    PS tube thingimajig....

    Go to Toyota and grab an NA Filter Stud (about $20 I think) ditch the horrible GTE bracket totally and your new adaptor will screw directly onto the block!

    LOL just killing time here till my machine shop opens! I think you need both as one is the hardware the other is the hose clamps and fittings!

    PS tube thingimajig....

    PS tube thingimajig....

    Ingy: Yep give it a good clean out and it'll be fine! As Kurt(S90T) said the stock engine cooler is perfect as a PS Cooler! I only bought a new one as I ran out of room to mount the stock engine cooler!

    Running without an innercooler??

    All depends on the system you buy but Charlie is correct with mine it's a totally self contained unit! Some of the Drag type systems just use a box that you fill with Water and Ice. Best analogy I can think of is everyone's played with a bicycle pump and held their finger over the end and...

    7MGE Shortblock

    LOL I'm on the "Whatever works" team! ;) I think 1 set of squirters per engine is enough! (This is after that horrible excuse for an Oil Cooler Circuit it fixed)

    Getting credit SUCKS

    Seems to be a fact of life that they'll happily offer credit to you once you don't actually need it! I'd be very careful and make 100% certain you can meet any repayments before trying any of the suggested ideas as get it wrong once and you're screwed.

    Running without an innercooler??

    ROFLMAO Jay point taken! ;) I can't understand why someone would remove an IC to do this if it's already fitted!

    Running without an innercooler??

    Jay: I don't think it would be anywhere near detonation @ stock boost levels with no IC. I've ran lots on motors in the past with no IC to quite high levels of boost with no issues, all depends on tune/fuel/timing and any bandaids that are needed to make it work. You just limit the...

    Running without an innercooler??

    You'll limit the amount of boost you can run before detonation. Compressor outlet temps will always be much higher than Ambient temp so an IC is always going to make a difference in charge density/power output. I have a spare 7M I'll build to transplant into my daily driver/beater/work...

    This worth $850?

    How does that work? Here if you don't declare it's a turbo and have an accident the Insurance Company will void your policy.... :(

    7MGE Shortblock

    I've ran the GTE pump in my last 2 NA/t's and it's well worth the peace of mind of 30+ psi @ idle!
