My Solara Lays Dormant For Now...

[yaddadaimsayin]

ahhh hahaha that's hella dope. make sure you post up a vid as soon as you get it all set up.



lol in norcal we refer to "south bay" as San Jose-ish area. But I guess LA makes sense too.

Very nice, that engine looks sick!

[Eye8Pussies]

I'm predicting 300whp or pretty close to there as well!


that is going to be a setup that's night and day from what you've got now

Looking Good! Can't wait to see the end result. Car is gonna haul ass. Lets just go ahead and spray a 100 shot into the charger, the motor can handle that plus a lot more.



later,

Converter stall speed is stock?

Using the original 1MZ cams?
With or without VVTi?

[CASTRO]

very nice! Better give me a ride when I'm down in the area next time lol

I may utilize spray later on, id like to change a few things around before i consider it
one of which is converting the car to run on a MAP sensor rather than a maf and an AEM EMS Standalone, so I may have full control over tuning. Perhaps running spray + meth is too much extra shi.t blowin into the charger though? Hahaha.

[Akfahad]

very nice Tracy!

hey josh
I wanna thank you again for answering all my maf questions
lol sorry if I was buggin you.

Not at all man...any time....

[DaZanY4002]

Whoa hoa hoa. Lol.

[panic]

Then cams are still timed at 110° intake, 112° exhaust, 111° LSA?

Had you considered any other positions, using the 1MZ cams?

For a cheap mod, the stock 3MZ exhaust cams might help: +12° more duration.

IMHO it's very unlikely that the stock 1MZ timing is optimal for all the work you're doing, and with the new pistons you should be able to move either cam around quite a bit without contact.

Giggidy giggidy, that is siiiick.

[panic]

I'm sure Mr_Chunkz appreciates all the support and enthusiasm, but exactly what about the engine's appearance causes so much leg wetting?

The important stuff isn't visible anywhere...

Cams really arent my concern now, as many high boost applications have ran with the stock cams just fine.
Take HKSBoost's monster camry for example.

This is a line a modification I may explore later. As for now, I just want to get my setup together and ready to roll.
