I'm still finishing up on the manifold. here are some progress pics. The piping will be the same as Eryns kit for the 7A-FE. Well it will be 50/50. from the turbo to the intercooler it will be the same at the 7A-FE kit, but from the intercooler to the throttle body it will be like my kit. That is because the starter is on the back on the 7A-FE. The turbo is going to be a T3 super 60 capable of 300HP. I'm doing the initial install on my car and the tuning. Ill be using the RX7 injectors that we are all familiar with. Ill be providing the Split Second box as an oiption. OK how much you ask? cost is going to be $2000.00 for the tuner kit, which includes turbo, piping, couplers, clamps, oil lines, oil return. The complete kit is 2500.00 which includes a tuned Split Second box and injectors. PM me if you have any questions.













as you can see its really easy to reach under the manifold to change the oil filter

you will notice i put the OEM bumper back on, there was differences in the fog light locations, so i wanted to make sure that the piping will clear the fogs for both bumpers. Im really excited about this kit, for the 5S kits i will also be including the 3S-GTE oil pan and fittings for the return line. ill come up with something sexy looking for the 7A kits also

ill have an install guide so it wont be that hard to install. in fact the difficulty will be about the same as installing an intake or exhaust. The hardest part will be removing the stock header. The turbos will arrive next week, as soon as i get them in, ill slap everything together and get on the dyno. Im looking foward to the results

how reliable? lets put it this way. I have never had any failures, i have over 50 turbo kits out there without a single problem....except those "idiots" that turn the boost up thinking HELL YEAH then BAM! broken pistons cause they went beyond their injectors, or engine internals.

Whoah, now who thought i was going to put all 5 of these on my car....Seriously? no guys and gals, these are for the kits im producing....DUH!

Yes I was joking, It would be like asking if I could run 68 psi on my 3sgte on a 4:1 compression...

...Not that I wouldn't try it... thumbsup.gif

none are 5S kits but i do have the one on erynns car. they are all 1ZZ and 2ZZ kits. These im doing now are getting me into the 6th gen world. but kits are kits, all the manifolds are the same material and quality and never had one break. The only time someone breaks something is because they messed with it. that's why im doing this on my car first. if i break my car, then its my problem. i wont send out something i haven't done myself

after 3 hours of tuning the Split Second box, its starting to come along. the turbo spools really fast and 9psi feels good. the 5S-FE seems to have a wierd point a 4000 RPMs where the A/F changes drastically. can anyone elaborate on this?

Pics coming soon

... I hate you... I was planning on doing a V6 swap later on down the road (either this summer, or the summer after) but seeing on how your kit is only $2500... I think my plans just changed. wink.gif
one question though, for now, I have an automatic trans, will running 8psi destroy it? (I still consider myself "new" to I4's and there auto trans's, since I had a V8 with a 5-speed right before buying my celica) I tried looking for the breaking point of them, both with google and on here, but I could not find a straight answer..

yes it is very similar to what the FIC was seeing. im starting to wonder if the OEM computer has some wierd transition at 4000 RPMs.

as for the reliability of the kit. i will not release a kit without testing it. thats what im doing now. i would never put something out there knowing it will damage someone elses car. if i break something i can fix it and learn from it. so dont be afraid of this kit. its gonna be awesome.

#1-You wont get 300-350 out of this kit, youd need a bigger turbo and much more,as well you have to fully upgrade the 5sfe internally as well to hold that kind of power reliably.
#2-300-350hp in a celica for a DD is WAY to much, i mean i suggest driving any kind of either turbo or swapped celica, i would think 250hp would be more than enough in a DD application
#3-With 300hp your gonna go through tires and gas way to much for it to be any kind of practical DD.

just to add my 2 cents I have had my turbo done since august and i beat the hell out of it on a weekly basis it least 3 days a week. nothing has broken or failed on me smile.gif only complaint is the fuel consumption but that goes along with beating the hell out of it and the premium fuel it requires. *shurgs* its totally worth it to have it turbo its so much fun and spools up fast and has so much power now, I need to up grade my clutch then I will be going to dyno as well to post my results smile.gif

dude once again you have no clue what you are talking about. this turbo will make 330 HP but thats about its limit. yes the internals (pistons) will need to be upgraded. but 350 FWD driver is just fine. its all in how you drive the car. i drove my 7th gen making 550 as a daily for a year. you can turn the boost down for regular driving and then if some ass in a vette or mustang want to be owned, turn it back up. thats the nice thing about electronic boost controllers.

At least im not a "kid" anymore.Jeff what turbo are you including in the kits? I was under the impression it was a ct26. And a stock 26 will max out at around 300.Even if it is a 330hp turbo youll need to upgrade everything else to support it, fpr,standalone,pump, intercooler,cams, not to mention itll put a strain on the tranny. And jeff it IS possible to know something without actaully owning it, contrary to popular belief..

how is 300hp to much for a daily driver? 06 mustang GT comes with 300hp, is that not a good DD? lol yes i kno its a v8 but just because its a turbo 4 banger makin 300 or so hp doesnt make it "WAY" to much. it depends on that right foot of yours and how much gas and how many tires you will go through.

and just like he said u can always turn the boost down and turn it back up when you feel the need too

just to add my 2 cents I have had my turbo done since august and i beat the hell out of it on a weekly basis it least 3 days a week. nothing has broken or failed on me smile.gif only complaint is the fuel consumption but that goes along with beating the hell out of it and the premium fuel it requires. *shurgs* its totally worth it to have it turbo its so much fun and spools up fast and has so much power now, I need to up grade my clutch then I will be going to dyno as well to post my results smile.gif

What kinda mpg do you get?City or highway?Boost psi?

City is about 21-24 highway idk I haven't driven it on a consistent long distance trip to accurately quote that. I do drive it hard though... I'm boosting 8psi

That car was built for 300hp, the suspension,brakes,fuel system, everything. So it will be easy to handle. Yea saying its WAY to much is wrong, but 350whp in a 2700lb fwd car built for 150whp wont be fun.

I think what Suprakid is trying to say, is that this specific kit will not make 350hp reliably because it does not include the internals that you both have mentioned as necessary to make that kind of power as a DD. You also stand by your product 100% I'm sure, but then mention an electronic boost controller. If somebody does add in an electronic boost controller to "own a vette or mustang", then will you still back any warranty your kit may have? Does your kit have any type of warranty at all in case something does go wrong even if they did not add anything to it?

First of all, don't speak for me. I have no problem with Jeff and was asking a simple question regarding the kit he is producing here. It's a question that I would ask any company selling a product people would have to put a large chunk of money into. I was not trying to question Jeff's character or say he's a bad person.

Good question. 2500 is a pretty penny for an un-proven turbo kit. If you plan on selling this to many people, a list of what all is included, maybe legal gaurantee of this warranty you speak of(your own personal word would not be enough for me), and maybe something to cover your own back in case someone wants to sue you.

Im not trying to come off as an ass by saying this, nor do i own a 5sfe much less need your kit. It just interesting that none of the three things i mentioned above have never been brought up. And to be more specific, for others who may want to ask but havent.....

Does your kit include a downpipe?
Instructions?
gauranteed warranty?
Idiot proof fittings and lines?
Can you make a manifold to fit another turbo?
Do you have a compressor map for the turbo you are offering (even if its from the manufactuers website)?
Dyno graphs/maps/plots...anything that would give an idea of the the amount of power a 5sfe can make with your kit?
The type of injectors you are using?
More specifics on the tuning aparatus you will be using? (PnP, user adjustable?)
Will a stock engine be well enough for this kit?
Can the manifold be adapted to be used on 3sfe engines, or is there no problem with that already?

Ionno just a few things that have popped into my head whist lurking in this post. And like i said, not trying to come off as an ass or anything just general questions that i believe others might want to ask, or might not know to ask.

every one of these questions has an answer if you read the post. except for mounting to a 3S-FE. i have no idea since I have never seen a 3S-FE. "Almost" and T3 turbo will fit on this manifold, yes it comes with a downpipe that will bolt to the stock exhaust. The Split Second is fully user programmable.

This kit has been running on Erynns car for almost a year now.

Thanks for your response, and as a matter of fact alot fo my questions were not covered in the past 4 pages of post. Foe example you say that you used rx7 injectors, but with the final product that you will be selling, will you be shipping out rx7 injectors or some other type that will work with the 5sfe fuel rail?

The question about a dyno plot has come up several times, and lacked a true answer.
The tuning device you used, while you mentioned it in an earlier post, still is a mystery, that would require some google searching to find answers. Easy to do, yet why should a consumer do this when as a seller it would make more sense to just provide the info for them?

Warranty. Again, lacked a true answer. You saying you stand by your products is weak. Back it up with some paper and gain some true credibility. Also protect yourself from fraud.

You just now answered the question about the downpipe and the 3sfe engine, (thanks for that btw) but a possibility of install instructions for those not in your area, and PAPER OR ON PRINT INFO about the turbo are just as lacking as my earlier stated questions about dyno plots and warranties.....

Anywho its good to see you want to do something for the 5sfe guys who desire to keep their current engines, and get as much out of them as you can. I would just like to see more "protection" for them and yourself, when it comes to the things that will make their engine blow up after spending 2000-2500 dollars.

^^^ Dont you worry about me putting out a product that might bow up someones engine. I have been turboing cars for over 10 years now and i think i know a thing or 2. the piggy back is a split second PSC1. here is a data sheet on it http://www.splitsec.com/products/datapdfs/R4DS-1.pdf

I have not gone into production yet so i dont have final answers yet. obviously since nobody is ready to drop $$$ i havent really rushed it. when someone is ready to spend the $$$ then ill finish tuning my car, have a solid produce and then put it out there.

everyone is so hyped up about dyno plots. give me a freaking break. its not finished yet. i have said numerout times the tuning isnt done. im back in school full time. i work full time, its not on my priority list right now. and i still need to rebuild my power steering pump. like i said when someone says yes im ready to buy, i will get my ass in gear and finish it.

as for warrenty, everything in this kit is new. my mainfolds have NEVER cracked, im making over 600HP (545 Wheel) in my 7th gen celica with the same parts basically. erynns car has been running for almost a year now i think. my stuff works. If anything breaks, its from operator error. Im not going to cover the moron that jacks up the boost and blows their engine. then come running to me saying i blew it up.

I may not have been on here as long as Dr Tweak or Jim or Pressure, just because i have been in the 7th gen and Supra world, but i know what im doing here. My reputation in the 7th gen world speaks for itself.

So once again, this is not a finished product. I dont have all the answers yet cause i havent discovered all of them yet.

BTW, i am also on newcelica.org. I own a 7gc too but thats another project for later, right now its just a dd.

rolleyes.gif If he's willing to show what work he did and how he did it right from the first post (which speaks for itself) and is happy to answer any questions about it, especially to serious buyers, what is the point of all the BS above what I'm writing? He's not selling the kit on e-bay with some half ass parts like a lot of other people out there do. If you don't trust it, wait for some one else to use it and see what the outcome is. Doesn't really sound like you're trying to help him out. F****** ridiculous criticism there IMO.

once again, there is NO NO NO cutting of the frame. i removed the factory airbox that is under the fender and the pipe is routed under the fuze box. because the starter is on the front side of the tranny and the cruise control is in the way, thats how the GT piping goes. the ST come right up in the fron of the tranny since the starter is on the back of the engine.

Smaay we are not here to criticize your parts, we are here to ask questions as potential buyers, no need to get frustrated. We'd appreciate any info. you can give in order to understand what's included. What you have to offer I'm sure all the 5sfe guys would appreciate.

[/quote]willing to show what work he did and how he did it right from the first post (which speaks for itself) and is happy to answer any questions about it, especially to serious buyers, what is the point of all the BS above what I'm writing? He's not selling the kit on e-bay with some half ass parts like a lot of other people out there do. If you don't trust it, wait for some one else to use it and see what the outcome is. Doesn't really sound like you're trying to help him out. F****** ridiculous criticism there IMO.
[/quote]-al94st

al94st, another reason 3way is asking these questions, is not for so much lack of trust in the man personally, its just he is a hard man to sell to lol, which is very smart in a case like this, I agree. Most of the questions previously asked were more than likely in regards for other 3-5sfe owners who arent very engine savvy, like myself. Plus like he said he doesnt want any one to go down for lack of information like most companies in the economic comunity have done. I stand behind him in this matter, due to the fact if I decide this option I trust it will be a good one. Considering the fact I like so many others only have one engine.

There is no hate or discontent on this topic, rather more of a concern for self and others.

Perhaps, perhaps, but digging for a warranty when most the cars on here are well above 100k..come on. Don't get me wrong, I understand where he's coming from. I'm just saying give the guy a little break...see how these kits hold up first if there's doubt, not start ripping his thread up before he's even finished tuning. He's doing people a favor by building these right?

Not to complain but you dont have an actual list of all the parts the kit comes with, you just keep saying a "complete" kit.
I am interested in this kit very much so but I (& many others) would like to know exactly what we are paying for.

turbo, manifold, pipes, couplers, clamps, oil feed line, oil return, all fittings, downpipe, BOV, and the SS controller. i think thats everything. the only thing it does not come with is injectors. if you want to use the FIC i can provide a MAP for that too

How well would this pair up with reground camshafts? Geoff at Colt Cams suggested a cam profile of 256° .330L to work with either N/A or Turbo. Whats your opinion on this?
