    Turbo blew up :(

    Yeah, If you're lucky then you can just slap a replacement turbo on, and run it. If you're unlucky, smaller bits of the compressor wheel made it through the intercooler and into your cylinders.

    I've never heard of the DH61 being used with IS300 coils either.

    '87 Turbo overheating

    I think you'd be fine without the shroud, until your oem type rad begins building blockage/ calcification at all, and you're in warmer temps. But at ~$75 for a new one, why would you risk overheating?

    morganson's COP S-Type setup

    Are the boots easy to cut to proper length without screwing them up?

    morganson's COP S-Type setup

    Lol. And ps again- How hard would it be to make the plate out of carbon fiber? I mean, its just a flat piece, with holes drilled out of it, right? Anyone up for trying that?

    '87 Turbo overheating

    I'm definitely a fan of oem fan and shroud. In fact, i just ordered a brand new oem fan and shroud 2 hours ago. $180 for both shipped. Ive had the Flexalite 210's on my car before, and i switched back. They do the job just fine, but are noisier, and heaven forbid the fan switch, fuse, or relay...

    morganson's COP S-Type setup

    I know we already discussed this, but to clarify- Either the dg500 or dg528 can be used, we just need the proper length boot, correct?

    Cross-compatible radiator fans?

    I tried a quick search on this, but wasn't sure of what terminology to use: I'm wondering if anyone knows of any compatible fans from other Toyota/Lexus models, that could be used on the supra. My clutch is fine, but the blades themselves are kinda ratty. i just wanted to know if anyone had...

    Project Git 'er done!: Stages 1, 2, 3, 4....Stage 5- Reassembly after 13 years!!!

    That is correct. Its still plywood, but it's birch, and twice as thick. I moved the hinge from over to under, to raise it about a 1/2 inch as well. Wasn't sure how much room i'd need for the cap, amp, etc.

    Arctic Cat injectors in a supra?

    Yes, I did get these injectors. They are installed in my head(and have been for like 6 months). Hopefully, I will get the chance to start the engine before Christmas. My supplier was Ebay. Attempting to buy these from a few overseas distributors was completely fruitless; they would advertise...

    7mgte possible power with listed upgrades

    Agreed. IC won't do much for you at these low boost levels, all your power is coming from the upgraded CT, and the dp. We are assuming you have the dp hooked to a freeflow exhaust as well. Your power limiter in this case will be fuel cut and injector size.

    Project Git 'er done!: Stages 1, 2, 3, 4....Stage 5- Reassembly after 13 years!!!

    Today, I added a lower O2 sensor bung to the dp. I learned too late, that the wideband sensor needs to be about 2ft. from the turbo, if I want it to survive. Also, I heat-wrapped the exhaust just prior to the cat, to insure a longer life for the speedo cable as well. And lastly, I finished...

    SOS with engine wiring!!

    Um, yes and no. You DO have the correct harness for your motor...IF your car is righthand drive. Cars in Japan are all RHD, and thus, the harness is about 20" shorter, since it doesn't have to cross over to the right side of the car. That guy screwed you, and he knew it.

    Project Git 'er done!: Stages 1, 2, 3, 4....Stage 5- Reassembly after 13 years!!!

    Post #517. I used a late model Camry resevoir, and placed it directly behind the passenger headlight. Just ordered DM-6/AFR gen 3 combo, released by PLX yesterday, as well as a second DM-6 along with the vac/boost sensor. Just *slightly* more broke now...
