I'm very sorry to hear that. My sincere condolences. -Nick

Just make it. Making braided lines is pretty easy. Mind you, for that application you'll want to use teflon line and fittings. They cost a little more but they're definitely needed in that application. I like Summit Racing for buying my parts, great prices and fast shipping. Brandwise I'd...

Actually I did but it was a mistake. Meant to stop at 95 on the first bolt of the 4th pass and my foot slipped and I torqued to 105. I decided to torque the rest of them to that value rather than back the first one off. I never recommend that high because it frankly scared the shit out of me...

FEL PRO IS the stock Toyota gasket. Look at country of origin on the gasket list. HG is made in Japan and is/was the only gasket made in Japan.

Stock HG, new stock headbolts, 90 ft-lbs of torque. I did the above, except I milled the head and torqued to 105 ft-lbs. Held up fine to an upgraded (-60) CT 26 at 21-22 PSI.

You guys saying 400 HP is BS are full of shit and don't know your Supra history. The car has an upgraded CT at what boost level? No one knows but everyone feels the need to talk shit. Are the injectors upgraded? Who knows, no one here that's for sure. That 400 HP is probably crank too...

Got the housing today. Exactly what I needed, fits like a glove. Thanks for all of your help Dave, I really appreciate it. Dave + Dave = FTW!! Thanks again, and please thank Dave H for me too! -Nick

You know I'll be there. Probably sporting the BMW, but the Supra has a VERY SMALL chance of being done in time. Days off are already scheduled, wouldn't miss it for the world!! It's a great time folks, ALWAYS!!!

Good talking to you Dave, been awhile.

Smallest one possible, I think it's 1.01 IIRC. Pics resent, sent them 3 pics at a time instead of all 10 (15MB). Thanks for the help Dave, I really appreciate it. This thing has turned into a pleasant surprise, but it's a real PITA right now. How do you tell if it's a ball bearing turbo?

Pics keep bouncing, What's your max message size?

Pics sent Dave, thanks for the help! If it'd help, I'd send you the turbo. I need to get this resolved. Thanks man, Nick

Bump, any ideas Dave? I need to figure this turbine housing out ASAP. Thanks, Nick

I don't know, the dealer I spoke with said Q was as big as they ever went. Here's what's on the compressor housing: G A/R .81 M1 (The G might be a C, it's not real clear, The M1 is not very clear either). An observation about this casting, it's a lot cleaner than the T'netics casting I...

I'm fairly certain that it's actually a gt42. I'll get the #s off the turbine housing this evening and see if the CHRA has anything on it. All the T'netics stuff I found seems to indicate the q trim is as big as they ever made.

Not sure, but what size turbine housing do I need? What trim and all that horseshit? Turbo was originally on a MKIV, would an on center make sense there?

800 my ass:icon_bigg Bigger!

Pic is below, sorry in advance for the size. Gimp kept crashing and I couldn't resize it. I think I may have gotten lucky for a change in this build! Thought the turbo was a T72 like I said before but I'm pretty sure the turbo is actually a GT4294. Here's the measurements: Turbine, Major...

Thanks Dave. I'll get pics and all the measurements when I get home. Really need to figure out what this thing is. Thought it was a T72 Q trim, apparently not. -Nick

OK, I bought this turbo about 3 years ago and spent the last 3 years buying all the supporting mods. The turbo is supposed to be a Turbonetics T72 Q trim. SOB wouldn't fit on my header (hit against the shock tower) but it was an on center housing. I ordered a Q trim tangential housing and the...
