Sorry to hear this kind of news Steve. I think that anyone that decides to undertake a half decent supra project is doomed anyway. My luck hasn't been much different here either (most recent example is the exhaust work that has lasted 2 & a half months and counting) and I think it's not a...

we're not very fast n bright with them smilies indeed, are we

LMAO damn man, you turn that god damn spy camera off now, will you :3d_frown: :yelrotflm

:eek: :eek2: 5", you kitting me man? God that's superhuge, and what about pavement clearance??? Let alone the tiny redious at the motor/gearbox passage.

I thought you were going to run a 4" downpipe - which is still massive as most of the stuff on your car anyway- , are you seriously fitting a 5" downpipe there or is Ian just taking the piss as usual?

Adam I never said that this was a big deal, let alone "huge", all I said was that this mod was not mentioned before and I was under the impression that timing monitor would work without hacking the transistor board. That's all.

Well I guess "issue" is a heavy term and might have sounded more serious that intended. What I'm saying is that the resistor clipping was not mentioned untill now thus it came out of nowhere. And while we had been talking about the timing monitor function no one mentioned that the maft pro...

Ok let me get this straight cause although I've been checking this thread very often and carefully this seems to be an issue that just jumped out of nowhere. So, in order to use timimg monitoring on the maft pro we need to clip a resistor? I thought that was a mere software matter...

Why do we need clipping that resistor for again? I can't find any relevant posts before yours and the one that came with no pics in but still I don't understand what this tip is for :confused: :dunno:

Not fair, it's not my fault that Ian is bringing out the "geeky" part of me :-p . So Ian the ideal i/c setup...naaaaaah forget it :crazy1: :biggrinbo P.S. so seriously I should do the two seperate tankends, right??? :biglaugh:

I just made that promise thinking that we were coming to a conclusion with the two in one collector for the ideal setup but since you approve the twin chamber intercooler I might as well ask for some more clarifications here :naughty: ; So best setup is to keep the two 38mm pipes independent all...

Well I thought that if I'd dump all the gear I have already bought so as to get the ideal piping I'd may as well do some more fabricating but only if that would improve things. Don't wanna get things complicated if there's no actual benefit. So the ideal setup, regardless of complications...

Just been thinking; what if I had two independent 38mm ID pipes coming all the way from the compressors to a modified twin i/c inlet? That should give even more responsiveness, right?

LMAO Ian :biglaugh: . But hey that's why I got the twins remeber? Less lag so this "nothing nothing nothing SHIT 500hp damn sideways nothing nothing nothing repeat" malarchy won't be happening... :-p :rofl:

Ok, so basically I need to have the two 38-40mm pipes go to one 60mm ID pipe all the way to the i/c inlet, right? Damn and I have already got all the 3" piping and expensive samco elbows and couplers.

So if, for instance, I have two 38-40mm ID pipes coming of each comp respectivelly and connected to one 75mm ID pipe to the i/c inlet, how does that sound? Only way I can alter that 75mm i/c inlet obviously is to plasma cut it and weld a smaller inlet.

That means that that pipe should be less than 60mm. Isn't there a rule of thumb that the hot i/c pipe should be of equal diameter to the comp's diameter? If yes, doesn't that mean that I should have a 35x2=70mm pipe? If not, I'm just talking out of my ass here...:icon_conf Ian the comps outer...

Ian are you reffering to the i/c inlet, that's 3" OD on my i/c, about 74-75mm ID. Well they're both the same 35-38mm ID on the comps and they'll both go to equal 50mm ID pipes I think my i/c is somewhere in the 1400cfm region Is that a good thing or a bad thing?

yeap I though that someone should ask about that and I'm glad it's you Ian. So here's the comp. map: sould be running about 0.9-1 bar to get about 450-500bhp if my calculations are right (maybe 1.1bar tops)

Ok so you think that my i/c is not too big for my T3s (genuine question)?
