Hey Hoonsy. I thought you might have something to tell us ? Maybe in your showroom ? Yes. No ? Cheers.

Eric I must say Thanks again for letting me drive this last weekend! You are certainly well on the way to having a well rounded and enjoyable car. Coming from a turbo it caught me off guard how responsive the NA is with a few bogan revs during an attempted heel and toe. Will be much easier with the new throttle pedal however.
Can only imagine how nice the feel, sound and experience would be as a long term driver. It's one thing to go for a quick spin but another to enjoy different types of driving. I think it would be amazing on a mountainous road driven at a moderate pace making the most of the torque and the exotic sounds (sounds strange describing the sound of an aurion motor as exotic) echoing through the landscape at night.

Thanks Kris,
More than happy to let you drive it. I'm all for showing people why I did the swap. Sometimes you don't realize why its a good motor until you drive it.
Update on the charger. Motor is coming out next Sunday and will be out for roughly a month.
After seeing 5SGTE's engine bay, it has inspired me to do a wiring tuck and relocate the fuse box and overflow bottle into the boot.
I will be replacing the fuel system with pushlock AN fittings and sorting out other bits and pieces I wanted to do the first time. Painting the gearbox a metalic silver has been high on my to do list, but ran out of time last year when I was rushing for the MTC.
I've run a couple of numbers to get my expected power figure. Numbers are simply that but I couldn't resist the curiosity
2GR-FE
Flywheel - 200KW (268HP)
Wheel - 187.7KW (252Whp)
Calculated Drivetrain loss: 6.15%
2GR-FZE
Flywheel - 241KW (323HP)
Wheel - 226.2KW~ (303WHP)
Rough figures but entertaining none the less.

You will find that figure is actually closer to between 15% and 20%. You will have a little more at the flywheel over a regular 2GR Aurion due to aftermarket headers, y pipe and exhaust removing those restrictions. Rough stab, I reckon you have between 215KW (288HP) and 225KW (301HP) at the flywheel.

If you are upgrading to AN fittings would you be interested in a set of Radium fuel rails?

Kris's engine bay is soo clean, yours will look awesome (although less shiny - no W2A barrel) when you apply the same attention to detail! I'm keen to see the details of what you do with the W2A sandwich plate and bonnet.
 Go soothingly on the grease mud as there lurks a skid demon.

And the fare meter above the steering wheel needs resetting. Does it have one of those beaded seat covers as well?

So the supercharger has been delivered, I also picked up a TRD ECU off ebay for cheap to complete the kit.
Now the fun begins. Engines coming out this weekend to get the ball rolling!

Supercharger on, just gotta fix the belt. It somehow got stuck in between the idler pulley. 10/10 keen to drive this!
