Is this new or old?

I need Verification Please!

Now we come to the juicy bits. The 1.5 16 valve DOHC VVT-i 1NZ-FE engine has been turbocharged with light boost pressure as the compression ratio of the engine is still quite high for a turbo-ed engine at 10.5:1. Normal for a bolt-on setup. The ECU has been upgraded to detect boost and adjust air-fuel appropriately.

This results in 143 horsepower at 6400rpm and 196Nm of torque at 4400rpm. The gearbox is a 5-speed close ratio gearbox for maximum acceleration. This takes the car from 0-100km/h in 8.1 seconds. The car does the 400meter sprint at 15.9 seconds.

This is real old, Thomas has Video of a Turbo Vios from WAY back when

yeah... standard TRD turbo kit for 1NZ-FE, which would cost a little upward of US$4000 if I were to get them to do it. 4K for just 50% horsepower extra's not exactly stellar :tongue:

$4000 compared to... how much was a 2zz swap?

[eTiMaGo]

2ZZ swap's a little pricier, around $5000. But you do get 190hp from an engine that is running in spec, as well as the close ratio 6-speed gearbox :thumbsup:

i'd love to see the 2zz swap over here.
