my boosted 1zz

Wow very nice! And i like the eyelids. Got anymore pics? And what are ya runnin boost wise?

im at 10 lbs of boost...at about 5000 rpms...not to shabby for the lil 1zz..lol..

10lbs? is that it?

Well if the pistons weren't changed and the engine built up a little 10 lbs is the highest you would want to go

lies. vortex is running stock internals...up to 16psi...i think.

^ LOL @ lies... I havent heard from vortex in a while too... I didnt know max boost came at 5k RPMs. By the time you hit boost its time to shift again... Any numbers on the wheels?

ive ridden in his car. his boost hit before then.

nice, but I deff would need some numbers before I spend that much on a supercharger.

sorry liquidgsr if you didnt know s/c is only for 03+(9th gen) and i have heard when vortex used to go on vvti he was boosting about 14-16psi stock internal i guess its all about the tune,if it is.

stock internals but stage2 clutch...when i rode in his car i think he said he was only doing 10 on a stock clutch...still picked up really nice =]. the TRD one is designed to work on stock internals but as i recall it didnt push out 10psi...more like 7-8 or something from the parts cataloge i read

do you know if he had it tune?

yes it was tuned....at least im like 98% sure it was

That's the key to running a reliable NA turned FI car...

im running 10 lbs of boost because i have a 2.3 pulley on there....also...my engine is stock...with no water injection...so i dont wanna push it past 10/11 lbs of boost...trd made that blower for the 03/04 1zz's...but they made an adaptor plate so the 05-08 guys could run one with the help of engine management...If u do a lil research...u'll see that supercharged 1zz's with the stock 2.4 pulley hit 7-8-9 lbs of boost max...turbo's r a diff story..


blower, jp header, injen short ram, emanage blue, 2.25 custom QUIET exhaust (fart cans FTL) and alot of late night tuning = 10 lbs of 'safe' boost

very nice man , another corolla joining the boosted family.

I agree that tuning makes or breaks a build. Also, on the cluch part, the only downside to running a stock clutch is it will give in faster because of the extra load -- or so I think.

well...im an automagic...so the only mods i have to the tranny is a trans cooler...after winter i'll put in a high stall torque converter from monkeywrenchracing....

so far...(since march) i've had to trans problems at all...


**knocks on wood**

I don't know anything about auto tranny, but in mt, 10lbs of boost shouldnt do much damage...

its been smooth so far...alot of the people i know with boosted 1zz's and auto's havnt had any problems up to 10 pounds of boost...should be cool...

i got 300 hp on an auto tranny and it is doing fine (rebuilt) . dont let some people that think they know everything about performance tell you other wise.

Why would anyone pay all that money to boost an automatic? A manual swap should have been the first thing done.

an automatic would be better for him if he is drag racing. wouldnt have to worry about shifting.

because i have the MONEY to do it.

Then why not buy something else?

i did i got a 72 nova an 240sx with skyline motor an expedition on 24`s a civic a house . i dont have to buy what you think i should get .

buy me a 2zz

he would get a consistant e.t. but at the same time its boring it take away the fun of shifting gear to gear.

i`ll hook you up for Christmas.

that is true but thats why i got my 240sx .

sweet!
