Since the engine is turbocharged, horsepower depends on boost level. You could probably call a 1jz-gte a 350hp 2.5l tt and still be accurate, technically speaking.

Since the displacement is about 17% less than a 2jz-gte, you can expect about 17% less horsepower at the same boost level.

NB: Please consider posting any help requests in a new thread instead of asking me for help privately. About 99.9+% of the time, private help requests end up covering great information that could be very valuable to other forum members. If you have a good reason for needing the help request to be private, I'll consider it. If not, then why not give everyone else the opportunity to pitch in too, and/or learn from the information? Remember, there's no such thing as a dumb question. We're all here to help within this family of Supra owners.
