What are your goals of your build (power-wise)?

I think he wants to hit 400 first, then go from there

Right now my goal is around 400whp. I'll have to decide later if I want to go for more. I was planning on going more but with getting screwed and loosing money with this whole ZPI thing I might not push much more.

NICE! I'm debating between the Stage 4 or Stage 5 Comp.
I know the 5 holds more, but the 4 supposedlty has much smoother engagement. What tq is the 5 rated for?

Oh, and yeah, some tranny parts and suspension parts are borrowed from the celica.

paul_dezod

I'd say 5 holds about 440 ft/lbs of TQ or so in the current configuration. Jeff's car made 454whp & 460wtq with the Stage 5 disc, and it held. The disc & plate sure took some abuse, but are alive and well.

Mr_Meaty

Nice! Thanks. Do you know what the 4 is good for?

^^^Stock tune....

Right Paul?

Mr_Meaty

What the hell are you talking about?
His car's not even built yet? how would he have any sort of tune on there?
And what the hell is a stock tune anyway?

I think he meant base tune... But, I don`t understand where that came from...

forpinks

I meant the stock 161 flywheel HP on the tC... (I think it can handle 370 lb. ft. TQ...)

LOL!

^only person in the history of a tc who thinks we have enough torque outta the factory to warrant a stage 4 clutch

forpinks

The stage 4 clutch can take 370 lb. ft. TQ... I never said anything about the tC getting 370TQ stock!

Mr_Meaty

What does this have to do with tuning?

djafropiq

nor did i

Hasn't anyone learned yet? 4pinks just likes to ruin everyone's threads, just ignore him. I mean seriously...why would Toyo put a stock clutch in that can hold 370tq like 4pinks qouted "I meant the stock 161 flywheel HP on the tC... (I think it can handle 370 lb. ft. TQ...) " And how in the name of hell would a stock map / base map be able to achieve 400whp. enough said.

Side note: Congrats Paul! Glad to see your finally getting the treatment you deserve man. I don't think it needs to be said....butttttttt....Dezod/TT FTMFW! Oh, didn't see it in the post, might have overlooked it, but you are getting an LSD for her right ;)

forpinks

DAMN IT! THE STAGE 4 IS THE THING YOUR ASKING ABOUT... SO I TYPED THAT IT SHOULD HOLD 370 ft/ lbs. of torque easily!

DAMN IT! ALSO, THE ECM IS FLASH TUNED FROM THE FACTORY, HOW THE HELL COULD THE tC MAKE 161HP IF IT NEVER GOT TUNED... (YOU THINK THE ECU IS BLANK DON'T YOU???)

amdforever

First...thats not how you worded it and no...I wasn't asking about it

Two...DUH we all know the ECU is "tuned" at factory, no one is that dumb...well I might take that back What I said...which obiviously you did not read/comprehend is that the STOCK map / BASE map {note they are "tuned" and come equipped with the car } would NOT be able to achieve 400whp. Now if I'm not mistaken, I believe you opted for the upgraded ECU since your stock tC is so fast

Oh, and CAPS LOCK is not your friend buddy.
