I have a similar setup to you, with a 3" y-pipe, but stock IC and piping. Same problem, put an MBC on it the same way you did, and immediately boost went from ~12psi to 15-16, even on the lowest setting. I had to remove the boost controller when I got down to the lower Vegas elevation, as I was...
I much prefer having the temp probe drilled into the water neck. If you know someone who can weld onto aluminum for ya, have them attach a bung to your water neck, and use a screw in style probe.
Wouldn't it be easy enough to get a flat plate, trace out the factory floor mat, and perhaps add a bit of length to account for the upward bend toward the firewall?
Give it a shot, worst that can happen is you kill a cone or two... seems like fun to me. :)
However, that said, you wouldn't sword fight with a sledge hammer would you? ;)
Hey, don't feel too bad man, I lost to a straight up thug (hoon, I guess, would be the Aussie equivalent?) in a Cavalier who pulled up beside me and revved the shit out of his little 4 banger. Pretty sure it was bone stock. He took off on me, and I was left contemplating dropping it to second to...
Does your brain always come up with such crazy ideas? Wouldn't that mean that most ethnic groups would go extinct pretty quick?
Also, which one of you guys stole my assless chaps this time?
I never understood the idea that they could speed to come after you. I mean, if I pass a stationary cop on the highway, going roughly the speed limit (or slightly above), how fast does THAT guy have to go to catch up to me? If it's safe for THEM to go that fast, why is it unsafe for ME? :nono:
Roughly $100 for rent, as I currently live with my parents, and $125 for storage for a 12x20 unit. Mortgage payment is looking like it's gonna be about $850. A bit more, but everything is going to be much more accessible, and I'll have a lot more space. Win win if you ask me.
Where? The white thing?
And Kai, that's ridiculous that people are posting all that. You're giving me even more reason not to get on FB. Apparently everybody posting that kinda forgot that they got their comeuppance for the attacks on Pearl Harbor, in a big way at that.
This. If you have an aftermarket exhaust, you're probably not going to hear the fan much. I only notice mine if I get out of the car.
I believe the "ok/middle" zone on the stock gauge is something like 175° F to 235°-ish. Not exactly what I'd call accurate.
As for my setup, the e-fans I'm...
I would suggest getting a different car for a daily unless you wanna be an 18 year old working 20 hours a week making ~$300 every two weeks with a broken Supra... ask me how many times I've seen that happen around here. ;)
Any time you have a piece of rubber that's not lubricated for that long, you're bound to have dried up and cracked rubber all over. The car would need plenty of work just to get going 'right'. Makes me wonder how much that would cost, if you could even get all the seals needed...
Thanks for adding me Grim, makes me wonder what I could get out of the stock twins with another 4-5psi... Trying to see if I can get in on the local dyno up at the college. Not sure if they're open for public use though.
Well said man. What do HRE's run for these days? A few years ago, I never even would have considered it viable to even think about them, but I've always liked their styles.
