    Boss turbo

    get a metal pipe either off ebay or have one made. then you can reuse it if you go to another turbo later on. as for the bolts not sure of the size off the top of my head. good luck

    lucas 550 injectors

    at a min i would get them flowed and cleaned before you even thought about putting them in a car or selling them. you could probably easily sell them and use the money for some mk3 specific injectors if need be.

    How much should i ask for my car?

    pics will tell if its a 1k car or a 6k car. dyno sheets and any problems would help, history on the car is important too

    CT26 specific turbo blanket?

    a regular turbo blanket is "adjustable" to fit over alot of turbos, i haven't seen one that was specific to any 1 turbo as of yet. the one i have (boost logic) fit over my ct, sp61gt and now keeps my jt61gt warm :)

    How often do you wax your vehicles?

    The IS gets washed once a week and waxed once a month (religiously on tuesdays). The Supra sits in the garage and gets buffed once every 2 weeks or so, washed once a month, waxed every other. The paint on the Sup needs to be redone and it doesn't move alot so it doesn't collect as much dirt as...

    Recommend a Boost Controller

    Shims would be your best bet for that boost pressure. You could get a cheap MBC and it would do the trick. My personal preference is HKS EVC 1.

    my 3rd and 4th turbo swap. Kept getting delayed over and over due to it being a 1 off and when i put it on finially realized i was missing some parts! got said parts and fired up car and it smokes right away. i think its just burning the oil in the dp off from previous blown turbos and take...

    Question about a plugged up Line

    good call as thats what i was thinking it was too. that might be part of the problem with your leaking oil. that hose is meant to vent the valve covers into the accordion hose. with it plugged up like that you run the risk of too much pressure and pushing out seals. get it vented to the...

    Car buying problems

    how i feel about my IS300 Sportcross too. I get in and I drive, fast, slow, whatever and it runs like a Swiss watch. to the OP, try and find a Legacy GT. Higher quality than the WRX. Also get your own outside financing BEFORE you go to a dealer. Makes things alot easier. Worse comes to...

    Boost controlers..>?

    same one i have and its dead reliable. No boost creep or spikes, just exactly the boost i want, when i want it. the main question for the OP is do you mind shelling out ~$200 for an EBC or go the cheaper route with an MBC? Also what are your current mods as we all my be putting the cart...

    Zex spark plugs.. Anyone use them?

    just grab some NGK coppers and be done with it. the only reason the zex might be recommended is they are a different tempature range to help work with the nitrous. agreed that multiprong = ftl

    Luxury Sedan Survey

    theres a little more than performance and price which seemed where you wanted to twist things. luxury sedans have a prestige behind them too, resale value is not an accurate barometer as if you look at the top of the line MB, Lexus, BMW cars they tend to have the highest drop in resale value...
