my buddies '92 Tercel that i built a turbo kit for last spring, using s TD04HL-15G turbo, Godspeed intercooler, Tial 38mm Wastegate, 3Bar Racing hybrid boost controller, SARD R2D2 bov, 2.5" mandrel-bend exhaust with a high flow cat & a MK5 GTI resonator as the main muffler, 4 check valves to keep the MAP from seeing boost, celica 195cc injectors, APEX-i SFAC & just guessing & hoping resulted in 130HP/144TQ

i don't have a scan of the dyno sheet, but that was with with the A/F around 12.2-12.5s & 9psi of boost...that far exceeded our expectations, the car hauls good, but we were guessing 100whp, dreaming 115whp, my ------- jaw dropped when i saw the numbers, i was speechless, my first ever turbo kit, works, pretty ------- good

heres a pic of the engine bay

next is to remove the sinktrap, make a custom manifold, T3 50-trim, more boost, Haltech standalone & hopefully near 200whp

& i may finally turbo mine now since i know i can make something that works pretty good

 

nice cheap build and something different.

I like looking at stuff like this.

Keep up the good work.

 

NICE! Did you bend that charge pipe on the right?

 

no its straight pipe. the bends are an illusion.

 

Sweet!

Sleeper

 

kickass

 

Sweet, up the boost and see what it really can do

 

Whole car pictures please.
I love boosted ---- boxes

 

+1

 

this is the only "recent" pic i can find of it...this was before it was turbo'd...the foglights were replaced by intercooler, but everything else is basically the same
