Okay guys, My rig is way past due for a rebuild,(just more of a reason to build what i want) and Ive been looking at LC engineering page dreaming about the turbo or supercharged kits.. Has anyone bought one? Which is better? Thoughts?or any other parts I may consider
94 4x4 22re 5spd

 

You would be way better off with a 3.4 swap. Ideal canidate.

Way more relaible.

 

Honestly ive owned a few 3.4's and im not the biggest fan. Ive had terrible luck with them

 

Well spend 8k and build a super duper turbo 22re that makes 250 hp.

You can make ash trays from melted pistons.

 

Or i could just buy a h beam with forged. Like I plan

 

All Im saying is the $/hp ratio on a 22r is not cost effective.

Hell toss an ls1 in.

 

3.4 then twin turbo, or supercharge

 

here's my setup.

 

I know and trust me id love a ls swap but keeping the 4wd would be interesting

 

about what power are you making? Im just tired of having to downshift 2 times to keep from losing speed up hill (I live in the mountains.)

 

Couldn't tell you exact numbers but around 200hp, I go up %4 grades all the time. This is all hand built by me and tuned.

 

Speaking of tune, how many lbs are you running? 300cc injectors? And what bottom end?

 

12.5lbs, stock 22RE bottom end, 9.4:1 CR 330cc injectors

Here's my truck doing stuff.

 

Did the stock Ecu learn the turbo set up or did you have any problems with mixture ratio?

 

Not running a stock ECU at all, I use a Microsquirt standalone.

 

Ahh, expensive? How hard is the change?







A few of my crawler 91 with land-cruiser Sas

 

About $600. Difficulty level is skill and knowledge depdent.

 

Bumped

 

I would really just suggest doing a 3rz swap for what you want, need, and skill.

 

Would it bolt up to a w56 in anyway?
