Visited the mapper today to discuss about the upgrade I am going to do soon. He insisted to fit the water/methanol injection kit. He has mapped many cars lately with this kit and he says it makes a huge difference in performance. Need to find a good place now in the boot to fit the water injection tank and also get a long hose pipe. I will keep you informed with the progress. I will also fit IK24 plugs and will be ordering the vibratechnics engine mounts next week.

I just ordered a set of uprated engine mounts from Vibra technics for the 1GFE.

I am collecting all the necessary parts this period in order to go for the upgrade. Hopefully next month I will have everything and go for more power as i have mentioned above.

Another update regarding the second stage of my engine upgrade. The new uprated engine mounts have arrived. Pictures will follow tomorrow. I have also purchased Denso 370cc injectors from a Toyota Camry 2.4lt 2AZFE and a service repair kit.
I also intend to ceramic coat the exhaust manifold to reduce the heat emission towards the supercharger and also keep the exhaust gases at a high temp for better performance. Furthermore I will fit a 76mm pipe after the catalyst and change the midpipe.

Once the injectors arrive, I will fit the water injection kit, 160mm pulley, injectors, engine mounts, check the condition of the spark plugs and of to the mapper to be remmaped.
