage]

@@DevinOzmon-w1u they are super rare, they are from a Toyota Aurion TRD from Australia!

[@Celician83]

Aww, JCAP looking out for us Ramen eaters out here. Dyno numbers with the exhaust in the next one?

[@WiseGuyzGarage]

YUP. Every video will follow suit from the previous videos mods, then we will do the next mod, and so on :)

[@tinuthomas531]

That Camry is sick af. I love the exhaust note, it’s perfect and sounds amazing. I have an ES350 and while I don’t really want to modify it because I love the car as it is, that exhaust note is tempting. I have an MR2 as well, a Spyder, so I’m tryna spend all my money on that thing and keep my ES stock 😂

[@WiseGuyzGarage]

It sounds way better then stock LOL. That’s sick you have a mr2 as well! You have some incredibly good taste in cars haha!

[@2GR_Mateo]

Do it! it's very worth it imo I had a '09 ES350 that was muffler delete/tune/exhaust and made 261whp. I'm working on getting my '13 ES to a similar setup, currently have a K&N intake and it's a very noticeable gain in power and the sound is bliss. The ES350 is a total sleeper bc no one drives them fast!

[@dolanwae2718]

hey brotha, im just trying to maintain my 2gr. i think im starting to get piston slap from my vvti. happens quite frequent when starting for a second or 2. i plan to replace my oil pump line to all metal. any recommendations to lines and anything to build oil pressure?

[@WiseGuyzGarage]

@@dolanwae2718 I don’t believe VVT causes piston slap itself, piston slap happens when the skirt of the piston develops wear and wobbles in the bore. I would most definitely swap to the hard line man. The soft line is a ticking time bomb!!! I’m doing an experiment right now with my 2GR in my mr2 to run the vavloline restore and protect oil! It’s suppose to clean out the inside of the engine and help get rid of carbon deposits and things along that nature. I’m going to do an update video on it soon. Maybe if you want you can try that with me! I’ve heard you need to do oil changes sooner because the oil pulls so much debris out of the engine rapidly. Thanks for watching!

[@jonathanfigueroa5929]

Can you help me find the link to one

[@WiseGuyzGarage]

I would love to! but unfortunately, it comes with some bad news. The performance of the y pipe is very... Underwhelming. We tested it with sub-par results. So we are looking for another cheap option. The video with the results will be released soon! Thanks for watching

[@buya_pr]

You should do a cat delete!

[@WiseGuyzGarage]

@@buya_pr we MIGHT be doing that soon. That’s on the list! (Don’t tell anyone lol)

[@clu3less_felix632]

Do you know the link for it because i can’t find it

[@WiseGuyzGarage]

Yeah! your best bet is eBay.co.uk. I found mine on eBay for a 2012 Evora, and it was around 160 shipped. I did see the later y pipe that looks to flow better available on eBay, but they turn to the left and would pose to be more difficult to install because of that turn. I will be honest with you, I'd hold off for a bit. The results from that part swap are very underwhelming... Ill have the video out soon. It didn't seem to help that much. Hopefully we get better answers for this soon for you all! Thanks for watching!

[@blmb047]

Keep me from doing this to the wife’s RX350

[@WiseGuyzGarage]

I’m definitely going to tell you to Do it 🤣😈

[@001dman]

no Joseph. you cannot camry swap everything

[@WiseGuyzGarage]

@@001dman Technically we Evora swapped this time 🤣

[@001dman]

@@WiseGuyzGarage no. you man an evora a camry that being said i need to do a y pipe on my avalon... wana find a TRD catback for a camry too to fit to the car.. but those are rare.

[@WiseGuyzGarage]

@@001dman there’s some local to me I’ve been wanting to buy lol. The best evora y pipe is the S/400 one. They look to flow a lot more than this one. Literally anything is probably better than stock lmao
