LOL, I almost just set it on there so I could say "LOOK!", but it needs to be re-polished so I went without it.

Its a Brazilian knockoff (Master Power) of a Turbonetics T-58 with a .63 p trim turbine. Bench dynos at 465hp at 22 lbs, but I dont plan to run that much most of the time.

it's taken me almost all my spare time over the past week to read this whole thread. i know what it's like to go through the whole engine bay like that, but i haven't yet experienced the trouble you've gone through (not in a supra, but still...) the engine's looking really nice and i'm crossing my fingers for you. i can't wait to see this thing running so i can hear about your "fun" mods.

wow, cool! Im impressed someone took the time to read this archive. Im getting real close now to putting the motor back in the car. I need to put my transmission back together, and also finish up cleaning the engine bay. Then I should be able to get the motor resting back in its rightful place.

Im getting close.

*edit* i'm back! i love the weezl wing! if i end up with a targa, i'll definitely have to hit somebody up for one.

Very awesome Pete, it's almost there. I hope you still have the A/C compressor in the car!

I do. It was a working system (albiet not all that cold) so instead of opening the system to the atmosphere and risking contaminating it or otherwise having to refill it all over again I left it connected.

I expect to have the trans all buttoned up and bolted to the motor today.
