Man I remember when I wanted to go FFI and it was a distant dream to do it, but I had no funds available. In the last few years I have come a long ways due to people on this site like DRjonze, Bishop, Joethaman(HPF), Trent, Chevyeater, Supralover2000, Larry Anderson(The Teacher), Pornaddict, DBsupra, Intrex, Kruso,
Zazzn, Suprang, Enslaved, Melloyellow, Upgradedsupra, Ron Ramirez, and many more but I am tired so my hats off to you guys, and evryone else. The help and inspiration has ben great. I hoped to have enrichened all of your lives as these people have mine, and my supra. Inspite of the many assholes I encounter here the love is better than the hate. So here is what my old set up was 1 year ago. My reccomendation is get what will work try to do it once, and get what you can sell to upgrade as I have done. Spend wisely don't be cheap, wait if it cost a little more, and get what you want. Also sell all your spare parts to get money for upgrades and be honest as hell to have a good rep and beableto sell future parts to those that need them. I don't post much here anymore since system has crashed but I will try to do better!

did you do 3" ic piping from the turbo or just ic to tb?

i'm not sure if i should go 2 1/2 or 3" from the turbo for mine, the turbo comp housing has quite a small outlet tho.. probly 2" or something

Go 2.5 inch to the IC from the turbo. I went 3" into the throttlebody


Radiator pipe was 7 dollars. I opted to use 1.5" J drain if you remember my post on it. You can go 1.25 inch and use silicone hose inf ya like. Personally I wanted to have a wide flow like the stock hose was. Going the smaller tube will look a bit better but flow lessin my opinion. The ends of the 1.5" pipe is a tad bit bigger than the stock inlets, hince the dissimilar size. But looking for looks and fucntion so i opted for 1.5" pipe and used the stock hose.
