man - it sucks that you had a hard time. I would've loved to have been there - but coming from New Zealand is a bit of a hard ask :)
big up's for representing the 7M community - regardless of the result....
Ah ok.
I was just concerned as its VERY loud.
It sounds EXACTLY like this (start at 45 seconds when it's in car and you can really hear it)

Hey,
Thanks for the replies. Ignore THAT dyno and the missing as I've since change to a mitsi igniter and gotten rid of the miss.
In "that" video I'm running around 14psi (yes with 7M 440's but I'm a 1G-GTE)
Here's my dyno graph: http://www.supras.co.nz/pics/ecu/finished/dyno.jpg

Hey everyone:
Take a look at this video.
Ignore the text in the video and the miss etc - its an oldish video but the sound at the end of each pull is the same as now - is it compressor surge?
Its NOT coming from the BOV - it's coming from the turbo.
The BOV is opening - but it would...
HAHAHA yeah I know - That's one of the other things I have to do - maybe this weekend - altho my exhaust manifold needs to be refaced - then while my mate was about to reface it he noticed it was cracked - grrrrr
So hopefully today he'll get onto that then get it all ready for assembly on...
Dammit I dont have a picture of my car from when I first got it :(
So I'm borrowing this one :naughty:
It was in this kind of condition though:
And this is what it looks like now - not finished, or clean haha:
Ok normally this wouldn't be something I'd say or suggest let alone do - but I honestly think someone should steal these car's and restore them to their beatiful natural state never letting the owner know what happened.
Thanks for that :)
It's taken me a while but really there isn't that much involved. It was a pretty lazy 320rwhp.
Anything over 18psi and they start to really sing (or shout as the case may be) so I cant wait to get everything sorted and wind 4-5 more psi into her :)
My thanks goes to...
Yep - 1G all the way :)
350rwhp is what I really wanted. Once I've sorted my exhaust leak and intercooler pipes I'll be able to wind a bit more boost into her and get at least 350rwhp :biglaugh:
Hey all,
Dyno day went ok.
Kept blowing intercooler pipes off. I really need to get rid of all the joiners I have and weld lips on the pipes.
Boost controller isnt set up properly - (I have it set up as a bleed system rather than, well whatever the other way is where it applies pressure to...
It's not my car - and its not even a Toyota - but it is a Supra engine....

1G-GTE - 10.7 @ 132.24 mph
He's making more power now, around the 440rwhp mark I believe (if not more) - un-sure of his latest drag time however...
