    turbo lag question

    Speed = Time + money. The more time spent on looking for deals, and the more you fabricate, the less money is needed. My single setup has cost me under $600 so far, and I have a turbo($40 Holset HX35w, no shaft play and spins freely) , mani (XSpower) and downpipe(XSpower). New wastegate...

    Need help picking a turbo

    How much $$ do you have, because you should do a set of cams with the single. If I had enough cash to toss around, I would run a 71gts on drewgo's manifold, some 272 cams, a 44mm wastegate and a full 3.5" exhaust turbo back, but alas, I will be running a Holset HX35 internally wastegated (set...

    I was refering to my current status, and MPG, not overall. I would personally pay the $0.75 increase per gal if I were to get double the mileage.

    I would trade my altima for a MKIV VW TDi any day of the week. You want cheaper gas, I want better gas milage.

    installed viper 5900 car alarm, car wont start HELP PLEASE!!!!!!!

    Sounds like the good old starter kill in the factory alarm. Chances are the hacks at CC did nothing about the stock alarm and you now have 2 systems there. Lock and unlock your drivers door, see if you can start it then.

    1JZ's with Upgraded Cams + Single Turbos

    I am wishing I could answer this question, but the single is still in pieces, uninstalled. My setup should be good for ~400whp on pump gas, 18psi, full spool at 3.4-3.6krpm. Stock motor + head, Holset HX35 w/ 12cm^2 housing, ATP internal wastegate actuator, 3" turbo back catless, 440cc...

    1988 1JZ exhaust system

    It will fit, but might need to be streched @ the hangers. Look into a custom sized cat or test pipe. I know I had to have a 14"(IIRC) test pipe welded up by Slow66, but I was using the Trust 3" DP. The exhaust fit fine on my stock NA (with cat). Now with my new exhaust, it fits fine with a...

    1JZ smoke after full boost and decel

    Sounds like the valve stems. Unfortunately, if you are doing that you might as well go to a single turbo setup, as the twins will need to be taken off and put back on (head almost 95% of the time should come off, so you do not drop a valve down the block).

    1j mods

    No, comeon. Parts for the supra are cheap:sarcasm: A small turbo with a 57mm+ inducer, a 3"+ exhaust, some 550cc injectors, a walbro 255, a 6-puck disk and something to tune with will get you there. Stock IC should be able to take it (insofar as you are not roadracing it)

    Would you pay the extra $.75 for double the mpg? I know I would. I would pay the $5.19 here per gal, if I had a car that got more than 45mpg. That is almost double what I am getting in the altima (23-24mpg), although I do not drive like a grandma.

    Big Dawgs, Can we get an update? (Ron, Duane, Kwnate etc) to name a few

    Indeed. The local one to me uses a ~60" HD TV, absolutely wonderful. Looks better, and is better for your eyes. Besides, if the vac. tube were to break in that monitor for some reason:aigo:

    DIY power steering cooler using 3/8" copper pipe?

    Why not do what I did, go to your local auto parts retailer, and buy a transmission cooler for under $50 and run that? You can adapt the stock lines to whatever you need.

    It is a monster turbo, compared to my holset in the garage, and the stock ct12as on my car :) Amazing job, and for the love of god get a better screen. CRTs are so 90s.

    Who has an addiction with dumping wayy too much $$$ into their supra

    I really don't want to add it up, but for arguments sake..... Around 8k total, including the parts that are not installed yet. Getting a new wastegate on tuesday so I can attempt to install the single. Still need oil lines, and IC pipes. See sig for reasoning.
