On the V6 1MZ NA topic, I'll see if I can dig up some old US Solara threads about using 3MZ heads on a 1MZ block for a 12.9:1 compression ratio.  From memory they would modify some of the water galleries and drill additional oil wells for the VVT?  I can't remember how much power the setup was claimed to be making or what cams were being used, but it's another option regardless.

Top exit turbo dump / exhaust

 
 




Looks like he has to drift it so he can see where he is going, probably couldn't see over that cooler.
 
Loving the passenger wiping crud out of his eye!

Finally found the original photos I saw like two years ago of the drift missile 180sx with the top mount turbo and dump/exhaust.

I just spoke to someone last night who is building a SW20 circuit car which will be ready for the MTC 2014. 950kg/440hp 2GR V6! Im overseeing the build. I will also start a thread for this one too in the coming weeks. It will be the craziest SW20 in Aus.
For this car, Mark had confirmed it will be a 2.2 as the parts are all there and is the easiest/cheapest path. I have the bottom end which will be in the shop by the end of the month.
He will be completing the seam weld/prep this weekend. I cant help as Im at Wakefield helping Ian set his SW20 up.

Water methanol injection should solve the issue.

Shmaowzaow! 440hp/950kg!! Gonna take heaps of time and money getting an SW20 down to that weight. 440hp from the 2GR he must be running boost for that sort of power?
Water injection FTW!
