Turbo-ing a Toyota I-4
I don't know where this thread should go, so I'll just put it here. I'm looking at selling my Camry wagon and buying another one and turbo charging it. The one I'm looking at has the 2.0L inline 4 with no mods to it now.I know nobody makes a "kit" for the car, so I'll need to gather all the components myself. Does anyone out there have any advice for me? Where should I go for parts? I'll be able to do the labor myself.

Re: Turbo-ing a Toyota I-4
What engine does it come with?

you can probably get a kit for the engine, even if the car isn't listed.

I was looking around and saw a Camry Wagon for sale with a V6 also. With the inline 4, I could turbo it, but with the V6, I could go twin turbo. I haven't looked at kits myself, but I had a friend of mine who's pretty knowledgeble look and he said nobody had a kit for the inline 4 or V6.

Re: Turbo-ing a Toyota I-4
there is no advantage to going twin turbo, I would keep it a single turbo either way. But you're going to be fabricating most of the components

Come one, don't try and tell me you've never wanted to blow past 350Zs on the freeway.

So you can see why I want to turbo my wagon? Good.

Re: Turbo-ing a Toyota I-4
Buy a copy of Bell's MAXIMUM BOOST if you don't have it yet. Good info on fabbing stuff up if you can't find a kit.
