More Power

[richie*is200]

As ye all probably know the is200 isnt really the best for low down power. i have big plans of doing a conversion of either the 2jzgte supra or the 1uzfe v8, if we ever get out of this recession that is :tsktsk: . but i was just wondering is there any other mods besides turbo/supercharging that i can do to give it more low down power. i already have a janspeed catback exhaust, and a k&n panel filter, and i want to get an induction kit and a decat, is there anything else that i could do, what mods have ye done. thanks.

not sure there's muich else to be honest apart from maybe fitting a camcon and adjusting it accordingly??

A K&N panel filter won't add BHP, but it may increase mpg slightly (1-2 mpg max).

I have a K&N panel filter and the only reason I have one is once you fit you don't need to replace it- its a lifetime unit which only needs a clean/recharge every 50k.

yea, thats why i got it, so i dont have to replace, im better off wit an induction kit tho.

An induction kit won't necessarily increase the bhp, though it'll certainly increase the noise. It could even reduce the bhp if the intake is routed over the exhaust manifold and thereby gets heated up.

The K&N filter probably does increase bhp by a couple, but you wouldn't notice it.

I would clean my K&N more often than every 50K if I were you, it'll still get clogged up with insects and other debris.

Your prob be no better off with the induction kit as Stevie says. the K&N panel filter will prob give the same increase.

what does this do?

You can adjust the way the VVT-i works, I believe. I don't have one myself so can't comment from personal experience.

aye the camcon adjusts the VVTi or something along those lines and i've heard reports from a couple people that if set up accordingly it can give more low down grunt. quite pricey though for what they are IMO....
