Update on my turbo project

[Camryamnesty]

well, since my last thread was locked, im starting a new one, my turbo wastegate, and blow off valve was received today, along with my new walbro 190 lph fuel pump, and my intercooler piping. and i have a pic to show for it, since last time i had nothing to show....

So here it is




I purchased on ebay, and this is the ebay pic, i received the items the same way as shown.


According to the 5sfte thread stickie:

-Turbo (ct26 or other)
-Manifold (factory 3sgte is good with the ct-26)
-Intercooler – 3s is not going to work on the camry – buying a good front mount will serve you well in time
-Piping - this needs to be custom made… you can go the massive silicon coupler route, but welding hard pipes is going to make connections stronger
-Injectors (Supra NA) PART # 23250-70080 are often used – a 360cc+ will be good and Toyota has a few stock models there
-2bar MAP SENSOR(factory 3s) Part # 84420-17030
-Custom Downpipe must be made, the 3s downpipe does NOT WORK ON THE CAMRY with the location of the motor mount on a camry vs. mr2…)
- Blow Off Valve to fight compressor surge
- Boost Gauge – even though creep is not big on the ct-26, helps out
- Exhaust work to match to DP/Cat assembly, custom fab again
- Oil, Water/Coolant lines to and from turbo (3s if using ct26/mani, these can be ordered and custom fabbed though)
- tapping the oil pan for oil return – Ufoz also said you CAN swap to the 3sgte pan - if you are a non-cali 5sfe
- Misc. Rubber/Silicon hose for turbo fiitings…
- 1:1 FPR for the camry’s
- some sort of tuning management – I opted for the greddy emange, others are out there, seems like a good deal of people have the Apexi SAFC (AF) + MSD BTM (timing) to tune… this is virtal to keeping the system alive working on this part
- new spark plugs, colder heat range ( see the bottom of the post)

Options you are going to want
- Air/Fuel Ratio Gauge (wideband is what you want to tune, great investment- narrow band is not really helpful)
- EGT gauge helps for tuning also, especially in conjunction with the AF monitoring
- Oil pressure gauge (more monitoring the better)
- Boost Contoller (electronic seems to be a good investment, don’t get stupid on stock internals)
- Turbo Timer for controlled shut down of car
- oil catch can - avoid the nasty oil burn out the exhaust, catch the blowback
- Metal head gasket (Toyota 5sfe metal is good)
-Aftermarket Clutch..THIS SHOULD BE A MUST! – trust me my stage I was not very good at first…
- Building the motor is great, Internals, Pistons, Rods, rings etc. (if you have access to a separate 5s… a buildup outside the car will be good, then drop it in later after you have finished that up, so less downtime on the car)

looking good......cant wait till it has finished

190lph?? What sized fuel injectors are you getting? What are you power goals?
That's a ct26 turbo?

[RedPhoenix]

lol im confused, what turbo did you buy?

[Camryamnesty]

Well, 190 lph is enough for about 400 hp, im not expecting to be even close to that with 315 cc injectors, ill be ok

[Camryamnesty]

well, i have to frabricate an adapter to go between the manifold and turbo inlet, to mount my wastegate, and also because the flanges on the turbo, and on the manifold are different so tehy do not bolt up correctly, i plan on doing this by using 3/8" thick square tubing 4"x4"x6"

Weld flanges on each end, and and weld the wastegate flange on the side, this way the wastegate will be on the side, and the dump tube will run straight into my down pipe.

I also have to fabricate a flange for the exhaust to mate with the turbo, because i did not receive one with the turbo.

I am trying to talk my boss into getting me a 3sgte map sensor, for free but doesnt seem to be working.... (He got his damn scion tc wheels for free) $900 compared to $200 employee price.

oh, well if its a ct26 then ok

is that a T3 turbo? if so - you might want to look up SFP manifolds (south florida performance)

they have external WG flanges on the manifolds, and T3 output also, so you don't need to run an adapter to the stock 3s manifold

might save you some time, headache, and looks on your applicationSFP

EDIT* here is there site http://sfp.net/

Thanks for the resource, but their store is "temporarliy closed"


And Actually its a t4 turbine Which is why they dont bolt up, but im not worried about it i will work
