I was inquiring this company about a forced induction kit and this is their reply email below.

"Yes we are interested. What we offer is to use your car as a template, to develop a few parts. When we are done, will give you a set for free. But you will need to pay a little bit money for our mechanic for labors (around $500). We will supply the parts for free. Once we made the kit, we will put your car back to stock and send the parts to manufactures, once they are made, then give you the free set ( the process takes about 8 to 10 weeks to have product).

We will need your car for about 2 weeks.

For sure we can make a downpipe, and exhaust catback. For turbo kit, we don’t know how much room it has, so need to see it first. If it is doable, then we will do it. if not, we will do the simple parts.

Let me know if you are interested".

FYI.

do eeet!

those guys are the one that made the kit for the xb2's... i've seen and met the guys. Good dudes.

where is this place located?

The area code is 626, so I'm guessing somewhere in Riverside county here in California.

finally, something to spend the next tax return on!

go for it, my kit is custom i can help u if you have any questions...

yet again, californians get the opportunity to be the prototype, lol. any updates, slvbk?

My apologies, I've been really busy lately with my new job. Anyways, I haven't contracted with CX Racing myself for any parts or kits, but many people are inquiring me about them. I'm not sure if anyone has jumped on the opportunity, but if I hear anything I'll definitely let you guys know. From its website, it seems that they are located in El Monte, CA.

for what its worth, just got a hold of these guys today, and they WERE interested in making a kit after getting a lot of requests, but when it came time for payment, a lot of people backed out... said to check back early next year and see if hes changed his mind.

thats what happens when u leave cali in charge of things ;P

haha!

well if someone get ahold of them again and they want to do it ill front the cash.... i have the cash in hand right now.... : ) so if someone wants to set it up ill be the test mule

Well I don't now anything aboout them making a kit for the xd but heres a link to thier site. www.cxracing.com

I still have my eye on the xb2 kit but I was hopeing someoe would come forward with it and a review on it before taking the plunge. I've heard talk of someone local with it but have yet to see anyne run thier kit. The 240sx boards have decent reviews on thier kits, many people bash em but the people actually runing them have nothing bad to say. G'luck and cant wait to see your setup if you go through with it.

...prices are good too, almost ridiculous.

I recently installed the CXR XB2 kit and am very pleased with it for the money. There were no instructions but the fitment was very good and the few parts that were missing from the original shipment were quickly shipped by CXR without any hassle or extra cost. The biggest fitment issues were the MAF mount and the battery. I had to make a MAF adapter plate from 1/8" aluminum bar stock (home depot) and replace the oversized 35 oem battery with a smaller 26R. Considering that most 2x cost XB2 kits have problems with the DP hitting the lower radiator hose, I consider these issues to be minor. The kit works as advertised and customer support was great.

The biggest catch 22 is that there is no technical support to speak of. If you think you can work it all out yourself, have a friend who can or are willing to pay someone to install it, it's a great kit for the money. If you need a perfect fit and someone to walk you through the install and setup, it may not be for you.

maybe we can get this company interested now with the death of the turbotoyotas project...

we need something!!!! our poor xDs! I swear... if a kit doesn't come out by next spring, I am going straight to turbotricks here in Jersey and I am going to have them fab a kit for me.

A nice manifold would be great. That's the most complicated piece of the kit. The rest can be easily put togeather.

Also, don't forget the Management... The AEM FIC is our best shot, but no one has installed one yet on this car...


If those 2 things can be sorted out... then custom is the way to go.

I don't think we will see a "complete" xD Turbo kit on the market any time soon.


Custom FTW!!!


BTW I adquired an used AEM from a guy who failed installing in on a Yaris. I will give it a shot and see if I can get it to work on my NA car. If it works then I'll start piecing my own kit.
If it doesn't work I also have a NX nitrous kit on the way as a power back up :lalala:

Theres no reason why it shouldnt work on the xD... Yaris... Corolla.. etc.

Has anyone bugged Dezod or PT tunning about taking a look at the xD?


They probably look down at us but I would buy a kit from any of them in a heartbeat! And I know a few other would also...

HAHA i would take out another credit card just to order the Dezod kit!

x2!!

cant we get someone life from fsr to fabricate us a manifold. since I believe thats the missing piece to completing the turbo kit.

turbo-kits.com

You can order a manifold from a 1ZZ celica kit... i think the price is between 4 and 500.

It will bolt up to the block, but thats as much as I know

i dont think it would do the trick to get a turbo kit running though.

It will bolt onto the block, the rest is up to us or a shop. Its possible. If it doesn't get done this year, I will make sure it gets done by next season assuming all goes according to plan

sounds good to me. might aswell save up lol

CXR already has a cast manifold for your engine. You guys really should talk to Kevin about making a kit for you.

Thats actually not for our cars, our block is the 2ZR-FE

Are you having any issues with your kit at all?

What turbo are you using?

My bad. I didn't know there were so many 1.8L variants.

The only issues I'm having are due to 20% larger injectors, lack of EM and are fairly minor. The car runs great with ~6psi but the ecu fueling is not ideal. Too lean (14.7:1) in closed loop, hesitates a bit during CL to OL transition, starts out a bit rich (10:1) in open loop and ends up at 11.5:1 @6psi. Boomslang should have a XB-FIC PnP harness available very soon and I'm just waiting on that.

Having read a lot of threads about various turbo kits for the TC and XB, the CXR kit was a very easy install by comparison to most. The only fitment issue was the MAF mount which took me about an hour to correct.

I'm still running the Chinese T3/T4 that CXR included. It's a 50 trim 60/63AR with adjustable internal WG, 3" inlet, 2" outlet and 2.5" V-band exhaust. No problems so far but I've only got about 2000 miles on it.

^^ That manifold is actually for the mid 80s Toyota Corolla 1.6L rwd. 4AGE - AE86 cool car
