You'd be the only one on the planet that does!

Where they're choofing is where you should have a hard surge of power but because of the mismatched wheels they cant get the power out. Its like the power is in there trying to escape but it cant, if that makes sense

really??? With smaller turbos what top end could i get considering ill fit injectors at the same time and a tune. Or will i be better off making the most of what i have.

Its only a weekender and i dont mind the way it drives now but is it worth the expense of buying new turbos? Which ones should i get by the way?

Top end will stay the same.

You need to run 25psi+ to make use of -10s

20psi is just a warm up!

IMO, the turbo change is the better option. That said it is also the most expensive so only you can decide what suits you.

you will gain 1000rpm which for around $2500 (turbo swap + purchase - selling of -10).

It'll be the best value you'll ever see on a bang for buck scale.

Perhaps wait till Piggaz posts his results and see for yourself before deciding?

And I thought -5's were lazy on a 2.6!!!!

Yep, only way to see what your current setup will do 'safely' is to put it on the dyno and test while monitoring vitals.

Then let us know how it goes. :thumbsup:

Iv'e also got the GTRS (actual HKS ones) i picked up brand new for around 3k so just gonna see how they go, i know they will be laggy on the stock 26 but hopefully with cams, e85, ARC twin entry front mount and a light car they will work alittle :P

    • You can try capping the power steering idle up valve at both ends if it's old. The valve and the intake manifold. That is something that is known to fail in Toyotas with age and it will suck power steering fluid into the intake and burn it in the engine which can cause issues. Then bleed it again with engine off first. Do like 30+ lock to lock turns with the front wheels off the ground.
    • Hi Brent, I am wondering if you ever worked this out? I have upgraded this unit to a newer one and everything works bar the reverse camera, so i really want to know what plugs are what so I can patch the camera through. many thanks in advance Mike
    • Once you have to get up in the morning and be useful, you suddenly value sleep it turns out :p
    • Update:   smoke test all pipes no issues cleaned reservoir   fluid put in ( dexron 3 atf)   steering turn side to side and could hearing  gurgling from steering rack which I assumed was air lock, opened one of the steering rack connections and could see loads of air getting pushed out( not sure if you meant to do that / whether it will re introduce air into system)   anyways, loads of side to side sound was gone. Turned car on, pump was slightly ( barely) wining so turned side to side few more turns and fluid level when car on was almost none in resorvoir which I guess is normal if car is one. Turned car of and fluid was gushing out. Almost 200-300cc was pushed out. Repeated engine off side to side followed  by engine on and same result       going mad now. It seems system is either sucking air in whilst on or there is tons of air which I am not giving it enough time to bleed. Thoughts?   would it work like brake caliper if I open steering rack copper pipes and let gravity pull all air out?   or maybe have a restriction somewhere? What is the red circled item, could that be blocked? It i
    • Yeah, the plan is to just put some black rubber vacuum line caps over them to "hide" them a bit I don't want to trim them in cause I need to put the OEM box back on at some stage
