i usually disagree with you, but your right about this one. haha. "zpi man"

 

thats what i always thought. brett and one of the dezods thought is was twin turbo, i was thinking audi tt

 

Didn't scion-speed claim they put down 426hp on a stock engine. they have a youtube video saying that.

 

Did it make it off the dyno...

 

in pieces, yes

 

omnifab with t t4 flanged turbo @10 psi on a stock engine did make 340whp. turbotoyotas with a t3 @ 10 psi on a stock engine made 330whp. the big difference between the two, other than the obvious size of turbo, and the hydra ecu. the turbotoyotas kit cost about $4,000 cheaper.

 

Which brings up an interesting point... Do the numbers mean more than the price, or should the price be considered as well? After all, the Omifab turbo made 10 extra HP, but for $4000, you could easily get those 10 hp and then some. But that wouldn't be included with the 'kit'.

 

as far as the thread is titled. omnifab has the biggest turbo in their kit. so obviously they would be the most powerful. but i could think of alot better ways to spend $8,500.

 

Yep, right before it blew up.

 

You gotta think about spool time too

 

and compressor surge.

 

Line up the omnifab gt37 vs tt's gt28


imma bet on the gt28 making less power and winning the race

 

Turbo Toyota FTMFW.

 

Doubt it is $4000 cheaper. Also you have to look at the components you are getting. Are you getting a Tial 44mm gate? Tial Blow Off Valve? Also, keep in mind our turbo spools up almost as fast as the turbonetics kit which uses a far smaller turbo and runs FAR cooler. This tells you our IC design and turbo both help with keeping the radiator cool and the turbo is more efficient without having to run as much boost pressure. We have no compressor surge and spool up is excellent with flawless drivability. Lastly, are you getting AN fittings and steel braided lines with any of the other kits for both feed and drain lines? Are the IC pipes bead rolled? Are the clamps stainless t bolts? All these details is what sets different kits apart. By the way our turbo kit is NOT a T4 flange. It is actually a DSM 2.5 inch inlet on the flange. Our manifold will work with a 16G turbo also should someone want to piece a lower cost kit together.

 

yes toods kits come with steel braided oil feed and return lines, tial 44mm wg, bead rolled piping, and t bolt clamps. and yes it is alot cheaper. check his website if you dont belive me. as for your turbo not being t4 flanged, i apologize for the error. most gt37's are t4 flanged, so i hope you could see the confusion on my part.

 

Guru, everyones kits come with that you just minus bead rolled piping. Not sure if TT's does or not but everything else is the same.

 

Definately not $4000 cheaper. Sadly it uses a tiny IC core. It also makes 43 ft lbs of torque less than our kit at the same boost pressure. Also it does not include a 3 inch s pipe in that kit. Only downpipe. Lastly we use schedule 10 piping on our manifolds. They are the beefiest thickest wall and most solid manifold you will find anywhere for the Tc. It is one reason we offer a lifetime warranty on it.

 

8500 for a turbo kit for a tc is hell of alot of money. I believe its out of range for your typical tc owner. Don't expect it to be flying off the shelves

 

What does your manifold look like again?

 

wtf are you talking about?? i does come with a 3" s-pipe. i'll post up pics of mine. or you could check out 318_tc's thread and see his. and how is a kit that costs $4200 not 4k cheaper than a kit that costs $8500??? also there is nothing wrong with todd's manifolds. considering his background at full race, i think he knows what he is doing.[/b]
