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

it is a garret airsearch t3 got it off of a volvo at a pick your part junkyard for $95 including a $15 core charge. it had remanufactured plates on it and hardly any shaft play. it also came with an adjustable wastegate actuator to tell you the truth, it had no lag, but that was when running an open down pipe(and i never really got on it with that setup). now the car hits boost 1/2 way through 1st gear. if i time it right, i can make it hit boost in the 1-2 shift and lose traction. kinda fun the car is silent now except for the BOV and the sound of the turbo. i need to put my catback exhaust on, it should help the turbo spool a little quicker and make some sort of exhaust note. -------------------- 1994 Celica GT4 WRC Edition
