Should I be worried? (1MZ-FE Turbo Question)

[360glitch]

To put this straight forward, I'm wondering how dangerous it is to run ~10psi on a stock 1MZ-FE. I've been doing so for a month or so with no problems at all... but I've heard from various people that may or may not know anything that it won't be long before I'm having major issues. Any input?

I would ask Tony the Tiger.

im gonna say ur tranny is gonna have problems before the engine will. tony put work into the tranny with his. from my experiacnce what u mainly have to worry about would be the seals blowing with that much psi. but if u upgraded them u should be straight. but remember im no tony ot toysrme.

and another thing. where the hell are the pics man! i wanna see pics and videos and everything else

Not long after I posted this I thought to myself... "should've just asked Tony", haha. What kind of pics and videos would you like bigbird?

[CamNub]

Do you have manual tranny?

[bigbird]

of the swap man, what else?

I think he has an auto, and 360 ANY VIDS, this is TN how many turbo'd camrys do we see, acceleration, BOV, pulls everything and anything would be good

These pics are a little old but things aren't much different...



Or is it?





















It indeed is an automatic. You can find more pics on this thread:

I'll work on some vids for you guys this weekend.

In that case, whoever posted uptop saying the tranny is more liekly to fail you is right.

But 10 psi is a lot. Isn't recommended about 8psi for these cars?

Interesting thing is that my car can handle 17-19psi. Coming from 5s-fes, I was pretty shocked.

I know with the 1mz in the solara people usually blow up at anything past 7 psi on stock internals...

[Venom_5]

lol .... 360 is gonna blow!!!

why run high psi if youre just daily driving anyways?

Your car is most likely about to spontaneously combust. And your hair will be set ablaze in a gloooooorious rainbow. With leprechauns. And wheels of cheese.

You wouldn't understand...


But... I really should turn it down a bit, or atleast set it for somewhere around 7psi as my "A" setting and then let my "B" setting be 10psi or whatever. And then use that for daily driving and showing out when nessasary. But... maybe it should never see ten, not even when racing... Where's Tony?
