is this possible??

They exist... just google "7mge stroker kit" (or "7mgte stroker kit" if you have a turbo).. here's the first one I found, sure there's some cheaper...

however, from the spec's mentioned, I'd imagine you'll want to up your injectors and possibly your fuel pump and rails (but not sure bout that). However, if that's done in part of the kit, no worries.. Good luck, I'd love to get that much power out of my supra... atm, I think I'm gettin somewhere around 180-200hp :\.. but she's in no condition to dyno, still pretty much stock with quite a bit of sluggishness..

The gains are pathetic and the MKIII has long enough of a stroke as it is. It's a complete waste of money.

From everything I've seen posted on all the various fourms that N/A generally comes in between the upper 140's and the lower 160's (at the wheels). Some people post results that are wildly higher, but almost all of them were tested using brands of dynos which are agreed by the masses to always report high and over optimistic results including DynoJet. In all actuality ALL dynos vary from eachother (even the same brand and model), they can ALL be skewed (the operator has a number of calibration adjustments available to him and the shop stands to make more money from you if you think every little change you make gets you big enough gains to merit yet another dyno run) and so on. The only way that dynos are reliable is if you ALWAYS use the same one; they don't change the software version; and you always have them run with NO corrections on.... you'll be thoroughly upset at the results, but the next time you dyno there you'll have a much more realistic idea of what gaind were made. Also, keep in mind that a car's measured output can vary by 10RWHP or so from one run to the next.

I dynod at 164RWHP on a very healthy N/A running a 3.5"GM MAF. This was untuned and running excessively rich. I don't think I would have done much better with a tighter tune though.

A guy I know pretty well in TN named Alex is running a fully built 7M-GE. .50 over forged pistons, BIG stroker kit, MAFT Pro running S/D (I helped him set it up, that's how we met... he's only the second person to get it running on a N/A), lightweight and balanced forged and cryod connecting rods, lightweight and balanced and bladed crank..... and so on. I think he's putting down 220, maybe as high as 240 at the wheels... that's pathetic given the total investment. He is happy with it though, so that's what matters.

wow, that is pretty pricey per hp gained... I think I'd rather just get a JDM 7mgte swap and start with that much power instead of ending with it.. however, it sounds very nice and something to take pride in.. and for that, I'm still envious and can't wait to hopefully have a mk3 as nice..

what ways would you achieve a so called "45" HP gain??
and cheaper?

Krem · 11-12-2009, 05:13 PM

I don't know about 45 hp... I know NA's don't gain much more HP, at least not in comparison to a turbo... have you tried the cold air intake? cat back exhaust, maybe headers? These are what I've been looking at for my NA... but mainly cause I'm not sure of further upgrades for a smaller budget.

When talking "cold air intake" let's clarify and add that a short pipe with a big fat cone filter in the engine bay is NOT beneficial... not unless you build a nice big box around the filter and feed the box air from outside the engine bay.

Also, while we're at it I'll add that the removal of the Helmholtz resonator is not beneficial. The resonator is not designed in such a way that it impairs the flow or air through the intake... in fact it helps it. For the same reason that it muffles sound it smooths the airflow: it eliminates turbulence.

Cat back, headers, different intake do make a difference, cams, tuning, porting and polishing make an even bigger one. Hitting 200 - 220 at the wheels with these mods shouldn't be too difficult, but getting much beyond that you're looking at more and more expensive engine work. My recommendation is to put together a list of mods which you'll be able to use on a turbo'd engine in the future, even if they don't make a big difference on your N/A.

damn, I guess I need to put a ram scoop on my front end then.. cause no way am I dropping the pipe to pull air from the bottom of the car... Las Vegas is not known for getting much rain, but it is known for flooding almost any time it does rain.. I always thought the alum. piping helped.. but figured the cone wasn't anything more than an air filter.. sad to hear there's no added benefit other than the throaty sound made.. well, till I get a ram scoop...
