98 Celica st205 Options

[bhsk8er]

Alright guys,

This is my first celica and I am extremely new to turbos and such. But I have a few questions. If i want to get a bov, where would I put it? I've read that people have been putting the HKS SSQV's in the st205's.

And also, Is there any way of converting this engine to OBD II? I have a few applications in mind.

I also would like to know if converting my exhaust downpipe/exhaust to a 3" system would be bad.

I've read mixed forums on all of these matters and would like clear and straight answers if possible.

Thank you, and greets from Okinawa, Japan!

Hello, first going OBD II is stupid, no point doing that get a standlone ecu.

Secondly, the stock BOV goes off the TMIC to the stock airbox by about 1.5" pipe which you can plug you HKS SSQV into easy as, and the other small rubber tube is plugged into the stock one just unplug them both and plug into the HKS simple. You should get a podfilter set up if you do this though as the engine will suck air through the stock BOV unless you seal it up.

Exhuast wise, if you want power from a 3sgte GET A 3" downpipe and a 3" cat back system i recently did this and you have MASSIVE performance gains, i recommend getting a HKS silent power or BLITZ NUR SPEC R both of which should be very cheap is japan if you go on the japanese yahoo auctions

as long as you leave the stock flexi/mid pipe you shouldnt have any boost creep problems

Cheers
