very cool but I'm Toyota dumb when it comes to all the info your posted. What's the power output on that thing? How does the TT V8 compare to a big T 6? I'm expecting it to have less lag and much better every day usable torque. How wrong am I? That's a great color you chose.

Thanks, no dyno numbers yet,shooting for around 900hp to the wheels,You're right on the money twin turbo is alot more responsive versus single T6 frame turbo

Default motor info

stefan

what is the toyota motor weight .
i say do what ever the hell you want.this forum is about sharing the hobby not telling people what to do unless they ask....thats my 2 cents.
just curious what the aprox engine weight is because i would imagine you have alot of weight savings with the toyota combo vs. any v8 .
do you have to run an aftermarket control system to run a toyota engine comb? or can your use a factory wiring/comp to install in whatever? im curious what guys go through to put these toyota motors in something.

thanks
tom

Tom,

thanks for your input,
Toyota 2JZ-GTE weighs roughly 539lbs,though I haven't weighed the Garrett GT47-88 ,but I'd say somewhere around 80-90lbs and T-6 manifold around 30-35lbs,

You don't have to run aftermarket engine management,there were many Supras with stock ECU's running 10's,and a few add-ons like HKS VPC/GCC/SAFC combo ,or piggy-back MAP ECU,E-Manage,some were running G-Force(stock ECU with fuel cut removed,rev-limiter removed,e.t.c.) ,but eversince AEM came out with AEM EMS plug & play (so they say )engine management which completely eliminates stock ECU and any piggy-backs,it virtually has endless tunning settings with simple laptop plug in, from timing to fuel to boost and nitrous adjustments in any gear at any RPM's ,most guys started going that route,sure there was Motek and others, but they were and still are more complicated and alot more expensive ,to go with AEM EMS costs closeto $4k may be more or less depending on who's installing and tunning ,it's worth every penny when you have tens of thousands of dollars in a built motor and last thing you want is to rely on stock ECU with limited tunning
