The camry has better set up than the solara but the solara has more simple set up than the camry. However, so far i hear the camry runs very very well, no problem at all. but for me it seens have to really concern about the heating problem because there is no room

I think T66 turbo can pump out up to 600+HP. lots of supra have this single turbo kit instead the twin.

if the car's muscle can back it up, then let it be.

That wing will give no positive improvement to handling at speeds under 200 miles per hour.

It has no practical purpose.

There is no doubt in my mind his car will be fast as nuts... let it go.

Eh, I think that James' Solara (V6 TURBO) has a bit more of a sweeter set-up than the Camry. The Camry's engine bay looks a little too cluttered with the turbo in the place of the battery . . . anyways, a 1MZ-FE will never be able to push anywhere near 600+ HP . . . just not meant for it. Even if he "built the motor". Last I heard . . . James had problems with some tuning issues (among other things). I wouldn't doubt it being that he's running 12 psi on two blown O2 sensors. He's selling it too . . . if not sold already. Peace.

What a bunch of work and money. I'd put all that time together to make more money and that money spent on parts, all together, and get a M5.

Nobody has put more time and money into research and development of a turbo 1MZ than Tony. What he's done with his car is truly amazing. It doesn't really matter if his setup looks "sweeter", what really matters is what works. And for that my money is on the Camry. For those that don't know, that engine is "built" by Tony himself and his goal is 600+ hp.

Turbo magazine took the 1mz turbo/sc'd it and put it in an mr2 and it made over 1000 at the crank.

I have the magazine at home (I'm on the road now - again). They actually twin charged it. It has the supercharger running I think 9psi and they have a twin turbo setup. It's a real monster. The motor is totally built as you could imagine. -JoeB
