Blast from the Past - My old Turbo Camry...

Blast from the past, I was looking through some old pics and stumbled on my camry pics. I found all the pics from the Turbo project...

Man what I know now, if I knew then....

1) Colored wire wrap shit is not cool...
2) Advance Auto rubber oil drains cause fire...
3) Stock Exhaust system limits the CT26 to 4psi... open wastegate = 12psi...
4) Aluminized intercooler piping... is well.. cheap
5) 1g BOV sounds like shattered glass, it was cool though..
6) Camry's need coilovers to look low...
7) +42 offset is weak as fuck
8) Highschool Fatty McButter Cakes shown in the pics, damn I was fat.

Anyways onto the pics.































































































After fixing my exhaust/boost issue - 8psi..CT26 ran out of steam.


Some pics when it was cleaned up...

It put down pretty good numbers for a turbo 5S-FE.

i thought you'd complain and say it's still a 3200 lb car with less whp than the V6 and that he should get a mr2 with a v6 swap.

and at the same time, you did what most of the community couldn't do. Well, excluding the fact that your car caught on fire lol
