The FJ20's already come with electric fans, so scrub that off your list.

I'd like to see one of these with an 11:1 compression, that should improve things no end. The standard compression is very sensible and emissions friendly.

Some mappable ignition would be good too, get some good advance down the bottom end to increase the torque.

List of possibilities is endless, me personally I'd turbo it.

There's no space for a viscous fan

Default thanx !

hi guys thanx for all your interests ! i'd thought about slamin a turbo on but the compression is to high and to get new pistons was gonna cost about £80 each ! owtch , so i'm open for ideas, as for the exhaust, my front pipe seems to be ok ! but the rest is on its way out so if anyones got a staight through pipe 2 1/2 - 3 in through to the rear, i have a 'magnex' back box to hook up to, i also need full suspention as mine has about shot it, anyone knows of a good stiff 'n' low set-up , that would be great ! i know i have alot of ideas but sadly not alot of money , all offers and ideas will be read and contemplated thanx again , Neil

hi mate, you can run a turbo on std compression, its been done by a couple of guys in aus on fj20.com, and still running after 2 years at 18psi, you could always have a slightly thicker copper gasket on it, i think they saw around 350+ bhp.
