looks good.
like the top mount turbo setup, curious as to why you mounted it with the compressor on the passanger side?

ThoughI would imagine for FMIC it may be a little less piping.

thats exactly why it was mounted on the compressor side. just made the piping layout easier and more accessible.

I guess this explains why you're getting boost creep at 5 psi.
looks good man keep it up!! update with dyno sheets please!!

I guess this explains why you're getting boost creep at 5 psi.

but it creeps all the way to 12psi

1994 Toyota Celica ST Turbo1991 Toyota MR2MySpace
Thats what happens on internal waste gates with free flowing exhausts.

15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned
so i either need to Bore out the whole in the wastegate more, or buy a lower spring if im not mistaken

1994 Toyota Celica ST Turbo1991 Toyota MR2MySpace
no, tune it for 12psi. 5 pounds gets old quick.

15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned
i was thinkin about that, but i wasnt sure what the situation would be. if it woul still creep higher and higher.

1994 Toyota Celica ST Turbo1991 Toyota MR2MySpace
I have the same boost creep problem. I have an internally wastegated turbo with an 11psi spring (it's the smallest I could find for my turbo) and it creeps to about 15psi. I'm sure it'll creep higher than that but my MAP sensor won't let it. I plan on getting a Tial external wastegate with a 7 or 8psi spring and turn it up to 10psi. Hopefully that will help the creep issue, if not I'll be in the market for a new turbo with a bigger exhaust housing.

yea i actually just took apart my buddys old t3/t4 turbo that has the same exhaust housing as mine. im gonna take a dremel to the hole for the wastegate and open it up some more. *according to my tuner, that will help with the boost creep* but im orderin my MBC in a few. so ill get that and turn down the boost for now.

1994 Toyota Celica ST Turbo1991 Toyota MR2MySpace
boost controller ordered. also got new exhaust side for my turbo. im going to bore out the wastegate hole more

1994 Toyota Celica ST Turbo1991 Toyota MR2MySpace
oil restrictor ordered and boost controller should be here today. exhaust housing is being bored out for more flow. but now, i just keep what lagos said in mind. about tuning it on 12psi. sounds like what i wanna do.. but im afraid to do it right now on stock internals.

1994 Toyota Celica ST Turbo1991 Toyota MR2MySpace
I'm not sure about the mileage or condition of your motor, but stock 7A internals are just fine at 12psi.

"by the way that comment is pertaining to everything but the blue paint in the engine bay, so ugly. retard. lol"


oh thats pretty funny ricky. ill see you tonight.

funny quote i read recently

my analysis of you allen is that your inner Id, ego and super ego must be in a complex fight for conscious superiority forcing your libido to be fixated unconsciously on desires of the phallus. As a defense mechanism, you're sucked into repression due to childhood sexual abuse. In order to resolve your inner conflict you must first confront your deep rooted fear of intimacy stemming from an Oedipus type affection for your mother.

goodnight 6gc

-Rick
hahaha get your ass over here!

1994 Toyota Celica ST Turbo1991 Toyota MR2MySpace
ok. boost is under control. im runnin strong on 8psi right not. needs to be re-tuned now.


i do have a question for some of you, and i might even open another thread just for it.

what are some of yalls opinion on a "two-step"??

1994 Toyota Celica ST Turbo1991 Toyota MR2MySpace
Do it. Its awesome and great for launching. Nothing beats launching off the line with boost built up already. but I hear it will kill your turbo. I plan on doing two step with the emanage ultimate.

so the emange is the best program to get for it? all i have for my motor is the Neo, and i know i need more to be able to set up the two step. im hearin i should get he msd ignition.
