Completed Turbo pics! 56K death

[UfoZ]

Alright guys, I know Ive kept you waiting forever but here are the pics of the completed turbo setup on the Scepter. Im in the process of uploading a short in-car video (courtesy of ZoniCamry.com) and will post the link to that once it's done. Youll have to excuse the slightly dirty engine bay... Its been raining nonstop here in stupid SoCal.

Here is my mod list, in case youre wondering:
CT-26 Turbo with internal wastegate (rebuilt and bead blasted)
Precision 450hp intercooler
HKS SSQV Blow off valve
Turbo XS Dual Stage manual boost controller (low-8psi high-11psi)
3S-GTE MAP sensor
3S-GTE turbo manifold
3S-GTE oil pan
Greddy oil sandwich adaptor
Greddy oil catch can
Accufab 1-1 adjustable fuel pressure regulator
Custom intercooler piping
Custom 2.5" downpipe/deleted cat
Custom 2.5" turbo back piping
Veilside Teardrop stainless exhaust

And the pics:

You can pretty much see everything in this picture, Optima yellowtop, CT-26, K&N filter, Intercooler piping, HKS SSQV, Greddy catch can, Turbo XS DSBC, Accufab adjustable FPR, etc etc:


Closeup on the Turbo XS dual stage boost controllers, Greddy oil catch can, and HKS blow off valve. Right now low boost is set at 8psi and high boost is set at 11psi. I wont be doing much driving at 11psi though... Probably wont last too long like that.


Accufab adjustable 1-1 fuel pressure regulator:


Closeup on the Accufab. This thing is literally 4 times the size of the stock FPR. Also, look below and to the right of the FPR. You see that little purple fitting right there? Its an HKS fitting and cost me 50 bucks. $50!!! Im going to be salty about that for a while.


Couple shots with the intercooler in sight:




All youll be seeing thatll let you know what's going on under the hood...


Actually, this is all youll be seeing. And youll hear a loud Pssshhht! Jk, Im not that cocky, but the car is pretty quick now.



Hopefully Ill be able to take the car into Autolink sometime next week for a little dyno tuning action and get some numbers. Ill update this post in a little while when Ive uploaded the video I made.

EDIT: Here is the video... Hopefully it works -

edited edit: Now it definitely works:

Yay! I got the first view.

It looks sweet.

Any plans to get a kit to hide that exaust and to make the FMIC look a bit better. Well, make it look like its inside the body and not sticking out.

[PtBaller]

That is SEX

[UfoZ]

Yeah, I have a kit that I plan on putting on. Just a front bumper though. But damnit! I dont have time! And the stupid rain just wont stop around here...

[Velocity]

Congratulation! Looks like an awesome set up.... Doesnt it bother you that the I/C seems to sit unprotected lower than your bumper? Looks great though man!

[Warped]

I know I keep saying it, but I love your car dude. Everything fits so well.

[DrtySthV6SE]

look good but you deff need to get that new front bumper,

[CamNub]

What bumper? Is there a mesh hiding the IC or is it open?

Actually, yes it does bother me a lot. Im probably going to end up having to just drop off the bumper on Friday to get it color matched and then going in later to install it.

I already test fitted the new bumper and the intercooler will sit perfectly inside of the opening. I also didnt want to have to cut into my bumper support to mount the intercooler. Im not willing to sacrifice my safety for it. Plus, if I did that, then it wouldnt fit right with the new bumper. Have patience kids, it shall be on soon.

Wow Bro, nice looking turbo pics... it will be fun to see/hear the video!

It is cool to see a TN member with a goal, a car, and acomplishing a goal with the car...

[warlock]

[Durrby]

That's P.I.M.P. Allen. Can't wait to hear/see the video as well. Also can't wait to see the front bumper.

[UfoZ]

OK guys... Bear with me here because I suck at working with these damn fancy calculators. But I think I did it right. This should be the link to the video:

Let me know if it works. And dont bag on my camera skills. Its hard to steer, shift gears, and hold that damn camera all at once.

[CamNub]

Mount the camera to a hat.
