questions on enhancements on 2002 camry

[felya589]

i was thinking of puttin in a blowoff valve, spings, and a cold air intake in to my '02 camry.

do i need to add nything in addtion to any of those things to make them work better, or in general work beucase someone told me that if i get new springs i need new shocks, but i dont konw how true that is??

blowoff valve- why???
springs- tein s techs or eibachs.. no need to replace struts
cai- IMO all show no go

um you want to add a BOV to a N/A car ? i dont think that is possible, or your just going to waste your money because without a turbo how is the BOV suspose to make the noise a BOV makes so everyone wants on?

cold air intake... no. there is a short ram intake available thought but all it does is suck in hot air and make your car sound cooler. just stick with your oem air box

lowering springs,... you dont have to get new struts you can put the springs on the oem one. Tein makes some for the camry and eibach does too. there is also the TRD ones which i think its just rebranded teins (or is it eibach)

thanks ill stay away from the cold air intake...i found a lexus turbo taht will fit my car thats why i was asking aobut the blowoff valve

^Um... no. There is no Lexus turbo that will fit your car. In fact, there's no such thing as a Lexus turbo. Lexus has never made any turbo cars.

Not to mention that most (if not all) newer Lexus cars dont even have I4 engines, they are all V6's or V8's.

sweet i was thinking of using a hyundai turbo for my camry...but i think the lexus one might add more hp

[felya589]

i meant to say that i found a lexus that has a turbo that should fit my car theoretically

[MrSo0h0o]

like whitechocolate said, there has never been a turbo lexus.. so where is that coming from??

[white3ch0c0late]

Ok, dude... I'm gonna spell it out very simply-- you have a 2AZ-FE 4cyl engine. Not only does Lexus not make anything with a 2AZ block, but they don't even make 4cyl cars. There couldn't possibly be a turbo setup (aside from the fact that Lexus never made any turbo cars) that would be on a Lexus that would fit your engine.

Even most Scion tC parts don't fit the Camry 2AZ engines for various reasons. And the Scion tC has the exact same engine block as the Gen 5 Camry.

With that having been said, I think you're really misunderstanding what it takes to turbo a car. Adding forced induction to any car isn't as simple as slapping on a turbo and hittin' the road. Making an N/A car involves lots of pipe fabrication, custom exhaust work, ECU flashing... among other things. And if you really want to do it right, you'd get forged internals as well.

I'm not trying to come down on you or anything, but thats the simplest way that I can put it.
