Hey all.

 

ummm been discussing what to do to my 7K when it comes....

and the general consensus is that supercharging will be better?

now i've read that 7K's don't like revving?

is this because of hydrolic lifters?

thoghts anyone?

turbo or SC?

They have a long stroke which generally means less revs, More torque down low.

 

Supercharge it.

Ok sweet! thought as much.....

how muchish am i looking at?

i don know wats involved in SC n a motor so i don know what extra bit you need and what the best typr of set up is!

This will be for EFI

Custom supercharger brackets

Intercooler.

Piping.

Silicon joints.

After market ECU.

Will probably need better injectors.

Tuning.

 

Lots more bits but i haven't done it before so i don't know what exactly is needed. Supercharged 7k would have some nuts.

get a wild cam grind, bigger exhaust valves, get the exhaust flowing big pipes etc..

There's a supercharged 7K in a publica ute, shown in the Rides & Projects section. Might give you some inspiration

wow.

doesn't look too hard...

a bit easier than turbo i think.

expensive though!

injectors wouldn't be cheap

could find second hand SC and IC.

then silicone hoses and stuff would be pricey?

2nd hand SC and IC come by every few months, same with efi gear. silicone hose joins are fair cheap too. there's injectors for sale regularly around the traps too.

ive seen a few sc12 going around people usally sell them after they do there 4agte conversion

Injectors are easy to find and fit. I got 6x 315cc (7mge) ones for $150!

 

Here's a good site for toyota injector info.....

Have a read of the turbo 4k thread in engine conversions forum, there's a lot of applicable info there.

 

For a 7k, I reckon you'd be better off with a stock cam and SC. Will work much better in the torque range, rather than power. That's exactly what I have planned for my *one day* 4x4. :hmm:

Soooo by using that info your injectors total can

handle around 250hp?

which is around about what?? in KW?

would this be any good?

Next best link I've used when working out what injectors to use.....

so 250hp = 186kw.......that'll do me for a little while!! ;)

 

Oh btw, try and get a high ohm injector aswell. The 13.8ohms ones will be easier to setup in the ECU.

Ok a mate has just offered me two 1GGTE twin turbs for 1700.

one has blown rings and the other has a stuffed head gasket!

Should i go with this easier conversion?

or with the 1GGTE?

how much would there be involved in the 1GGTE conversion?
