ct20b on 2nd gen, whos running this set-up? Options

[95st-celica]

i will be picking up a ct20b for my 2nd gen this weekend, and was curious as to see who else was running the same set-up, as well as what other supporting mods you have, and what kind of numbers you were getting out of it as well.

I think this will really open up and answer a lot of questions about the limits of a basically stock 2nd gen, (for us 2nd gen guys) compared to the stock 3rd gen, with such a simple upgrade as a 20b.

From what i have researched, 290-320WHP should be attainable with simple mods to the 2nd gen.

Myself and lagos are going to see what we can do with each of our set-ups, and post back what we came up with.

I really do think that 300WHP is VERY realistic for the 2nd gen with the ct20b, if not more.

Talk to LAGOS i know after we are done with mine he will be looking for one to purchase....how many miles are on it? is it a steel wheel(off of the WRC) or is it a ceramic wheel? any shaft play?

JIM- i see what you are saying...and eventually i will run into the probelm of needing more fuel, which is why i will be looking for some stock 3rd gen 540's to throw in my car, along with an upgraded fuel rail. I know ATS sells the rails, along with wolfcats, i believe that is their name.

As for the offensive part, not at all, probably just the way it sounds over the computer...lol...like i said before we are just trying to show the best possiable route to get the most out of the 2nd gen with out breaking the bank. Once we have EVERYTHING fine tuned, runing optomial boost, Then i will go from there and upgrade the fuel system. But even still, with larger injectors, fuel rail, and a tune to compensate, you can only run so many pounds on the ct20b, espically with the ceramic wheel. From what i have heard, 18-19psi on the ceramic turbo is about the safest with-out pushing it too far. With the steel wheel you can go a few pounds more and still be somewhat safe. So as long as we have enough fuel to get us to 19psi on the ceramic 20b, there is no point in upgrading the fuel system or injectors, other then the fact of being safe(which is always a good thing dont get me wrong) but not something you need to get to that desired boost level, AGAIN as long as fuel is not an issue. And with the addition of the WI i dont think it will be a problem.

As far as the ecu goes, for what we are working with, i think the stock ecu of the 2nd gen will work just fine.

o0 and art, This thread isnt about making your car faster, its about making MY CAR FASTER!! your just lucky you have all of the supporing mods aready in the whip
