If you go big single turbo your looking at 6000, the fuel system is about 2000 yeah, and exhaust can range alot between 800-1400, maybe even more. As for the rest its relatively cheap, besides an intercooler I guess you can get pretty expensive if your planning on running 1000+whp. Also I'd probably get a new clutch, I don't think the stock ones rated for that, haha.. I'm changing mine once I reach 600whp. And unless your planning on putting a stroker kit in it and spending 11000 your fine for dolla.

Actually you can get a relatively large single setup for more like $4,500 (not $6K). "The rest" of it is actually not cheap at all - for example an aftermarket ecu setup will cost about $2500. You'll need wider-than-oem rear rims to handle a single turbo, which is another $3K-$6K. The list goes on and on.

Your stock clutch won't handle anywhere near 600whp. Plan on replacing it at the 400whp level. Above 600whp or so you'll need a dual-plate clutch. Above approximately 800whp you'll probably need a triple-plate clutch.

"Build it up a little"??? Whatever for? It'll handle 1000hp bone-stock. How much horsepower do you want to make??? :confused:

The oem twin turbo set up is sequential. Two smaller sequential turbos is "better" because it spools up quicker than one bigger turbo. HOWEVER, a single turbo setup is bigger because you have more choices of much larger turbos. There are aftermarket (large) twin setups, but they're mostly parallel (not sequential), so they don't spool up any faster than a single. Also, the aftermarket (large) twin turbo setup is more expensive than a large single turbo kit.

I was just meaning like new pistons and little stuff like that do you know where i could get a 2jz engine and tranny?

Ok so when i get the motor I should look to get smaller turbos for the twin turbo setup? what brand or what kind of turbos are good for the smaller twin turbo setup?

ROFL pistons aren't "little stuff"! This is a 1000hp-capable 3L engine out of a $50K gt sportscar! Bearing tolerances are measured in hundred thousandths of an inch. Unfortunately, your neighbor's cousin bubba really doesn't have the machining tools or the skills needed to build a 2jz-gte.

If Toyota's oem 2jz-gte pistons aren't strong enough for you, just how much horsepower are you planning to make???

Regarding your question, Toyota sells 2jz-gte engines and v160 trannies.

the oem twin turbo setup already comes with smaller turbos. The brand is Toyota.:)

Big and mid-sized single turbo kits have several other brands to choose from.
