the 1/4 doesnt have patience for a ST.... so we make them ST-T's so atleast we'll sound good going slow.
didn't you swap in a 4AFE?

1991 MR2 - T-tops - Crimson Red - Gen3 3SGTE - Lots of moneyI'm not really an asshole, but I play one on the internet.**** Photobucket
actually, i did. but, yet again they're near identical engines so saying 4afte'er isnt quite as the in crowd tongue.gif
on a follow up on the 4afe swap, i've had a run with another friend of mine who owns a 97 celica st, and im quite impressed on how much quicker the 4afe is to the 7afe

and if u were wondering its japanese spec 4afe, which is rated @ 115 hp @6000 rpm (which is identical to the US spec 7afe), i have yet to find the torque numbers for the 4afe japanese spec, but in all the places i've read about the make of 4afe its naturally a much torquier engine due to its narrow valve angle.

side note : engine miles - 39,428. she's a youngin' smile.gif

Awesome. If you're coming over to the PNW side of the mountain (Coming over via Hwy 410) you should give me a call.

yeah! go ahead and pm me the number, ill get in contact with you then.
im still researching alot on what i should get but so far the parts lists is getting more steady! im all over the rolla' forums on parts list because they have the 4afe in their cars as well.

the 1/4 doesnt have patience for a ST.... so we make them ST-T's so atleast we'll sound good going slow.
so i came down to boost control. only two routes to go, manual or electronic. feel free to post what route i should go.
going in tomorrow to talk to brian from autometrics, the local dyno/tune shop. i just swung by there today to check things out! the owner had a Porsche 911 Turbo running @ 512hp. jealous much? aye!

i did some research on the Garrett Airesearch T3 Turbo, came out of a lotus espirit - runs to ~23 psi just fine which is well within my goals of 200 hp.
with a 40 trim .42 a/r compressor wheel and standard T3 trim .48 a/r turbine wheel.

i have the injectors and a 12:1 FMU if you want just PM me or something

-Brian
but no one thinks this 200 hp is too high of a goal? cuz i have nearly an identical build to a corolla with a us spec 4afe that made 214hp on 14psi and ran strong for about 2 years on that same boost.
i wont be boosting nearly close to that to daily, probably 7psi.
14psi for track days.

the 1/4 doesnt have patience for a ST.... so we make them ST-T's so atleast we'll sound good going slow.
i was going to try for 220hp on mine before life smacked me upside the head and made me realize that i didnt have the time for it.

-Brian
Question: would the Walbro 255lph pump for a SC400 (part number# GSS 342) be a direct fit, and is 107$ a fair price for this? (after shipping)

i read the stickie on the right one, i was just double checking tongue.gif

also, should i get an FPR?

pictures of my new goodies will come later on today ::

and nevermind, finally i just decided to dive deep into some lancer forums to find my FPR question
which is no, the FMU will do it.

what kinda a/f gauge is that??..looks kinda funky. also any plans for thouse headers after the turbos on?? *hint hint*
hmmm I wonder if the headers would fit the 20V...

wink.gif

im not sure what brand the A/F gauge is - i bought it off the same guy who i bought the turbo off of. its a single wire o2 sensor A/F gauge. its basically a light show tongue.gif
as for the header, im not sure. as for fitment on the 20v, the only difference between the 4age 20v and the 4afe 16v is the head. not like ur only 2 hours away to check if u wanted!

bump for small update

the 1/4 doesnt have patience for a ST.... so we make them ST-T's so atleast we'll sound good going slow.

the 1/4 doesnt have patience for a ST.... so we make them ST-T's so atleast we'll sound good going slow.
cool, thks tongue.gif
what if the kit im looking at is a -4an feed ?
another question, how long should the feed/return lines be... i got options : Return - 18" - 24" // Feed - 36" - 48"

im running a -4an line with an oil restrictor just before the turbo.

Visit My Automotive & Tech Blog.
still wondering about the length of the oil lines.
and what spark plugs should i run ?

update with prices.

the 1/4 doesnt have patience for a ST.... so we make them ST-T's so atleast we'll sound good going slow.
bump for more updates.
ordered a new exhaust manifold gasket
and a porsche 911 turbo emblem tongue.gif lol

bump - i hate bumping so much but i got alot of updates
ordered 6gc.net stickers from lew (represent! tongue.gif)
and also ordered the 10k HID Kit 9006 from cupable.

the 1/4 doesnt have patience for a ST.... so we make them ST-T's so atleast we'll sound good going slow.
i've had thought of going with a full autometer gauges instead of what i was going with.... im looking at the prices of Phantom Autometer with a full range sweep for boost. and electrical gauges for wideband o2 sensor and EGT gauge 0-1600F. i dont really know the prices at this time - i can bet their spendy tongue.gif

also,
i went down the Les Schwab and got a price quote on brand new toyo proxy r1's (i think thats the name) really sticky tires wink.gif for my 17" rims. ~$500 dollars for all 4.

maybe for next summer when i saved up money i would have gotten 2 semi slicks for the front.
