So out went the inline-four and in went a 2.5 L 1JZ-GTE inline-six that makes 512 horsepower and 436 lb-ft of torque to the wheels. The engine uses Brian Crower 264 camshafts, 1000 cc injectors, Bosch 044 fuel pump, APEX&#8217;i SAFC2 fuel controller, Haltech Elite 2500 ECU, and BorgWarner S360 turbocharger. Backing that engine up is a Competition Clutch stage 4 clutch, Toyota R154 five-speed manual transmission, and Shaftmasters driveshaft.<\/p>\n<p><a
