Probably not going to happen , blitz may become a dealer option , as it stands the most these motors can take daily is 7psi max , so about 140hp. Good luck with your, SEARCH

That is very lame, i have heard good things about the blitz supercharger, but i was really hoping to get 160hp out of my box with the stock motor, with some suspension mods it would be a fun car to drive.

The TRD Turbo kit will produce 151HP at the flywheel. That is about all you are going to get without killing the engine. If you wanted big power, either replace the engine or buy a differnt car.

the Blitz only tops the 1NZ-FE to 120hp to the wheels.

I'm gonna wait for the TRD super/turbocharger. I really don't want to void my warrantee right away.

the motor is no a pos it just was not designed for these kinda mods and any mods that include sc or turbo will be conservative at best so the bottom end wont go bye bye
heck for 4k im shure you can replace the powerplant with someting more powerfull

thats lame, i dont know how they can sell a Supercharger for 3500 dollars when it only puts out 7psi, im sure oyu could build an electrical supercharger that will put out 7psi

Your probably one of those guys that likes the sound of a blow off valve...just buy a fake one...it'll save you the trouble

man i didnt realise this motor is such a peice of ____, i really wanted to keep the stock motor but still give it a little juice, i heard people blowing this motor with 7 psi? wtf is that ____.

pssst! I'll let you in on a secret...
Economy engines usually aren't spec'd from the factory to handle massive amounts of boost. If you were lookin' for a fast vehicle, I don't know how you wound up with a xB. :lalala:

AMEN ... If power was your objective then you should have bought something else.

AMEN ... If power was your objective then you should have bought something else.Negative. Most people buy cars for looks , with the intent of making a great looking car into a fast/good driving car , people dont take hideous design flaw cars that are fast , most buy good looking cars and make them fast or , as I do , Do what you can with what you've got.

its common sense

if the car starts with 105 HP it isnt gonna be fast

now if the motor was built like the OBDI SR20DE then we have something to work with. otherwise. this is not a speed car.

and keep the language to a more adult like thing here.
