Slightly old news if you follow the forums in the UK.
Some background. My girl and I have 2 Celicas. Both 6th generation. Hers is seriously lowered, running 17" wheels, significant ice, full Veilside kit, full respray in toyota green, custom interior and a 50 shot of nitrous. It is the sensible car of the pair. Hers is an ST, which is 7A-FE powered. Not the most powerful engine in the world. Hence the N20. Unfortunately, if your piston rings aren't quite 100%, and a BMW M3 tries it on, and you're slightly unhinged, you reach for the little red switch. And this happens. ![]() ![]() Oh dear. Cost me a new engine. -------------------- JDM ST205
Blitz Spec NUR Exhaust, somewhere over $1000 Needing another one 18000 miles later, bloody annoying. |

I believe that nik got 170 hp boosting 9 psi or so so if you took a 110 hp celica at the crank not the wheels then put 50-75 shot using the venom 2000 system because it is a really nice and safe set up you would get around that much. I dont have dyno numbers to prove what the exact hp would be on nitrous, but adding the shot of nitrous to the hp can get you and idea which would be somewhere around the same as the 8-10 psi of boost.
