Well after so long of waiting i finnaly got my turbo kit together. Pictures are really detailed
so i hope everyone can see. The whole process was custom fabricated by East Side muffler.










I already have my greddy e-manage i just need to find someone to tune it for me. then a new clutch and flywheel along with an arc induction box. The manifold was made by rev hard. I apoligize because its so messy still but i havent had time to clean the engine because its been raining here in so cal. please give feedback

 

Wow, thats pretty nice. How mucxh did all that cost you? looks great. how much boost?

 

the design of that manifold is quite impressive

 

impressive but why did u re-use the stock airbox?

 

East side mufler only works with steel and not aluminum so they couldnt fabricate the housing the the sensor goes. Rite now im running about 6 lbs and the reason is because i dont have my car tunned yet so i dont want to push it.

 

nice man.

 

Very nice, im going to start buying the parts for my custom turbo kit i hope it goes well like yours.. the one thing i dont like is that we have to cut the front bar for our intercooler

-Dan

 

not if u get a long and thin intercooler

 

Thats my babys car... it feels good its fast! it pulls me back to the seat! nice

 

Two things -

Bring it to Pep Boys in Simi on Thurs when I'm back at work, I want to see this thing!

Also my friend has a Dynocom in-ground dyno in Chatsworth and I'll hook you up. He's tuned a turbo 2.4L in a Solara that made over 200hp on stock injectors, stock exhaust, just the turbo kit with his tuning on the Emange, he's the man for the job.

So he knows the Toyota 2.4L VVT-i engine.

PM me for info

 

show off xPPP

nice htouhg seriously

-taek

 

why not show off when you have it?

 

hey dj4monie im going to have to call you up on that for sure cause i need it tunned aight but i think im working thursday so i might not be able to but ill see.

 

Yeah, that part of the intake pipe is not easy but conquered here.

 

I just PM'ed you.

 

you sure it was a 2.4L solara? I know a friend that turbo with a 2.2L turbo solara. Do you have pics of the solara?

 

Nice manifold!

Now get that bad boy ceramically coated with Jet-Hot 2000.

They gave me an estimate of $85 dollars. Your manifold will not only look much better, but it last longer, stay cooler and give you better performance.

Nice kit. What are all the parts you used, because I have been putting a custom kit together too and was curious what you used? Also any problems with the turbo? I have turboed non turbo cars before and my last one was a pain, so any advice would be great.

 

Would this manifold be able to be used with other turbo kits such as zpi, dezod, etc.?Anyone know?

 

Probably not easily.. I'm assuming that's a T3 flanged manifold, which wouldn't work with our turbo.

I'm not sure what the benefit to having that manifold over a log manifold is?
