Hi guys im thinking about going turbo, i have a stock 7afe motor, im currently running a 3 row all aluminum radiator and a big transmission oil cooler with an electric fan on it. I have a brand new torque converter inside the transmission. I got about 140k on the motor and tranny. i also have 440cc injectors (not installed), got a cheap aem piggy back (not installed). i will go have it dyno'd and tuned by a shop if i do get a turbo setup but im curious what 7afe stock motors can handle (my guess is not very much). i dont want to kill the motor just want to bump up the hp and tq as much as i can without going forged.

To be honest, if you're wanting to stay automatic you'd be better off doing a 1MZ swap out of a Camry, ES300, Avalon, etc... They have the torque and power to make an automatic halfway bearable and there's no guesswork or worrying if things will last or work.

The 7A-FE is notorious for stuck oil control rings and consequently burning oil.
