Is this a 1jz-gte soarer or a 1g-gte soarer? In the case of the 1j soarer you will be able to drive the car around without ever tuning it if that is all the mods your doing. As far as advancing the timing on a 1j? You will need an after market unit to do this, and if you're going to buy an safc as well you might as well look at a power fc. As for the limit of the stock turbos on a 1j ,most people will agree on about 230rwkw at 14 psi. [Updated on: Mon, 09 May 2005 04:13] [Report message to a moderator]

you said on one thread you had an AFR of 12.6 down to 10???? if that's the case your running SHIT LOADS lean... 14.7 is perfect (stoicheometric value) my 18rc runs 14.7 on idle... after that it goes up from poor manifold vacuum (rich)... [Report message to a moderator]

I would just get the SAFC and lean it out to about 12:1 and probably wouldnt bother with ignition. Does the 1g have knock sensors? [Report message to a moderator]
