xscreamis200

Ouch Maybe had an encounter with a chased superbike or something. Seen some terrible crashes in those famous american highway crossings or whatever they are called.

It would be intresting to know what the supra 6sp manual was rated for then... Just for comparison. Since the supra has 330hp and the gearbox can run with up to 600-700hp.

I might be interested! Would the price be for the whole set?? What do you mean with: "Price wise Im waiting for reply.. but he said the pistons should be around $1000 and pistons "a couple of hundred dollars" "?? The pistons will be around 1000$ for a set I guess, but what will be a couple of hundred dollars?? =) Thx /marcus

Anyone know if there is any internals avaiblibe for the IS200? Or do you have to order custom made?? Cams, camshaft, heads etc... Is there anyone with a stroked is200???

What does those upgrades cost? Do you know where I could get upgraded pistons and rods?

When I spoke to a turbo installation company they said that I might go up to around 250hp without risking to blow the engine... I dont remember how many bar that would have been. I also spoke to tech at lexus stockholm who said that upgrading the pulley wouldent be a problem, but that I probably couldent go further than 250hp (I want to be able to go to 300+). He also said that the gearbox would be OK with around 330hp. So, if you want to go to 250+ you will probably have to upgrade the internals... TTE in germany might have a 300hp+ IS200, Im not sure about that or if it was just a rumor..

Have you upgraded any internals? How much HP do you belive you will get?

The subject says pretty much what Im thinking about. I currently drive a non modified IS200, and Im so darn tired of getting outraced by everyone. So, how much acceleration can I gain by supercharging my IS, without any other mods exept the SC? (If I wont come bellow 7sec 0-62mph, I wouldent want to spend very much money). What positive/negative differences are there between the supercharger and a turboconversion? (Any performance differences?) I know the main differeces since I already drive another supercharged car. Or should I just sell my IS, get a Honda S2000 for the money (0-62mph in 6.2), buy a vortech SC (4000$), and get 240hp + 100hp??? /Marcus
