Why are we talking about the 2j, arp only makes one pn for the 2jz, and it is the same as the ones that come in the eagle rods for the 2j. Back on track- the 7m arp's are 8740 chrome molly steel 200,000 psi bolts and are loads stronger than the stock steel bolts.
You southern guys are funny with your snow and ice stories compared to us northern guys who live in the snow for 4 or 5 months. Last week I heard there was a wind chill advisory for florida because the wind chill was in the 50's
You need some back pressure to keep the power in the lower rpms where you need it. The bigger the exhaust on an NA motor the less the back pressure and the more the power band is moved to the upper rpms. Some back pressure, or smaller exhaust diameter will keep the power band in the lower rpms...
Eagle Rods come with ARP bolts, what is wrong with them compared to the stock bolts? Eagle rods are an ok upgrade from stock rods but for my money, I would go with custom billet 5140 steel rods or titanium rods. If you don't like the options avaliable for "off the shelf" rods, you could always...

Lots of over lap on a turbo motor will cause more low end turbo lag.
There is no rule that aftermarket cams have more overlap, this is just how...

Going to move this to the "Build Threads"

I know the chance of getting on national tv is remote, but who cares? I never said the sole purpouse of a build would be just for Pinks. Yes, It would be a lot of fun for everyone involved I'm sure. But that may not happen. I could see this car going to Supra meets around the country, for show...
927mgte- Looks like you really had something going there. It is too bad that you had to let that go. That would have been a car to build!
xarewhyayen- I see no problem with that.
jtamulis- I was only thinking of the 57 trim to get the thing going. And then soon after step up to a bigger...
