No part number sorry. I just measured it up with the OEM stick. It does need a lil love as I stated.

Duane, looking pretty sweet there!

I think Allan was talking about this:
Custom%20dipstick.JPG


That's the stock oil cooler bypass adapter, correct? If I'm not mistaken it cools the oil then dumps it back into the sump so basically is a controlled leak and steals pressure from the whole system. Is yours modified in some way? The other possibility is that I might be misunderstanding how the stock circuit works.

Too legit to quit!!

Too bad Duane is already starting to think that bad-ass turbo isn't that big next to the engine, lol planning an upgrade before the part has even been used :biglaugh:

Yeah yeah.. Jake

So I have to start off by saying this weekend's major work could not have been done without our entertainer Tom Breeze. :) He drove all over the washington state to find a EGT bung to weld on the header. That is what would have set us back a week so thank Tom! & Son. Also he picked me up a bung which we later found out that Ron had one already LOL.

So we pretty much bolted the header on and mounted the turbo. While Ron was making the dump tube (external wastegate vented:biglaugh: ) I made the oil drain hose which was a pita. The header is like a bunch of worms crawling all over each other I LOVE IT! :naughty: It is figured out and worked out great! Again it may not look like we did a LOT but we actually did. Ron also fabbed up the intake side of the intercooler and is now completed along with the turbo to intercooler piping. Just need to pick up some 3.5 "cuplers (did that today) and some misc small things.

A few pics

Here is a front shot of the Extreme Turbo Systems intercooler.

Next is a pic from up top of the header.

Thses are the clamps I use and some SS screws for mounting some of the underside wiring.

Ron had to fix his hand so he tried to weld it LOL

IM003299.JPG


Master at work on the turbo to intercooler piping. I will polish that later but I am wanting to get it going so will do that over time.

A side shot to show how high the turbo sits

This is what I do at work and I am sure most of you do too LOL :icon_razz

100 percent for my Supra LOL.jpg


We have left as I can think of is


Make a flange and then DP.
Wire up NOS noids and such..
Wire up pass side area
Vaccum lines to be connected
many lil misc things that I have not thought of I am sure.

Somehow I believe IJ is looking at the I/C saying "finally" I get my pic....lol

How many Supras do you have Duane?, I counted 3 at least!

I sold my RHD 1J to my bro. (not in pic) The red car in the background is a mock up car (Ron's) and the grey one is a customer > He has been waiting for my car to be finished so we can start working on his. Then we have Ron's.

Duane

PS: 1 Supra is enough for me as I would want them all to be fast so I drive a normal car also.
