oh so you helped IonNinja

 

[FASTL61]

I would go with a stage 2 at least.Just make sure you get a good H/E and have a wideband,Makes tuning alot easier.I think JN2 is running a 2.9 I could be wrong though

 

[cobalt123]

im definately getting both, ionninja said the same thing go stage 2 pulley

 

[FASTL61]

Also are you Auto or manual?

 

[cobalt123]

[FASTL61]

yall run control arms bushing and the new rotated stop mounts yet?

 

[FASTL61]

No 06blackbalt is on stock style mounts but there solids from TTR.He doesnt have any wheel hop issues.Just go to Ebay and search transmission cooler.One thing chris figured out was when he was on nitrous it was overheating the transmission and boiling the fluid.He would run 15.1's @ like 70mph,I run 15.4's at 91 lol.Transmission fluid cooler highly recomended

 

[cobalt123]

oh sweet ill look into it, i have a ingalls torque dampner but ive heard not to run them without upgrades to the control arms or what ever it was had something to do with the area...

Not sure,im manual.06blackbalt hasnt put his in yet,I would ask him after he does it since he's a certified lexus tech he might be able to give you tips.
