It begs the question why?
You won't need 1000hp on the street.
Is it just for show?

There's no need trust me. My TT 1UZ with quite large turbos (KKK K27 compressors, K26 turbines) has more torque than i can use off the line, a SC would just mean more wheelspin. Being hi comp the turbos spool up fast and even when no boost is registering the vol eff is so improved that the UZ is producing good numbers. Not like they are short of torque even in naturally aspirated form.
As for doing it, yes it's quite straight forward but it would be an exercise of curiosity only and would give no performance gain over a well setup turbo setup.

As Justen said dude, it's seriously not going to be needing it.

its not going to be for on the road, but i could get it regestered if i wanted, but i just thought of it because i havnt heard of anyone trying it, and i thought well i might just be different and try something new!! and to prove that T-18's arnt just pissy little hatchbacks!!! it probably is a stupid idea but i just want something different to do!!

You are going to be fighting for traction with a stock 1uz in a T18, let alone >600hp.
I take it a 9" and tubs are planned?
Methinks you should stop the dreamtime.

i understand the fact that i'll be fighting for traction, thats y i have other people here to help me with it that have bin mechanics for 30 years, and have dealt with stuff like this!! but yes ur right it was most probably stupid of me for even thinking of doing it!! but hey 10 points for trying!!

hmmm so what if it sucks traction wise, he can turn it into a drifter and take on robbie bulger or just enter burnout comps

If you want to be real different you could also twin aftercool it by using an air to air aftercooler and a water to air aftercooler.

I'd say it would be shit for drifting but would make up for it in a burnout comp if you're that way inclined.
I have a mag (probably fast fours or something) that did a tech article on the 1uzfe engine. it was interesting. They broke it down into 'stages' like gran tourismo or something lol
but anyways stage one was like exhaust/cai
then in stage 2 and 3 i think they talked about cams and porting etc etc then stage four was like forget everything in the last 3 stages and strap on 2 turbos.
If you did want more out of the 1uzfe i'd say twin turbos would be good $/power upgrade.

hey mate,
a twin turbo 1uz is an excellent idea, their a great engine, get someone to knock up some manifolds, get a couple of decent turbos, i would think not much bigger than t25`s, and a decent computer, and the thing will be a ball tearer, although a 1jz is a much cheaper alternative, insane power handling capability for little money
just my 2 cents

Fuck em all man, i say do it!
Too many people are quick to tell you not to do it! Originality comes at a price and if you are willing to pay the cost then you have my respect.

u willneed a budget of 10000 to 15000 i recon
make sure it will be legal
are tassielaws diff to sydney laws
beware of all alloy engines used for burnouts
they get hot much quicker and cannot dissipate heat as quick as an iron block
but im not sure how a 1uz goes in a burnout
i can do one for about 30 secs but never tried anbyhting more
i think in a tight engine bay and depending on rad size u might have probs
but it has been done afew times
its nothin knew to most people to twin turbocharge a 1uz

Yes, they will get hot quicker from their surroundings, but last time I checked, alloy owns steel in terms of conducting and dissipating heat.

yes but if its an old issue i don't think they'd really care, if someone posted all the pages from a current issue then they would, i mean how else are you supposed to see it, some times they won't even have back issue so you can't take that avenue.

well if its gunna be that much all i need is my brother, he has the money, and F*#k loads of it too.
Dunno how much different laws in tassie are to sydney, i dont think they are much different, was over there in march, the only think that i see thats different is the provisional system!!, i recon that ones fucked up! but every system is fucked up somwere along the line!
d/w it will be legal, as my favorite motto goes!! Every Things Legal Till Ya Get Cought!!, and the other thing is cops or traffic inspectors dont even bother about looking at the comlience plates and stuff! and i can get anything registered easy!!! as long as it hasnt gone over board!!
cause we registered a chop top falcon for registered, with weilded doors! and weilded doors a ilegal!
but back to were i was Yeah i think the laws are the same!

|
Yes this is correct!
Thermal conductivity of aluminium alloys vary from 125 to 75 W/mK where as cast irons and steel vary from 30 to 50 W/mK. This means aluminium alloys will absorb heat and dissipate heat quicker or more easily than cast iron/steels.

this engine has proven itself to be very compatable in forced induction, so much so that it even seems to handle it better than some engines designed for it.

I have a feeling those turbos are just sitting in the engine bay, not actually attached. There's no way 2.0 litres of engine could spool each of those monsters!

Car is in the states and the right Turbo is actually mounted and the left one is just sitting there
When this car was running a 2J it put down around 1500 RWHP
