I mean I hail from the Toyota community where people are easily making double digit boost from either single or TT in the 2JZ engine. In fact most people running the 2JZ dont use meth unless they are above 20 psi. So why is Meth necessary at such a low pressure? And wouldn't a thicker head-gasket help lower the compression ratio allowing for higher boost nubmers?
I mean at the end of the day I am still a Noob but this stuff doesnt seem to add up to me
Well I don't know anything about the 2JZ toyota engine, but I believe our issues here stem from the Direct Injection on this engine. If it weren't for that, I believe you wouldn't see some of the issues the LLT is having.

But its not like we need 20 psi anyways...heck...seems like 7 to 8 psi will get you in the 500+ crank horsepower club lol.
