Another 2K for cams (real cams not some faggy 'move the power curve around' cams), a shim under bucket conversion with decent valve springs, some decent aftermarket setup to run this crazy thing, a bit of porting, a big wad of fabricating, serious exhaust...I'm counting 12K so far! That said I'd have a permanent chubby..... Remember, I said twin throttle bodies...Yes the ITBs would cost big $ but the twin-setup I'm thinking of (as used by Bullet in their later incarnations) is made from a machined 1UZ item, produces similar power to the ITB setup (so I'm told) with less noise, and obviously costs a lot less... As for cams...BIG $$$. (I hadn't even really considered going to that extent - primarily due to cost!) Also, I'm reasonably certain the Autronic will run most things I can throw at it. (So, at least in my case, that expense is mitigated... ) Anyway, having said all that: Yes, I agree that the turbo'd route is ultimately cheaper bang for buck. I also agree with people like yourself that like the "well-engineered, get everything out of it you can" route... Oh, and when I win the Lotto, I'll do exactly as you've outlined above with the 1UZ...then look out! [Report message to a moderator]
