Im thinking about upgrading to a 57 trim CT26, and I was wondering do I need to upgrade the wastegate too or just use the old one? Thanks Brendan

its defenitly not the death whine, or the whistle tip thank god lol. I guess its just the turbo im hearin, I do have an intake too, and it sounds different than the sound I heard through the intake.... i guess thats why it threw me off. Thanks all Brendan

I kinda thought that, but I've never heard turbo car whistle that loud.

Hey there, I have a friend who had a high flow muffler he wasn't gonna use, so just to hold me over till I can get a full exhaust system we installed it on my car. It sounds pretty decent, just a little growl, but there is this wierd whistle when my turbo kicks in its pretty loud, I was...

Great info, thanks. Thats actually the way im leaning right now, Im gonna go back to stock for now have rps resurface everything, and put it in later when I do get over 300+ RWHP. I think its a good plan, kind of an expensive lesson but oh well, like you said its a learning experience. That...

you think the disc even, is still salvageable? it is glazed but there is alot of material left. thanks Brendan

I broke it in properly, I did not drive it hard at all for about 400miles. I know that I did not have my throughout bearing installed properly which is probably why its all glazed. so you think I can still save my clutch setup??? please give me as much detail as you have, I cant take pictures at...

I have basically a stock car, I needed a clutch so I bought an RPS PP with an RPS 6puck disc whjich I was told was a Mild Race clutch. It didn't feel right ever since I put it in and then after 4 mo. it started slipping on shifts, so I took it to the shop and they tore it all apart and guess...

Do you work in sales at a Toyota dealership? IF so you might be familiar with a man named KC Nix, he's Toyotas sales trainer, and he says there will be another Supra, of course he wouldn't give details but he's not full of BS.

Thats it??? you must have no bills.

NO RPS?????? what the hell?

Yeah, I know clutch chatter all to well. Its a pretty harsh shaking of the car. I have an RPS 6 puck, chatter is a part of my daily drive now.... :icon_mad:

what do you mean leaks?? I think its normal when under boost for it to constantly be letting out a small amount of air, I hear mine when the turbo kicks in and there is this hissing noise as it lets some of the air out, then when you let off you get the big surge.

Yeah its a way different set-up, when I did my clutch(r154) the parts guys ordered the wrong bearing(w58) and when they finally got the right one I couldn't believe how different they were. The w58 TO bearing is pretty wimpy.

I have a new SSQV and it doesn't sound the same before my engine has warmed up, it kinda makes a fluttering sound, after the engine warms up it sounds right. Thats why I try not to boost at all untill my engine is good and warmed up. My SSQV does not have a adjustment screw either. Does that...

Yeah defenitely sounds like your clutch bud. If you need any tips I just did mine this month.

Im running DP only right now, and I hate it, all the sound is right under you, it smells, and it wants to backfire. plus i didn't notice any performance increase. That could be cuz im at stock boost though. Anyway, Im gonna go 3" probably HKS or Tanabe as soo as I have the cash.

sorry, didn't see that b4. I plan on in the immediate future, Exhaust(haven't made up my mind on brand), then all new gaskets (MHG, valve gaskets all that stuff.) Then boost controller. Then when im tired of all that power Turbo upgrade with all the supporting mods. I wanna keep it where I can...

RPS Clutch,HKS SSQV BOV, INTAKE. Thats it right now.

Yeah not bad I haven't even had it detailed yet.... 187k on the ODO
