    Turbo Back Exhaust Systems?

    http://www.bicperformance.com/ has good downpipes(turbo->cat, some downpipes connect to a 'turbo elbow', these have it built in) From there you need a catalytic convertor and then a cat-back system.

    Rattle after boost

    Yeah, I was like 'WTF?????'. As soon as I get out of work I'm checking it out. And it's not metal clanging, it's more of like when you drop a bunch of pvc pipe or something. It runs and drives fine, other than not as much 'go' at full throttle.

    any atlanta people on here???

    My sister lives in Alpharetta and I come down from Chattanooga every now and then to visit. I'd be at Supra Shootout, but I'm low on cash till springtime. If you see a 2-tone blue 87 turbo/targa the beginning of Nov that would be me. My niece is expected around then so it's mandatory for me to...

    Rattle after boost

    I'm getting a strange rattle when I let off the throttle from boosting. It sounds like a bunch of plastic banging together on the turbo side of the engine. It just started last night, and I'm at work now, or I'd just tear into it. First thing I'm checking is the IC hoses(the one from...

    white smoke coming out of exhaust radiator resevoir overflo

    If it's a ton of smoke then it's most likely a bhg. On the way home when I blew mine I was blowing enough smoke to look like a James Bond style smokescreen(poor guy on a ninja got behind me at one light, didn't see him after the light turned green).

    Where do you mount YOUR turbo timer?

    Greddy Install PDF I have mine hard-wired in. Doesn't take long, just make sure you have some extra wire around(wires coming from the TT aren't long enough as-is even for mounting on the steering column). As for mount location, it's on the column for now, but I like the look of it under...

    7M or 1JZ?

    Tell me about it. It's like the Celica boards(3S vs 5S vs 7A vs 4A) and B18 vs H22 bs.

    Just a new guy

    Good to see another converted Celica owner. I came here after finally getting my MK3, having had 3rd gen(GTS) and 6th gen(ST) Celicas. The 3S swap wasn't just too much work, it was still FWD.

    What A Load Of Crap! I'm Pissed. How Bout You?

    Like I said, can't remember which issue(I gave all my old car mags to a friends son or I'd look it up). I know it was last year or earlier.

    What A Load Of Crap! I'm Pissed. How Bout You?

    There was a Super Street last spring(don't remember exactly which month) that had a White 89 from Canada. I don't care if something is in a magazine or not. They're just trying to sell their magazines. The MK3 has been out for a while and isn't 'new and shiny' anymore. Not to mention we have...

    Mk3 standard speaker sizes?

    Very small world. Did you ever go to the Pigeon Forge meets? I was only able to go to one and the Dragons Tail ride, and lost the Celica less than a week before going to another.

    Mk3 standard speaker sizes?

    I did the same to my 95 Celica. I even wrote the 'how-to' at 6gc.net. If there's one thing I miss about the Celica, it's the sound. But I'm sure I can make the Supra sound nice with some work, and it's already much faster :)

    TN roll call

    Didn't see this before. I'm in Chattanooga, with an 87 Targa Turbo. 2 tone blue(chipped front end).

    ECU pulling my timing

    I had a boost leak from the turbo to the intercooler that didn't drop my factory gauge, but did cause major power loss in boost.
