He's got a FWD Honda so 2JZ wouldn't work anyways.. But JEI does sell N/A 2JZGE motors for 1100. I think thats a hell of a price considering the motors are just about the same thing as a TT model.

yes and no, non turbo motors aren't built to hold 800hp not to mention: price the mods for it, an engine gasket set has got to be well over $600, cams, ecu, turbo kit, you'd be better off buying an LS1 and making the honda rear wheel drive, it'd be alot cheaper.

I have a 2jz-ge...

Its not that great... You end up putting a GTE bottom end on it so it can handle the added power of the turbo. Might as well just get the GTE and be done with it.
