After months of agony and pain of fine tuning with the tuner, the Toyota Vios turbo project is now finally complete. The previous work in progress pictures can be found here.
While the car was on the dyno machine awaiting tuning, coincidentally JUN Auto's President Junichi Tanaka and Chief Engineer Keiichi Hatanaka popped in as they were in town, and they started snapping pictures of the car.
According to JUN, they are currently embarking on a R&D effort to produce aftermarket parts for the 1NZ-FE engine such as camshafts, forged rods and pistons. If this is really true, then this is really good news for all 1NZ-FE owners out there. With proper researched and developed aftermarket parts, we will have a lot more things to play with.
Taking in to consideration the reliability for everyday driving, the engine compression has been lowered to a 9.5:1 ratio and I only went as far as 0.6 bar of boost. The stock injectors were already maxed out at 0.4 bar anyway so additional injectors were fitted to cope with the extra boost.
While a MAP sensor was added for a more accurate tune, the MAF sensor was retained and the voltage is clamped so the stock ECU would not throw a check engine code.
GT Auto tuned the car very conservatively considering the internals are stock standard and this small little 1NZ-FE now produces a usable 143 PS together with 180 N-m of torque at the wheels. Dyno chart indicates the turbo starts building boost around 2,300 rpm and full boost is achieved around 2,850 rpm.
If we do a backward calculation of 20% power loss at the transmission, the engine should be producing around 180 PS and 225 N-m of torque on the crank.
This setup should be just nice for city driving and some occasional sprinting with the car's weight kept at around 980kg.
My only concern now is the auto transmission gearbox, I am not sure how long can the gearbox cope with the additional horsepower before it starts to slip and give way. Oh well, when it does I guess it is probably time to swap it with a manual transmission then.

vios turbo?damn it...great bro... total cost?
erm bro rudy, maybe its better i tell you offline? :D
ok i add ur facebook (fb.
Bro i need to ask something about your O2 sensors.
Do you modify for your O2 sensors so it will detect A/F same as NA? I'm pretty sure that your tuner will set new A/F ratio for turbocharged car and this will cause more fuel in the ratio right?
Or is there any device to alter the signal from O2 sensors and telling ECU that the mixture is perfect (as N/A)
Hi bro,
My stock O2 sensor was retained, however I do have a wideband O2 installed.
Yes, during WOT my tuner dialed in the AF ratio to stay at 12 flat. It does consume more fuel during WOT, but if you drive the car off boost normally the fuel consumption is almost the same as stock, in my case its actually more fuel saving because the car moves just with very light throttle.
I'm not sure why would you want to alter the signal from the O2 sensors. Are you trying to force the ECU to go open loop? I assume you're on a piggyback with your turbo kit?
Nevertheless if you would still like to modify the O2 readings the ECU is getting, you could consider getting a wideband controller which allows narrowband voltage output, which you could wire it in to the ECU to emulate narrowband readings.
Products from Innovate Motorsports is good, like the LC-1 or even the higher range LM-1. Do check them out.
How about your setup for ECU? Can explain to me?
Oh forgot.. why you use LC-1 instead on F-Manage? It's do the same job..
E-Manage Ultimate+V-Manage+F-Manage
Bro Anonymous, you are the same person with the nick TurboCar right?? LOL sorry I'm a bit confused here :)
Anyways you're right, E-Manage Ultimate combined with V-Manage and F-Manage will probably give you functionalities close to a standalone.
Thing is, when the stock ECU goes in to close loop we won't have full control over it. I actually kind of regret getting the E-Manage Blue, not to say that its not good enough but because it can't perform close loop tuning which is something what I want.
As you know my engine compression was lowered, initially the drivability of the car was very shitty. The idling was terrible, the car trembles and shakes during low RPM. Of course, right now the problem is all gone.
Then, we've got to keep an eye on the long term fuel trim and short term fuel trim of the stock ECU. If the numbers vary drastically, it also affects the power delivery of the engine.
End of the day, I concluded that standalone is the way to go because it gives us complete control over the engine. However, it is the pricing that is the main concern.
Hurm, maybe I will go to standalone. The problem is, hard to find one that able to control my engine.
My engine is 2.0L 1AZ-FE. Can you help me ask the shop? Which standalone is the best for my engine
I got my car tuned in GT Auto, their shop is located in Sunway. They are definitely professionals.
If you're looking for a standalone, perhaps you might want to go pop by their shop and consult them?
They are pro at standalone EMS such as Motec, Haltech, Autronic etc. I'm sure they will have something suitable for your 1AZ-FE.
I already email Haltech and they suggested me to use Platinum Sport 1000. It's capable to run modern engine. So, you help me the price inclusive installing and tuning
Haltech Platinum 1000? That's a good choice! I was thinking to get the same as well.
Bro, where are u staying currently at the moment? You free to pop by GT Auto for a chat?
It'll be good if you can drive straight over so that you can talk personally to them and find out more details about the Platinum Sport.
I'm from Johor Bahru. Today I go KL for hypertune photo shoot. Maybe we can meet each other to chat a while. Actually it's hard to find people do BOT to modern engine in Malaysia
Oh I'm sorry I didn't know you were from out of KL.
If you're interested to meet up, please do. I'm currently in GT Auto now in Sunway, do you have their address?
Please feel free to pop by if you wanna chat, will be glad to know more friends :)
Hurm... cannot la bro.. my rival ride is there, the wish supercharger want to change to BOT
Ah finally I know you're driving a Wish turbo! Why so secretively ah bro? :D
Anyways, its nice to know so many Toyota car owners with turbos out there!
If you see my car please don't bully me ok, I only 1.5 litre engine hehe!
hehehe no lah
bro didn't get to see you yesterday, how was the photo shoot going on?
so i can look forward to the next issue of hypertune and look out for your car yah! :)
photoshoot tomorrow la bro
oh i thought it was today, your car must be really nice for Hypertune wanting to feature it.
"MAF sensor was retained and the voltage is clamped so the stock ECU would not throw a check engine code"
You said this on your post. Actually how they clamped O2 sensors (MAF) voltage?
Bro can you ask your tuner if they can clamp voltage for O2 sensors as well? So the CE light will gone~
bro izzani,
bro, the O2 sensor and MAF are to different things.
your MAF is located near to your air filter while your O2 sensor is located at your exhaust after the catalytic converter.
my MAF voltage was clamped using the e-manage piggyback. voltage clamped at 4.85v if not mistaken.
i can try asking how can we clamp an O2 sensor, but why would you want to do that? is your CEL on because of that?
Ops, sorry. I am pointing the sensors at the air filter. (Haiz, my mind keep thinking o2 sensor only, that's why I wrote o2 sensor. haha)
Yes, the only reason CEL on is the O2 sensors only. If the ECU can get normal reading and the CEL will not be trigger. Problem solve lol
haha, ok what seems to be the problem now bro?
is the O2 readings from your stock sensor to your ECU out of whack?
yah, seem like that.. so the CEL on.. need to tweak the signal send to ECU.
oh im sorry to hear that, is it a Vios as well? wow, another turbo in progress!
just want to share that im currently using the innovate LM-1, which can simulate narrowband O2 readings back to ECU.
hope it helps :)
I think that things help you to maintain A/F.. but.. omg the price haha..
my blog http://www.wishturbo.com
bro, linked to your blog already. nice!
bro,that sumthing i wanna ask,how to modify vios exhaust system for auto car....i mean N/A not TURBo bro........and,about BOT,it require wan condition to BOT?...like minimum 17"inch rims ,etc etc?
wah...brother! u have a nice vios..
i also wan upgrade my vios power.. anh suggestion?where u come from?
im from malaysia bro :)
i from malaysia too....
which state???i from ipoh.....
hi bro...im using vios turbo too...but have little bit problem..
im vios turbo from p.dickson...i had problem wth extra injector...cannot find the injector seat(connector from pipe to injector)...plz help me
oh its nice to meet another vios turbo.
shoot me an email at contact@viosturbo.com i'll help you.
tq bro..
Great job guys!I also have vios turbo.Have you found where the injector seat is?
its great to be able to know more vios turbo owners out there.
do you have pictures or a blog where we could check it out? would love to link to you.
as for the injector seats, yeah i do why do you ask?
bro, nice job on the car! do you still remember the routing for the atf cooler? is it running on its own from the autobox or tapped from the radiator to the atf cooler?
thanks man! if i am not mistaken we've bypassed the radiator when we installed the atf cooler.
i'm currently in the process of converting to manual now, so i'll have to check back what was the exact setup i was running back then.
bro, if you do find out the exact atf cooler setup, do reply here yea, thanks
Thanks for sharing your modifications.My first car is a Vios and i have it three years now.It's very economical and reliable for everyday drive.
hey there. i would like to ask some advice on modifying my vios. my vios is a stock car with a 17' rims and its totally underpowered. what would you recommend me to mod to improve the performance ( i cant afford the turbo. im still a student. =p) thanks bro.
i guess the 17' wheels on the vios is really taxing on the vehicle especially if your car is in stock form.
just a piece of advise, don't go waste your time and money installing those voltage stabilizers products.
drop me an email at contact@viosturbo.com if you would like to talk more.
what would you recommend to mods then? to improve torque.
You are a legend.
thank you all for the kind comments guys, i haven't had time to update the blog lately.
we're currently still halfway in the engine building, partially because my tuner has been busy and also we've been changing the engine specs as we go along.
hello , mr chang , i'm chan from malacca , i'm looking turbo kit to my vios 04 . can u recomment some great workshop for me , because at malacca i didn't find it. thx alot for ur helping . send me e-mail csmeng8@yahoo.com
ok bro, dropped you an email already...
This is a very impressive post. I can appreciate the amount of effort that went into it. You have a very good feel for getting the right information out to the people.
This is totally cool. But it looks quite expensive.
Your motor is quite alot like XBGOD in the U.S. but I think he's one step ahead of you.
I belive he is one of the owners at Toy Box Racing.
He has a knifed-edged super crank for the 1nz-fe that is 3 pounds lighter than stcok and is bad ass.
They are also using Titanium rods from Crower
Looks as well they have a relationship with Junichi Tanaka from JUN performance as well. Their head is outragous!
5,200.00 dollars
Tom Fujita at Port Flow Designes does their head work. You should check them out.
Their head has JUN turbo gound cams Ferrera + 1mm oversized titanium valves and high compression springs. Their stuff is crazy.
They are claiming to be the first ones to make 500hp.
they are also using a Tial / Garrett GTX3071R turbo.
Check it out over at Scion Life forum.
These guys got all kinds of parts being made.
hey thanks for the info, it's indeed great to know that on the other part of the world we have people putting in effort to make the 1nz-fe engine a great engine.
now, im not sure whose one step ahead of who but when i logged in to Scion Life forum, i saw some of the photos that was posted there were grabbed from my blog.
My dad prepare to work on Toyota Vios because it is more productive than any other brand. Good machine and more comfortable to use.
nice tuner...how much of stage 1 turbo cost?
nice...i was wondering, what type of piston are you using by the way?
how much for this?
I have seen a full set of turbo kit offered by speedworks which cost RM9000 to install..I am just wondering is the kit they are offering reliable ?? Can be seen from the link below

where can i find the turbo manifold for vios 2003 and what is the price range....btw...nice car u got there...
Nice project Mr. Chang, i too use that year vios and slowly rebuilding it although not as extreme as yours, mine is still NA though. I definitely will use your experience as suggestion for choosing parts, thanks man.
also chang-senpai, do you know a reputable garage that can install turbocharger or supercharger properly in Indonesia?,my target is only at least 200 and at max 300 hp, and nothing more.... or at least the brand of the turbocharger/supercharger. thanks for the info btw
Bro! Spotted your car at pyramid yesterday! The moment I saw this 'stock' looking black vios, I knew it looked very very familiar haha.
how much you don that
wow nice post! check this out also: mini turbo malaysia
Pm
Pm
Amigo en cuanto te salio el total de todo esto??
Hai bro...Would you mind to let me know total amount charging the intercooler turbo for vios? I interested to know also oh.
You can reply on my e-mail : singyun_86@hotmail.com
Total cost?
Total cost please
how much?
Toyota Vios hoping this car have a better performance.
What rods do you use?
Brand, type (H beam, I beam, etc) , max rpm, etc?
