I have seen it where it is plumbed into the exhaust instead of the intake.

Tuning with it is the same process with a standalone or EMB, log and go to your target AFR. No need for the lex, it converts the car to a speed density solution. All you need is a pipe with a filter off of the turbo.

Congratulations! You could survive for 1 minute, 35 seconds!

Jay, try connecting the wastegate to just the turbo, one vac line between. BTW does your turbo have a t3 or t4 flange, and are you using a turbo that uses standard to4 feed and drain fittings? If everything matches up, or is close enough that I can send you some parts I will. This has been...

Hell, if someone offered me over 8k for my car when it is all said and done, I will be looking at it very seriously. Not saying that I would get out of supras, just would go about one in a very different way, possibly something making over 400whp NA, and more on the bottle.

Also look into pulling a bit of timing, and make sure that everythingis timed correctly (cams, cps, crank pully)

IMO (and as much as I love the JZ motors) nothing but an LSx or rotary belongs in an FD, and I dont really like the LSx swaps into them. They are too rare of a car to keep anything but the origional design of the car the same (boosted rotary). IMO an FC would be a better car to swap something...

I am SURE that if a HG popped, he could re machine the block and head, with a new HG on there before vegas, with getting 1k miles on it babying it.

I am at around 1500 a year with an 02 altima and a supra, full coverage on both. Each have extras on them as well.

I have the same idea's floating around in my head if the 1jz ever goes out. A nice 5.7l LSx out of a truck mated to a TKO. A nice responsive 450whp out of that motor would make a nice little street car.

How did it go with the new turbo on friday? Inquiring minds wish to know.

Someone has a quote in their sig, says something like "no tune, no life". Its true.

www.shoptalkforums.com Read the crazy swaps that get people going real fast. Maybe not 4k, but def for under 6. Imagine a chipped 2.5l STI motor running 25psi and an exhaust that is 4" wide, 2' long in a car that weighs around 2klbs. hell, if you really want to be a cheap mother, get some...

Lol, why keep up with anything? I built my car to surpass the average joe around here with a bolt on car. When it is done, I will see how I fare.

PM him, he is on these forums.

Not quite the kind of truck I would be looking for. More like an early 90s toyota minitruck with a clean exterior that some old man used to drive to the grocery store.

Either, no preference here. sm or sf for OT

Was the bellhousing intact?:biglaugh:

I believe that Drewgo's manifold fits perfectly. Why not build your own, making it a full twin scroll manifold using a twin scroll turbo to get a bit quicker spool?

Finally reached the limit of your r154 and needed a transmission that can handle the power?
