Well i'm lookin into a 57 trim upgrade. The shop i'm lookin at has it priced about $300 with garret GT compressor capable of 520-620HP. If the turbo needs a rebuild then its $650.00. And if you want the compressor and turbine and rebuild option it runs $975.00 and supports up to 720HP. Now do...

Well i went to NAPA this morning and got a radiator hose, what i thought would fit. Well as it turns out i was way off so i had to cut it quite a bit. I got it to fit so everything is working properly. I can't stress the difference in the car this has made. Its great. I noticed the tube is not...

Well my issue is a have dyno tuning scheduled for Thursday this week, and i can't move it b/c ill just have to wait another few weeks and this is my only car

Well i already have a intercooler system just not taht particular pipe :cry: : What Zach mentioned is what i was thinking but i wasn't sure what kind of pressure those hoses can take

I know i can get them from toyota but more of what i was asking was can i get them elsewhere ie NAPA, Autozone, Advanced or even just use some high pressure hose and cut to the length an auto store may have? how expensive are we talking here for factory replacement? Upgrade to what?

Well some of you were right (i wasn't sure though since i never had a turbo car) i have a boost leak......a bad one at that. The rubber pipe from the turbo to the metal elbow busted all around the clamp. I was wondering if this is a factory part because of its heavy useage/pressure or it could...

ok, my brother rode in the car with me and he had owned a supra previously and said the air he heard was WAY WAY too loud, so im going with boost leak like some of you said, now my next question is if there is one, when the boost begins...will the fuel cut right away??

well i got back to stock FP, and it idles better and my AF ratio isn't leaning so much now its more rich than anything. I find that in first and second it will let me go beyond 4K and boost little with quite a bit of vibration, in third and up the feul will just cut out and it will send you...

Oh woops, about 3100 was spent: ARP bolts, head: 145.28 ARP rod bolts: 53.67 Federal rod bearings: 26.87 Federal Mains: 57.54 Freeze plugs: 11.77 Oil pan set: 26.50 Shipping: 46.20 Standard shortblock assembly: 650.00 Tear down to machine/clean parts: 200.00 Hone block w/plate...

Mine ended up being about 3550 with similar stuff, 1500 of which machine work, ARP everything 2.0MM HG and performace bearings. I DONT have forged pistons/rods though :(

Thanks :bigthumb: for the help, ill check it out, and get on the FP ASAP. As far as the code 52, i read in the manual that was something related to starter signal??

understandable, it has direct contact

:cry: well pardon my ignorance as far as boosted engines are concerned, but we're well past basics here as the majority of the population can't even tell the difference between engine oil and trans oil. People come to these sites for information and help, you're welcome to join in. If in fact...

:bigthumb: Thanks for the offer but unfortunately the car is not drivealbe, i tried the other day and after 15 minutes of driving the gas pedal was seemingly non-repsonsive as i continually lost power for whatever reason, no matter the gear or RPM. I have a dyno tuning scheduled for the 5th so...

Really, i don't need these kind of comments, they don't help me. As i mentioned in my original quote "im not sure" and if i'm wrong feel free to inform me as i don't know much about the 7m block yet as im a brand new owner. I know the pistons are not directly cooled as they obviously can't be...

OH HAHA, i was thinking it was a part of the turbo which is why i was confused well i just found some instructions for my greddy spec II and i found the stock settings put boost at 0% vs. 100% which would be the wastegates stock pressure so im gonna mess with that late tomorrow when i'm...

What are couplers???

Well i adjusted the timing, it made a big improvement, i ran it maybe like 15 minutes and it started acting funny, like if i press of the pedal no response but if i take it off and put it back on it will GO. Once i hit about 3500RPM i hear ALOT of air, and then power slowly gets lost. I have a...

I DO have a FP guage but its not hooked up yet, personally im not sure how. I have an aeromotive FPR CKAnderson, how did not checking your feul cost you an engine?? *Ill check codes tom. Right now im in the middle of RE-timing, im going to do my best since i don't have a timing light. FP...

AFM yes,i havn't checked codes but if any were present wouldnt the check engine light come on??
