    Changing my head gasket, me asking for your help while doing this

    That is a Toyota specific part number. They might have something they can cross reference it with, but not necessarily. That's also only part of the part number....it will have a first half as well. I'm a noob at reading the EPC so I don't know what it is but it will be something like...

    Changing my head gasket, me asking for your help while doing this

    Very common gasket to leak....and it's another one of those real pain to change while everything's in :(. I had picked one up from the local parts store myself, just asked for a turbo oil feed/drain gasket on the turbo side and they figured it out. I'm having a hard time finding the part...

    fcd help

    To do it properly? 550cc injectors + lexus afm mod or your choice of standalone and some proper tuning. Doing other things such as upgrading the fuel pump and installing an adjustable fuel pressure regulator at the same time is also highly recommended. Fuel cut is the stock system basically...

    How hot is considered overheating?

    This sounds like a recipe for a fried turbo. I'd definitely check and see if the clutch on the fan is working properly. Rather than potentially damaging the blades or hurting yourself, it would probably be better to get the car warm, shut it off, and see how easily the fan free spins by hand...

    Roughly where am i HP wise ?

    Either way, his 11.5psi is the major factor of what's going to be giving him power. The largest reason you'll see more power from a better flowing exhaust is because you'll make more boost with less backpressure on the exhaust side of the turbo. I don't think you'd see much of a difference at...

    Roughly where am i HP wise ?

    hvyman is probably pretty close. I doubt you'd be breaking 250hp at the wheels.

    Transmission Codes :( Car no Go..... Help :/

    Stop right there for a second. If you are having issues enough that you are thinking of getting rid of the car because of DD dependability, I would very much suggest looking to pick up a second beater car. Something that isn't pretty but will dependably get you from a to b. Nothing is worse...

    7M Turbo Water Cooled

    If it's designed to use both, you're just asking for trouble eliminating one. What kind of radiator/cooling setup do you have?

    EGR cooler question

    All the EGR cooler is is a plate that bolts on to the back of the head that exhaust gases pass through on the way to the EGR. I believe there is a coolant plug back there just under the union, and I guess that could potentially leak, but I've never heard of it before. There is no oil running...

    collision question.......

    No, you can still get those, just having no real competition causes the rates to be expensive. With my 43% discount (maximum discount for safe driving with ICBC) my 2003 Celica GT is just over $2k/year for collision and reasonable, but not maxed out extra coverage. After 10 years you get 1...

    Using some cutting oil is also extremely helpful for both the drilling and tapping.

    Installed DM downpipe

    If you want a nice tone with volume the BIC Thunder Catback is pretty wicked. I had a 3" version of it on my car without the optional resonator and absolutely loved it. Did have a bit of a drone between 2000 - 2500 rpm that wasn't horrible in the driver seat but quite loud and annoying in the...

    collision question.......

    ICBC ftl.....they'll always find a way to put SOME blame on you just for that, ESPECIALLY if both parties are ICBC "customers" (can't really call you a customer if you're forced in to a single company by the government) :icon_mad:
