cool build!

Hi man, the issue wasn't the triggering but the ignition modules. Haltech replaced them with built in ignitor coils and worked like a charm.

Now I am tuning the engine myself and till now I done mapping of the engine with 9psi boost and 5000rpm [with AFR LOW 14 / HI 10.5 (boost) ]. This week I am preparing the car for the final tune which is the 2ZZ intake. If all goes fine, I have to retune the engine for the larger o/d of the 2ZZ intake Throttle Body (70mm) and runners

sweet, love that haltec software i bet. It is really nice. That 70mm throttle body should open up a lot of power.

After my experience with this unit, I can say it is worth the money and since now I seen no issues with it. Solid rock ecu, full of description on all option tabs ( a must for beginners ) and reliable performance. Also to consider that it is good for almost any engine and features latest cam control technology + stock sensor compatability.

I am no expert on tuning, and with this unit I was capable to tune a reliable 9psi boost till 5000rpm (at least for now :) )

I am hoping better response with this intake. Let's be straight, If any would tell you what do you prefer between a custom intake or a Toyota proven one, I vote for Toyota and here it is!

I hope it will be ready for a christmas present to my self

Can you explained to me what is your logic on using a manifold from an engine that is 1.8 liters & revs 8000rpm on a 1.5 liter that revs 6300rpm? Are you aware that intake manifolds are designed to work within a specific RPM range? I dont get why you would think that the factory manifold from the 2ZZ would be a manifold than a custom one engineered to work for a specific engine combination.

1. I am no expert in intake manifolds but I am sure this manifold will definetly show more gains than the stock one. Since it was used on a 1.8L engine which revs 8000rpm it will surely be a plus with a 1.5L turbo engine.

2. I am sure it is the case, but who cares now that I am turbocharged. The stock intake wasn't designed to be used with forced induction.

3. The only answer for this is the price. The 2ZZ manifold + 2ZZ TB cost me half or lower than a quoted custom intake manifold only!

1)Again you yourself admit no expertise on intake manifolds. So your logic makes no sense. You are going to waste your time & money.
2)You are correct about the stock manifold, but no one has reached the max limits of it. And the 2zz was also never designed for boost.
3)You will never get anywhere by cutting corners, especially price. Cheaper is never better. There are many reasons custom intake manifold are expensive.

Well, the way you're giving advice you seem to be an expert on intakes manifolds. So how would you go about improving forced airflow without spending 5 grand on design and testing until you have the best possible flow you can have?
