You don't need a turbo that spools at 7k to make 600hp.
In an earlier post, I specified a bigger set of sequential twins...which means that boost would begin to hit by about 3k.
7k is a walk in the park for the 2jz-gte ... many apu mkiv owners (myself included) spin it past 8500 regularly (some as high as 10K), with no issues. You may already know that an I6 is inherently balanced (unlike a v8 configuration engine).
Among all of the things the 2jz-gte has been criticized for (unjustly for the most part, imo), a lack of reliability has never been one of them.

NB: Please consider posting any help requests in a new thread instead of asking me for help privately. About 99.9+% of the time, private help requests end up covering great information that could be very valuable to other forum members. If you have a good reason for needing the help request to be private, I'll consider it. If not, then why not give everyone else the opportunity to pitch in too, and/or learn from the information? Remember, there's no such thing as a dumb question. We're all here to help within this family of Supra owners.
