 Some help with a 7M-GTE power up in a Mk2

Hi guys,
I am now the proud owner of a MA61 with a 7M-GTE + auto (  ) and will soon be getting it engineering approval, but it is dead stock - goes well though 
The engine is a '92 model, and has about 80,000km on it now. I have an intercooler that is much better (ARC core) that will replace the restrictive stock unit. From what I have been reading, re-torquing the head gasket to 72 ftlbs is the first thing to do, but what is the best order after that ?
What level of power will the std injectors hold up to ?
I guess the easiest is upgrading the turbo to get it highflowed or use a T04 - any help on what is best value and what A/r's work best ?
The overall aim will be to get up to 250 to 300kW at the rear wheels - should be enough 
Thanks in advance for your help
Oh yes, the auto will go as job No. 2 !!!

Hey, The stock computer will not handle much of a boost rise so you can either put a aftermarket or a piggyback computer in it.

Hiya BlackSupra,
Have read a bit about the Lexus AFM and 550cc injectors, but as it is USA based, we do things a bity different here. I am still redaing, but have the feeling it is not as easy or simple as fitting the Lexus AFM and plugging in some 540cc injectors (will those out of the Gen 3 3S-GTE which are 540cc units and also the same a 2JZ-GTE ones) fit ? 
I'm on arvo shift, so may have some more reading time tonight.
If this is as easy as it seems, I'll definitely run with it
BTW, got a Lexus AFM lying around ? Anyone ??? 
Any further tips, I'm all ears
Cheers
Michael B

Yeah, thats the one they're talking about. Perhaps you may be able to scam one from someone who has replaced their computer for one based on MAP/TPS.
See if HKSPete or someone like that has his...

Hi Greg,
The Gen III 3S-GTE's had 540cc injectors (violet top) that are apparently also fitted to 2JZ-GTE's. The common thing is to get these to fit to Gen II 3S-GTE's to get more grunt over the standard 440cc units.

bbaacchhyy: The JDM 2JZGTE uses 430cc side feed injectors.

Nope sorry, engine didn't come with it. But for what its worth your the 7th to ask ... even though you didn't ask ... yet.
My advice is to get a computer upgrade (piggyback/aftermarket) and max out the boost and/or duty cycle on the current injectors before looking for more juice.

Bugger HKS Pete, you beat me to it....
I'm considering the upgrade as it is neat, keeps the std wiring and doesn't need heaps of dyno work, and it works in well with all of the mods that I have planned after gaining rego approval.
I have a nice I/C, will aim for a hi-flowed CT26 (anyone got one for sale ????), and the W58 to be installed, and then of coourse will come the inevitable headgasket..
So does anyone have some injectors for sale (previous threads have mentioned low impedance Series IV RX7 Turbo units) Reg Riemer wants USD $645 for a set of the RC 550cc units + cables, but I'd prefer a local option if possible.
Lexus AFM anyone ?????

W58 to be installed
|
Considering your going to all the trouble and your expecting to get a fair wack of power would it not be wise to do it once do it right and stick an R154 in there?
As for the injectors basicly your boned for $1200 or option B to get an ecu that is on par with the learning ability is motec good bye $3000+ and counting, really when your comparing ecus the features of the motec wins hands down, unless you wana go for a cheaper item (and seeing you own a supra and not a girly celica your obviously not one to do things by half) basicly the 1uz-fe AFM, 550 injectors (RC Engineering ones are the best available and apparently offer a better idle) and the AFPR give the best outcome for the money and also looks compleately stock to the un-trained eye "Yes officer its compleately stock" and runs absoloutely smoothly just like toyota designed and according to the people i have spoken to even gives better mileage!

Hi Allan,
Thanks for the advice.
I'd love to install the R154 but have had conflicting reports on how well it actually fits ? I have feedback that it's a bit of a hammer job to waaaaayyy too bloody hard.
Has anyone put an R154 into a Mk2 ?  Most people seem to say that the W58 is fine ? 
The RC injectors from Reg are USD $640 which is about $950 in the aussie dollars. Hmmmmm
Cheers

All depends on your shifting habits. W58 might start struggling when your putting out 200+rwkw. But it also depends on which W58 your putting in. One from a JZA80 could last longer. Do a search on these as they've been covered many times before.

According to people who have actually done it, the R154 fits in a Mk2 with a small amount of hammering. Apparently you can jam it in the transmission tunnel with no mods at all, but a bit of hammering near the rear of the box is required to prevent it touching anywhere.
