    T61 Bolt on Turbo by Cx Racing

    Paradox's 7mgte mk3

    removed the spare wheel, jack and some other heavy items in the boot, also keeping fuel level at 1/3 full, with the reduced weight the clutch holds most of the time. @ 15psi Since fixing boost issues the turbo comes onto boost quicker and therefore there is less torque shock also. I'm still...

    CT26 turbo sounds almost like a compressor?! High pitch air flow sound when boosting!

    ahh i get you now, can you remove the compressor housing of the ct26 when you get it off (just a circle clip) im intrested to know if yours looks the same as mine.. only suggestion i have is look to make sure the airfilter is %100 intact / and there are no contaminants on the inside of the...

    CT26 turbo sounds almost like a compressor?! High pitch air flow sound when boosting!

    i think you mis-understood me, your turbo is now unbalanced.. replace it before you drive the car again. go looking for shards of metal that may be lurking in your intercooler piping just waiting to wreck your motor / exhaust wheel... oil that pooled in the intercooler side tank caught mine and...

    CT26 turbo sounds almost like a compressor?! High pitch air flow sound when boosting!

    IJ, Excuse my ignorance, what is Turbo FOD? (my guess is turbo fodder?) looks exactly like what happened to my ct26, id go looking for missing fragments of compressor wheel. FYI - The noise is known as Death whine. Here is what happened to mine Crap photo but you can see many scratches here

    Roadboy's 350hp build

    Looks good! you don't need cams to get 400rwhp... installing cams will change the entire profile of the motor so if you do make sure you do your homework. Good luck with the build

    T61 Bolt on Turbo by Cx Racing

    nah the hose clamp dug in on a funny angle and sliced it, it wasn't a ebay one either :( all the little and time consuming things were done on the dyno such as idle tuning, correction maps etc, a airleak only affects on boost, the tuner i use has a factory in the middle of a industrial estate...

    T61 Bolt on Turbo by Cx Racing

    It wasn't a pure waste of dyno time, i did perform a leak down test before i installed the haltech(car didn't get driven for 3 months?) with a small tyre air compressor which didn't reveal anything, only at 30psi into the intake charge did i notice any kind of leak, before I fixed my leaks the...

    T61 Bolt on Turbo by Cx Racing

    no i didn't..its been on my "todo" list for a while along side replace cooler pipes, My car runs on a map sensor anyway so leaks don't affect AFR's in the same way it as AFM's

    Cheers! yeah shadow grey in Australia is next to impossible to find, at first i didn't like blue all that much but i love it now especially with the two tone. found 2 major boost leaks! on the factory ecu i had issues boosting above 9psi on a stock ct26, and 4-5 psi on the T61, I got off my...

    T61 Bolt on Turbo by Cx Racing

    Success, think i found my spool issue! got my air compressor back from my parents place in the bush (lent it to them so they can pump up the tyres on the tractor etc) my air pressure regulator arrived in the mail today, i used PVC caps with a air compressor fitting tapped and threaded into one...

    Lefty loosey...right?

    I've mangled big breaker bar against the ground with the starter method on my daily, make sure you pull the EFI fuse, last thing you want is the motor starting with the balancer loose.... on my supra i put the car in gear to lock the crankshaft and undid the bolt with a big breaker bar with a...

    Paradox's 7mgte mk3

    the shocks are good, i will admit they could be a bit harder under the "sport/normal driving" but i think it has a bit to do with springs, when they firm up the dampening rate is good, makes suprise speed humps alot easier to deal with and speed humps in general, i cant compare them against...

I've...
