Fair play. Do you know the expected power?

well my mate ian at toyauto centre has the same turbo but with a larger exhaust housing and thats making prolly a good 600bhp (he had 180mph @8300rpm in fourth! redline is 9000rpm) that was at brunters whilst mapping and at only 2bar boost.

i am hoping for and will call it a day at 500bhp as i am still running stock rods and crank.

should have it mapped next week if it plays the game. fingers crossed

Out of interest, I noticed you have the factory oil/water cooler, are you staying with that setup? do you think it'll be enough???

I only ask as my engine has the same sort of thing (looks identical) and I have only ever worked on supras with oil/air coolers before....

wont be doing pod unfortunately as i found the radiator touches the turbo

having a custom one made but will be about 2 weeks

oil cooler should be ok although i will be monitoring temps on the SPA guage. might get a thermostatic sandwich plate and an oil cooler later (if i can find the room.

to be fair the car is being a biatch ATM, seems like it dosnt want to go ack together, if it had front wheels on the other day i swear id have pushed it down the road and torched it :P
