Re: turbo toyota done! pics/vid at the end O0

Wow, this ---- totally made my day. ------- awesome build up, hilarious ------- replies from the **** on h-t. I guess they don't know that true pride in your car is building it from the damn ground up, by hand, using what you have available. If it makes you feel any better, everyone ragged on my custom flux-core shackle lift/rear end swap I did on my old isuzu trooper (probly didn't help that I used tin snips and a sawz-all to trim my fenders), but it worked.

Re: turbo toyota done! pics/vid at the end O0

See the vac lines going into the top of the mechanical fuel pump? They get boosted, too, and it ups the pump's ability to push fuel into a pressurized carb float bowl because the fuel pump is now pressurized, too.

In these two shots you can see the modifications necessary to the mechanical fuel pump. Basically a fitting is threaded or epoxied in this case to the atmospheric vent on the side of the pump. I added two in this case to ensure adequate pump operation at high RPM. The other end of the hose is connected to the bonnet, BEFORE THE CARB, this is required. With this modification fuel pressure to the carb is increased 1 psi for each psi of boost to maintain fuel flow into the carb under boost. This can also be done with a high pressure electric fuel pump and a boost referenced regulator. Also seen here are the turbo oil supplys from the oil sending unit location in the engine block.

HP electric fuel pump and boost referrenced regulators cost money. You can shoplift JB weld, drill bits and hose barbs. Welcome to HMT, nig nog, you're doing a fine job despite being close friends and gay lovers with Yuriney and Sinister.

I wouldnt really recomend that....PVC piping emits a deadly gas when heated....which would be pulled into the cabin of the car where you are sitting..not good

deadly gasses= not fun

very nice setup, just i wouldnt want the pvc, as the gasses emited from it would be harmful to your health (ie, death)

the gases are MAINLY emitted when the PVC is burning, there is a .000001 percent chance of someone dying from using PVC in their turbo setup unless it actually catches on fire. yeah yeah it releases hydrogen chloride before it ignites, but still, the amount is miniscule, especially if you arent sitting under the hood inhaling right over the hot piping.

Oh, totally. That wasn't the problem though. The problem was that the edges of the fenders weren't straight (almost wanna say jagged... like, just not rounded) since I didn't try hard enough to get it exact. My wheels rubbed a hell of a lot less though!
