Out of interest- say you get your stg 1 cams installed and possibly have to fork out for a zero header etc and you make an extra 20hp.

In the long run if you were to go FI- how much additional power are you able to make with the stage 1's over stock? So say Dan got a them installed, would he have made an extra 20?

I doubt stage 1 would make 20 bhp extra even after turboing.

Also bear in mind MWR provide a different spec of cam for use with FI engines, compared to NA.

Just and FYI. Don't want/need another 20hp.
There's a reason I now have leather seats.

Hahaha.
Just put a bowl in the footwell. And brake hard. It'll slide off the leather and into the bowl

I don't really know how to respond.

I mean...is this tried and tested?

Oh please, not another strip out. Seen on here too often.

If you only knew the irony of my lose weight statement, I was supposed to be adding even more this weekend but there's been a glitch in the supply matrix..[emoji23]

Must be four for a pound at Heron foods - that's good old Yorkshire economising for you

jvanzyl · July 10, 2018, 20:08

Ok here's another option.
Rebuilt 1ZZ... BUT using the cash that would have been thrown at stg 1 cams/lightened flywheel instead for forged components in preparation for FI at a later date if so chosen....
That way should you choose FI later you got no worries, and you could thrash the living daylights out of it up till that point in time anyway..

I don't know what the limit of a built supercharged (roots/Rotrex) would actually be...

shnazzle · July 10, 2018, 20:32

No more options!

You're assuming that there's going to be cash available in the next few years to throw another 3-4k at it. It MAY happen, but it's unlikely.
So, 1zz rebuild. Just had a great chat with Spit (Ste) and he has imparted some wisdom and advice I will follow

Basically it comes down to "proper prior planning prevents p1ss poor performance"

So, buy block, send it to get soda blasted and possibly lapped/skimmed/honed. (depending on costs).
Make sure all parts are bought and ready

There was a brand new 1zz on ebay the other day with all new ancillaries for £1200. Had come straight from toyota.

jvanzyl · July 11, 2018, 07:02

Yeah that was the guy in Nottingham. Toyota world's... Seems to focus on Celica stuff...

I reckon it'd be a good deal as you would get new ancillaries etc with it...
