Powerhouse Racing has a kit. I am converting my NA Supra to a T-78 Turbo with a motor swap. Pricey, but I'll get at least 800hp when I'm done.
Suprastore.com has a kit for the 2jzge. You must remember though you cant just buy a supra turbo kit for the 2jzgte and put it in a 2jzge. In case you dont know that already.

yea i know you cant take a kit for the 2jz gte and put in on the 2jz ge. i was just lookin for some simple single turbo kits for the NA motor. thanks guys....you all are alot nicer than the honda guys...i just get made fun of for driving a tiburon. even tho its faster than most of theirs.
Hey those tiburons make some bad ass rally cars, don't like the body styling too much, not bad but jes not good, thats mah opinion BUT the next generation of the tiburon concept is bad ass lookin, gotta give props to hyundai for that one

osofast...i don't want to create any heat, but i thought that the 2JZ-GE engine (which is whats in my SC3 for now :rolleyes: ;) ) could only handle about 500-600 horses. Do u have a dyno sheet or anything that u could post? Again, I'm not saying that u r lying or anything, I'm just saying what i know (which may be wrong)

i think stock it can handel 400.

but a fully built motor car handel almost 1100hp.

look at vinny ten's motor its a ge not a gte.
Oh ok..thanks for setting me straight:D
I made 602rwhp on a completely stock 2jzge (just 3mm headgasket to lower compression). I have a high stall converter/auto tranny also so there is a lot of driveline loss.... thats also why the dyno pull started so late.

F-Max makes a turbo kit for the NA Supra using a T04E Turbo. I think it is something like $4,500.
it must be nice to have sc300 single turbo but it's lots of work to do conversion. why not sell the sc and go pick up used supra twin turbo and drop a single setup. this will save you lots of money and install is straight foward.

just my$.02

1) Not everyone wants a Supra, your insurance company is gonna look at a TT supra a little differently than it will an SC300

2) Every poseur kid with a Greedy turbo kit on his Honda is gonna want to rev on you if you are in a Supra

3) The F&F crowd has driven the price of used TT Supras through the roof. Even one that's been beaten like a rented mule is in the $20K plus range and the N/A cars aren't far behind

4) You're looking at only a few grand difference in price between the single kit for a TT and a conversion kit for a N/A, the price difference in the cars will more than cover that *if you can do the work yourself*

In all honesty, if I could buy a MKIV TT in my price range I would buy the Supra to begin with. In the real world this isn't the case so here I go on the road to a turbo Lexus...

the money is not the issue here. its the available electronics if AEM ever comes out with those ECU's and it's only for the TT model a lot of owners are going to wish they had bought a TT model.

You are so right....

Plus, you can get seat heaters in an SC300!
