1jz-gte non-vvti single turbo conversion

[zarathir]

hello!

need some help regarding on single turbo conversion for a non-vvti 1jz-gte.

1) currently, everything is standard with the engine.

2) ct12a turbines are helpless already. thought of servicing but came to think of it on the long run, macam best je tukar single turbo system terus

3) ok, my expectation from a single turbo system:
- i dont have to think about the costly ceramic problem
- at the very least, perform like a twin ct12a
- project under strict budget skit

4) what do i need to spend for a standard single turbo modification on a standard setup engine and runs slightly better or more than the normal twin ct12a?

please help...

I'm also curious what other things need to change if convert to single turbine? What can we expect from this kind of conversion?
Better power? FC?
Do we need to change injectors? Need to retune?
Basically, i still prefer to maintain the standard engine but just convert to single turbo. Is it alot of work to do?

1) turbo
2) banana
3) wastegate
4) piggyback
5) exhaust
6) boost sensor
7) boost controller
8) fuel pump
9) injector
10) fuel regulator
11) bigger capacity intercooler
12) replace all hose clips
13) etc...etc......

Looks like quite a lot to do. Not too sure whether it's really worthwhile as i'm not really going for big horses but more for daily streetable use with more oomphh.
Thanks bro jo-e34!

for basic single turbo upgrade, u can still use stock clutch, stock engine management (but with piggyback).

just buy banana+turbo+wastegate. can use those taiwan banana no prob. wastegate advisable to buy original. lots of turbo options for moderate power increase, do get opinion from ur mechanic or turbo specialist.

advisable to get 2jz injectors (not so expensive and plug n play) so that there are more safety margin. boost controller can use cheapo manual boost controller first.

the rest (installation + tuning), u can leave to ur mechanic + tuner.

normal....minor mods....umm.....budget2 spend about 3k....with its standard twin turbos setup,
piggy back,boost controller,fuel pump,injector u can achieve 300whp or so......with a manual.....tranny....easy job......
