Buy it straight from Denmark- wayyyyy cheaper. Think alternative automotive sell them for about £1k.

I know where to get one from but I don't have one.
Will probably go for a C30 94.
They are double dear.
First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

Not to sure but at least 242 bhp.
That's what the TRD 1MZ supercharger makes at 4 psi without any kind of cooling and running on stock ECU.

S54.
People make them work with 2GR so supercharger won't pose a problem.
Years ago it was thought that they wouldn't cope and everyone went with e153 for high torque applications but am confident it will be fine for my power level.
Some mechanical sympathy may be required.
We shall see.

Nothing is going to happen before February when my insurance runs out.

Sounds good to me. The K20 will be fully rebuilt by yours truly around October time and hopefully in the car around March/April.

I shall keep an eye on this thread   s:bounce: :bounce: s:bounce:

K20 will be great but it won't give you the torque that the V6 can.

With a K24 block I'll have enough torque. I have a Rotrex lying around, currently pondering whether that'll go on the 2zz or the K20   s:P :P s:P

I didnt realise how cheap a piggyback the DET3 is from Ecumaster.

£195 quid including MAP sensor terminated wires and VAT.
Seems stupid to even consider running a low boost stock ECU setup when you can get something for so little cash.

Here's another thing.
I was under the impression that forged rods and pistons for the 1mz where either impossible to come by mega money.
However it seems Pauter do forged 1mz rods $1400 which ain't cheap but MWR do a set for the 2GR for $995 which several sources suggest will fit on a 1mz no problems.
JE pistons will do a custom set for about $1000 which again isn't cheap but isn't mental either.
Also while I am in cloud Cuckoo land I was thinking about 6 speed gearboxes.
Woodsport fit the EA60 box from the Auris diesel and Lotus Evora to some of there 2gr swaps.
Lot of custom work involved comes in at over 3k.
Seems to me though that you could pick up a secondhand box from eBay for as little as 250 quid which must be over a 1k saving on a new box.
Looks like I have some new long term plans.
You can tell I am sitting indoors with bugger all to do  s:lol: :lol: s:lol:

It's just nice to know I won't need a lottery win.
