96 5vz xcab 4x4 TACO TURBO BUILD

Hmm just found 8 400cc's for a lexus 1UZ but apparently they are interchangeable plus i get two backups! lol $360 for that set

 

I've probably spent the least out of anyone on tacomaworld to boost my truck. Im only using like $2000 on my truck right now of what I bought for this project.
$400 used garret turbo
$200 fabricated intake parts
$600 headers
$200 cat, muffler and pipe(s) w/ o2 bungs
$180 wastegate
$250 on all the miscellaneous bolts, oil lines, fittings, clamps, gaskets, check valves ect...
$150 glowshift wideband AFR gauge
$25 harbor freight boost gauge.
Of course I have $1000+ worth of crap I didn't use (or haven't used yet) in a box in the garage

 

If they are flow tested and cleaned then I would snag those up in a heartbeat.
400cc injectors are going to limit you to about 350 hp at maximum duty cycle... maybe a little more.
EDIT: just calculated it and 300 HP is the highest recommended power you should get out of 400cc injectors.
500cc will get you up to about 400 HP at the crank.

 

Lol maybe i should find some 500's then because i want at least 300 to the wheels if i can i think a stock block can handle that.

 

Oh yeah... the stock block and heads can handle 350 to the wheels all day if it's tuned right and cooled right.

lol idk if these are legit but dang this seems like a good deal

 

Never heard of that brand

 

Hmm so i just watched what they do to their injectors and how they clean and test them and they seem legit i just don't know if i should wait...

 

Wait for what?

 

oops lol i made a thread asking these questions somewhere else and i said i was gonna wait till around christmas to do this forgot this was a different thread XD.

 

Oh lol.

 

My truck is runnin again yay! The timing was 45 degrees advanced (like wtf?). Surprised it even made it to the mechanics house lol.
The last guy who touched the timing belt stripped the crap out of the hydraulic tensioner, so that sucker was a little cock-eyed. Scary stuff

 

Lol thats pretty far off lmao. Hey so are you gonna run your MAF before or after the bov?

 

No BOV for me... but it's supposed to go before the MAF so that the air that has already been measured can't escape anywhere and cause the truck to run rich

 

How much power can you make from stock injectors?

 

Cool thanks man, i just wanna know what to do before i get all the stuff together.

 

Maybe 200 to the wheels maybe after that it starts to lean really badly i'm gonna go with 550cc injectors

 

Isn't it alot harder to tune with bigger injectors? If I went turbo I just was going to do idk like 5-8 lbs of boost, run a turbo a little bit on the small side. Just would want something reliable with not quite as many headaches as alot of these guys are running into. Don't want tons of power, or need it. But I like the ability a turbo has to make power, and its more efficient.

 

Well i hear that its harder but it just depends on what you consider hard...I mean you could do 380cc's and replace all your primarys that's the better idea instead of adding 6 extra ones and you could probably get away with that, but you need to use an injector calculator to make sure the ones you pick don't reach more than 80% of there duty cycle. Here's a calculator- https://www.rceng.com/technical.aspx#Fuel_Injector_Worksheet_

 

Actually they can handle up to about 260 WHP but that is way over 80% duty cycle. I bet I'm right in between 240 and 250 with 5 psi. I don't lean out at all whatsoever at 5psi.
