well if i got a 7mge motor and slaped all the stuff from my turbo settup will i get more power?

I've seen that swap done, the non turbo has a biggar throttle body than the turbo one, iono if it is faster or not. I'm guessin it is.

ya i saw that i was acutaly thinking of putting a na throtle body on my turbo. but this still dosnt answer my question. but thanks anyway

I'm just wondering what happened to all the supra owners? are there any supra god's or goddess, that would be able to help us noobies out? I guess they're all on vacation? hello?

your telling me i got to figure everything for myself

I hope no one here would fess up to being a know-it-all, if they do then they certainly do not. :) There aren't many people who stay and help here besides myself and flynMKIV. I'm sure I've said this before but why throw something together when Toyota did all the work for you? Anyway from a pure "bench racing" standpoint both should come out about even. Higher static compression will mean slightly more power off boost, and possably slightly quicker spool. Detonation could be a problem so you might have to run lower boost than a conventional lower compression turbo engine. Of coarse this is all how I imadgine it should work since I haven't personally turbocharged a 7MGE, take it with a grain of salt. :tongue:

thanks for that project supra! also a special thanks to flynmkIV for you help too. i just think it would be faster because you ever try to run a 7mgte with no boost. if you have notice you cant even gimp home. thats why i thought if you where to slap a turbo on a rebuild 7mge with the 7mge ecu i think it would be faster since 7mgte without a turbo dosnt even move.

That's not really a fair comparison, you're talking about a properly tuned 7MGE vs. a 7MGTE with a huge boost leak making it run like crap. If you were to actually remove the turbo components and basicly turn it into a low compression N/A the HP wouldn't drop a whole lot (compared to the GE).

realy why is that and how can i gimp home if that ever happend again to me

I'm getting ready to do what you guys are talking about. As far as the throttle bodies go.... I'd stick with the turbo one if you have a turbo. The smaller size will allow you to run more boost, right? I'm not sure if putting a turbo on a GE would make it faster than the GTE, my Haynes manual lists the cylinder pressure as being the same for both models. I went ahead and got a turbo supra with a junk motor. I'm looking at swapping throttle bodies, manifolds, ecu, injectors, and all that good stuff.... but I'm wondering about the cam shafts. I've heard of people taking n/a camshafts and putting it on the GTE, what does that do? (if anything)

Thank you for the kind words gentlemen. :)

No problem, giving credit where credit is due. :iceslolan Anyway as for the question above, that is exactly why I don't use Haynes or Chiltons manuals. Sure alot of the information is correct but there's also a large portion of it that is not. Use the TSRM instead and you will never go wrong. The N/A camshaft was only different from 86.5-88 and IIRC it was only the intake cam that was slightly different in duration. I don't recall the specs off hand but I know I have explained it once before and it has definetly been covered numerous times on supraforums so a quick search should bring it up. The throttle body will not change boost (unless you go to extremes) so stick with whichever one you have on hand, whichever one is closest to the size of the intercooler piping diameter probably. :smile:
