1988/92 Turbo Tercel **UPDATED MAY 2 2007 w/PICS**
WEll, its almost done now. Im just waiting now on some supra 440s and a MAP sensor then its good to go. Should be interesting to see if its going to start and run on the tune thats aklready in my SDS... probably going to need to make some major adjustments. Also going to be interesting to see if the Volvo fuel pump is going to be up to the task.
----, I cant beleive I was originally going to use blow through carbs.
I revised the FMIC piping, meaning its all inside the engine compartment now, and since I had to take the headlights out to put some new bumper bolts in I figured I might as well use the wuad round lights from my old car. The rad is a civic half rad from somthing like a 1998 from the wreckers ($15) and I was able to use the stock rad hoses from the Toyota so that was nice. I did have to make the rad mounhts though, and I can verify they are 100% ghetto to the fullest.
Anyways, Il post some more pics when I get a chance, Il take some with the turbo & piping installed this weekend, I just wanted to paint the pipes to help prevent rust (yeah right) .. and I think it might make it look a little bit nicer.

Re: ALmost there - 1988 Tercel **pics**
Il probably upgrade the headlights with a set of OE projectors from an E30 BMW... and I want those yellow european bulbs for the low beams.
