Any intercooler will work its just a matter of making it work.Street imports makes a great intercooler Mine is 21x9x3 and is plenty big.To big is not good either.Make sure you go with 2" inlet and 2.5" outlet and that should give you enough pressure!3" exhaust from turbo back.My intercooler was $300 usd. |

I ran mine to the back using 1 gauge wire left the battery grounds at the front and ran the power under the car thru the trunk and Then I used 1 gauge for the groung in the trunk and bolted it to the floor for a good ground.Now im making a floor cover out of carbon fiber to fit on the floor of the car to replace the carpet and the battery will be mounted to the carbon fiber.To all the guys going to put the batteries in the trunk please use 1 gauge wire because there is less resistance and easier power flow and wont heat up as easy and make sure you use the proper end fitting for those cables. |

If you cut the stock springs your car will ride fine for about a month then it will begin to bounce.If you are buying springs that are for lowering and cutting those your car will ride spongy not so much of the bounce.But do not take any more than a coil.Beaware that your struts will go for a **** eventually.In my opinnion just buy a good set of coil overs and your done. |

He's talking about doing a t6.Thats insane.Why would you want to build boost at 5000rpm.Stick with the smaller turbo and no bigger than a 47mm compresser wheel.And you will have more power thru the whole power band.People think that its faster because of the big power bang when a big turbo kicks in.WRONG you have no power down low and another car would take you out before your turbo kicks in.Its as simple as that.Bigger isnt always better.Your right about the cfms if its the right size turbo.The bigger the compressor wheel is the more power it will make.but smaller piping is more efficiant for the cfm running thru.It doesnt matter how many cfms , its how quick can I get it there to make the power! |

I think you are crazy for wanting that size of pipe.Its proven that a 2" inlet to the turbo and a 2.5" into the intake from the intercooler.Even thou some people might disagree turbo workes on pressure.Picture blowing thru a straw 3" its like nothing is comin out the other end.Now blow thru a smaller straw and now you have pressure.Same idea.The inlet to your intake should be bigger less restriction.I hope that made some sense to you before you buy something and it makes you car run like **** and not run to the performance that it should.Heres the breakdown 3" from maf to tb,then 2" out of turbo to fmic then 2.5" out of fmic to intake.Intercooler size im running 21x9x3. 2" inlets on it.Hope that that helps you! |

White always looks dirty.I would suddgest polished aluminum.It looks sick bling bling and light weight and goes with anything you put on your car.They will look more expensive for a reasonable price. |

Awesome cars for building power and there light.But I still wouldnt want to replace the motor after every 100,000km.If you blew a celica motor get ready to blow the rx7 up.Good luck! |

Why are you using a dual fuel rail set up?Couldnt you make a custom fuel rail and switch from side feed injecters to top feed and run supra aftermarket 600cc injecters and get the same performance?Just a question.And It still is sick Im just wondering? |

It feels like your suspension but its not its the frame not flexing as much as it used to.If you decide to get sway bars there is a huge difference like night and day! |

Im thinking of going the same route.When I started my swap people told me that I couldnt use a MR2 3SGTE ecu to run the alltrac motor and they said that I couldnt use my factory harness and I did And Im doing the same thing as you having to move the wire from pin to pin to make it work.The aem is probably the best standalone system around for our cars.But not to many people know this or dont want to spend the money.Im glad everything worked out for you and have some fun with it now after all the hard work! |

Add more fuel add more spark and make it breath better and thats a step in the right direction. |
