NA supra transformation project

yota_head · 06-26-2007, 10:02 PM

I have an 88 supra, automatic with a 7mge. I would like to end up with about 400 rwhp, obviously gonna need to turbocharge it to do that.
Has anyone here tried megasquirt2 on their supra? I know a guy who is doing megasquirt on his skyline locally so he can help me with the unit, but he doesnt know supras too well, and being a nissan guy doesnt really want to. Will megasquirt work with my 7mge distributor? I would like to use my distributor, and possibly upgrade my ignitor, or is this simply not going to work with MS and my horsepower goals.
Most parts I am going to get from ebay including:
-2.5" hard pipe kit
-24x12x3 intercooler
-full 3" exhaust(i will make the exhaust)
what turbo will give me an easy 400rwhp but will give me some room to grow one day? I want a fast spooling turbo.
I had also previously thought of using my stock ECU, but methanl/water injection to control timing and detonation. Any input?
Thanks
mike

bore, stroke, forged pistons, upgrade ecu ect... you might wanna get an r154 transmission i dont think a340e or even w58 can handle 400 hp, better yet just swap it for a 7mgte or 1jzgte, a lot more potential

Yes. Your money is spent more wisely buying the turbo'd engine and rebuilding it and installing it than trying to go na/t. It's going to cost you the same.

Then you don't end up with some frankenstien'd pos.
