Lfa is Lexus not an engine I see in any toyota. The 2zz is not a high performance engine. Sure has 180 hp the beams has more. The beams handles more rpm than any other engine made in 1997 and it was the first Vvti of its class, and it was 200 hp to the crank, thus better than the 2zz 10 years before the 2zz. So I don't get your logic why you consider the 2zz better than a beams.


We can sit here all day arguing why the sky is blue. Point in case you dislike the beams and any thread about beams you post negative comments. We have all backed out of belittling the v6 1mz. The beams is a good engine. Not the best by any chance.

So back to the op. Remember once you pick a beams that is it. No more modes, not many available. If you are power hungry, then it's not your engine.
