Haha cheers scott only couple of days now till i get to hear this lil baby scream :)mestamp='1316611486' post='6026347']

Ohh la la, look at that.

Now I am confident you will be a happy chappy :)

Lets see you crank some boost through it hey hey hey hey ;)

Just looked under my car and this dump pipe looks like its to suit a high mount manifold the offset from the turbo flange down to the flange that bolts up to your cat looks wrong im bolting it onto the standard headers :domokun:

Can anybody confirm this PLEEEEASE?

Gunna call liverpool exhaust and see what they say tomorrow because they made it

looks like its to suit a standard manifold to me. impossible to tell for sure from pics, but definately not to suit highmount.

The bit that heads up to the turbo does look longer than normal.... I think it might be to suit a high mount.

Not yet! Bottom end is in for machining / balancing at the moment, I should have it back next week. I still need to send the head off for a service. Then it's assembly time!

You get your car running with the gtx mate?

DVS JEZ and Mick_o have been hard at it all day, it is all installed and they are heading out to do the road tune soon.

Hopefully Mick can give us a bit of an update later tonite or tomorrow.

Full credit to Jez for patiently working through the issues that modifying cars can throw at you.

Thanks Andrew, glad u were there to give me a few neat little tricks especially the one on how U remove the side feed injectors from the rail. Loved that one.

Did a tiny bit of road tuning. Was wet and scary, but so far so good. Turbo is nice and responsive and has an awesome sound.

I just got home and left at 6 this morning. So a 16hr day. I couldnt leave micko there without getting it finished, i could tell he had been itching to drive it since he started ordering all the parts.

A big thanks to Jez for his effort today absolutely massive mate im cheering u are a champion :) sorry bout the onions i guess the saying once u go black u cant go back doesnt apply to onions hey? Lol i also want to thank Andy for dropping in and saying hi, checking up on us and giving us some helpful tips and especially for delivering my new cat Haha much appreciated mate.

We peaked 13.5psi tonight very briefly before the wheel spin in the wet.

My car did feel a bit livelier down low than your current setup but obviously hard to say without traction and proper tuning .

Was shocked how much my exhaust note changed from stock turbo and bodgey gutted cat to what i have now sounds awesome!

Cant wait for full tune and E85!

Think its gunna be a tough lil street package :)

Thats a bugger mate but i can tell you that you will be happy with your turbo selection from my first feel of my car today and the sound is good too :)

    • If doing that ^, I'd take the idle up valve out and plug the hole in the pump.
    • 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
