man o man did i have a good day!!!!
i got the turbo in and solved the oil pressure problem. all i can say is WOW. at 50% throttle it is faster than the car was when NA at 100% throttle i had a ton of problems today. the piping kept blowing off at different places and then the gasket i made blew apart(used the wrong gasket material) but its all working now and im boosting at 6psi with no hesitation and a whole lot of noise. im running only a down pipe that i made myself until i can get one made on tuesday. so, yeah, after a year of parts gathering, hours of thought, and days and days of work, ITS DONE(well, the parts i can do that is) BTW, the best part was hearing the BOV, which is really really really loud. i could clearly hear it despite running open exhaust. -------------------- 1994 Celica GT4 WRC Edition

that's exactly what i said. "OHHHH ****" and let off the gas. it seriously scared the crap outta me. i have driven several turbo cars, but never one that wasnt a factory turbo car. the power just hits so much harder in my car. i will get some vids right after i pick up the car from the shop, hopefully right after school tomorrow. as of now i still have the stock exhaust from the cat back to the stock muffler, so it should be quite until i install the DR catback exhaust except for the BOV, it echos off of houses and walls every time it blows off. i'm working on finding places that will dyno the car for a good price. -------------------- 1994 Celica GT4 WRC Edition
