carbonboy Posted September 10, 2011 Report Posted September 10, 2011 Haha you know you want one ;) It is very very close to firing up, in respect just a surge tank and fittings stopping it :yes: :yes: :yes: Except with a 2nd hand TD04-L hanging off the end, not as badass as yours though... :wink: Looking forward to seeing vids of it running/Toyofest pics! Good luck in getting it ready! :y: Quote
Guest Casey-G Posted September 23, 2011 Report Posted September 23, 2011 So toyofest has been wrote off.. car just wont be quite running by then :( anyways.. shits been slowy getting done: Manifold and dump are now complete, just need to make one more brace for the turbo before i drive it. Upgraded all fuel lines to 8mm, allowed me to buy just one size of hose for everything except the intake for the 044 Also modded the fuel rail for 8mm lines, moving completely away from the factory regulator now, using a 450hp rated 1:1 reg. Re-mounted the electrics onto a single sheet of stainless, using a terminal strip it allows me to make changes easily to the system.. input/outputs ect.. Had a beer or several Modded my old screamer pipe to suit new location, still need to order a 2bar spring set. Just today saw most "bigger" jobs done, like facing the turbo manifold, welding up the vband and doing all the mods required for it to fit and assembling it all. Hopefully over the weekend ill get the fuel system sorted and turn her over for the first time in 5-6months :D anyways I'm a bit short on pics but meh: Quote
Guest Casey-G Posted October 8, 2011 Report Posted October 8, 2011 So yeah.. intercooler mounted, piping complete... not far off now eh Quote
