what do you all think of this kit

[Mr.Grim87T]

i saw this online and was considering buying this but would like some feed back from you all before i commit.
http://yhst-64458468724132.stores.yahoo.net/supra-7mgte-single-turbo-charger-kit-real-hp-gai.html

it seems like a nice starter set for a newbie but what do you think

 

[lppro]

looks like a ebay kit...

 

[87mgte]

you might be able to pick up a kit like that, minus the turbo, at driftmotion.com... go check it out and pick out all the same parts you'd get in that ebay kit and see how much you might save.
i dunno, the ebay one seems like a pretty good deal if you're goin for 350-400whp... i'd get it, but like i said... driftmotion.

 

[lppro]

ya the ebay kits are cheep... but you get what you pay for....

It may just be me, but the intercooler doesn't look right. Unless you have a front feed intake. upgrading the stock setup though, the inlet and outlet of the intercooler is on the same side right?

 

[BlackMKIII]

^^^ I was about to say that. 7M intercoolers need to have both inlet and outlet on the same side, unless you have a FFIM like 1JZ and 2JZs.

It will still work....trust me.

It will still work....trust me.

I have a side to side intercooler with my stock intake manifold and it works fantastic.

In that kit the manifold will require a good amount of work, the turbos junk (from what ive heard) and the BOV is something which i would not trust.

 

[ms07s]

Avoid eBay turbos like the plauge..... That Ic will work fine just a little extra IC pipe routing thats all. I would want to know the turbos manufaturer before I would dump 750+ looks like a china turbo....:nono:

 

[LilMissMkIII]

Looks cheap and nasty to me...

No specs and ratings of the parts on the site either.... Not a good sign...

negative. my intercooler proves otherwise

i've never see the bov mounted there... that's crazy. i heard the objective was to get it as close to the throttle body as you could... maybe i'm wrong. that's a cool place to mount it though if you wanna scare everyone around your car:biglaugh:.

LOLLOL, funniest part is it scares the SH#T out of some people. Ill never forget the reactions of a couple middle school girls i passed this summer, they literally ducked and covered while screaming their lungs out LOL:biglaugh:

....I thought that was the purpose of a open atmo bov...to scare the s#!% out of bystanders:icon_evil

 

[suprafanatic]

ya DONT BUY EBAY TURBOS .....F..T...L!! i had one on the celica,,, pulled great, ran great,,, but loved to eat, burn, and spit oil eveywhere..

 

[Nalleywhacker]

i agree cheap and alittle pricey too.

lol i'd pay to see that. when you put it down there does it still get all the pressure it needs to be that loud? i'm gonna have to mount mine somewhere down yonder like that to scare the ricers and hicks at my school.

yes, its extrememly loud. I love it. I've had it almost 5K miles and would not think twice of getting rid of the noise. It makes a big statement to other drivers/racers around. I get compliments all the time, few complaints mainly from people riding with me cause it scares them cause they think the car is gonna blow up due to ignorance on their part. This one girl i know loves it, in her own words "it makes me cream my pants" LOL and of course "great now i have to change my panties"

 

[Mr.Grim87T]

thanks for the input I've decided to take the advice of some of you and go with drift motion spearco style they sell, and a matching pipe kit. my next question would be where do you guys relocate your oil coolers and would you suggest getting a universal kit w/ the sandwich piece between the filter.

 

[mhopemk3]

I have the larger Driftmotion IC and my Oil cooler is pretty much in the stock location.
