heres the thing i havent seen a turbo kit for the 7m-ge, but i have found for the 2jz-ge, but will that kit fit the 7m or are they very differnt. i dont want to swap motors because i have a lot of work done to this one.

Someone just posted a question almost exactly like this in the General questions section.

The M and J series engines are completely different and, to quote Shaeff: "very few parts (if any) are interchangable."

I've never seen a turbo kit for the GE, mainly because it is a LOT cheaper to just swap in a GTE.

In short: NO

The 7M-GE doesn't have anywhere that you could piggyback the turbo's oil return like the 2JZ-GE. The manifold is different and the downpipe is different.

The only things out of a complete kit for a 2JZ that may work are the turbo and the oil and coolant lines.

A couple places now are offering kits for the 7M-GE, RabidChimp and MDC are the first two that come to mind. You still have to pull the engine to add an oil return to the oil pan, upgrade the fuel injectors and installing an oil cooler is highly adviseable..... and so on.

ok thanks for the help

Do the kits include pistons and rods?

Nope, typically it's just an adjustable fuel pressure regulator, the oil and coolant hoses, the turbo and the down pipe. Some include the IC and piping as well.

You supply injectors of your choosing, fuel and boost controller if desired, oil cooler.

Yikes. I wonder how many people have installed these things thinking it was a complete kit and didn't need anything else!
