Thinking about supercharging gen 1 v6 what do i need???

[imhappy]

hi everyone... i was thinking about supercharging my car . it is currently stock except for a short ram intake. i want to boost it at 4psi the whole time and dont plan to move up to higher psi's

can i run 4 psi with stock injectors... stock fuel pump???

i plan on getting headers and full exhaust... then get a piggyback and tune it. i just want to get a little more power but be reliable also. thnx guys ; )

IIRC, there's plenty of threads that cover this

well i seen a couple of people doing the jims fuel mod... walbro fuel pump but they are at 5.5 psi

i seen a couple of people 4psi stock and i was wondering if that is safe???

[1gSE]

it depends on what condition the engine is in. Some people blow up on low boost with the TRD SC and some have made more power with a turbo, but eventually built their engines. No matter what you choose, tuning is the key.

::edit::


one of you SC'd guys wanna chime in? Isn't there someone with an s/c Camry that hammers it daily with minimal mods?

I ran upgraded spark plugs and jim's fuel mod at 4 psi. I can't definitively say it was necessary, but I'd rather be on the safe side.

is a upgraded fuel pump necessary??? i just changed my fuel pump but it wasnt a walbro 190... just oem. yea its good to be on the safe side : )

^The stock fuel pump is fine for 4psi. The ecu compensates well at that boost level. TRD most likely decided on that output so the s/c was a simple bolt-on product.

I'm at 4psi with jims fuel mod, stock fuel pump and colder spark plugs? idek the NGK bkre7-11 i think? I beat the crap out of my car and it's alive almost smells like its running rich.. or bad cat
