Hi
Updates soon.
I am at Kaizen working on my Supra.
All my parts are back and everything looks fantastic.
I am ripping off stock twins right now. Hopefully for the last time... :squint:

I have 2.5" black couplers in stock. :dunno: I guess Joe's not allowed to talk to me anymore.

Car runs. No smoke. Turbos spin fast at idle. No exhaust leak.
Pics later today. I am very tired at the moment.

I feel like I have been doing deadlifts with every single muscle in my body!
I am uploading some pics right now for you guys to see. I will try to borrow a camera with audio later for some video.
I replaced the Greddy Type-S BOV with a Blitz Super Sound gen1 piece. I always liked the sound best out of any BOVs and it matches the Blitz theme as well.
In the next few pics notice the parts I had ceramic coated. The turbine housings, downpipes, and manifolds are all coated in black and look fantastic.
They spinnin!!!!!
More changes to be made soon. Black couplers, gonna do something with the IC pipes to look a little better. The first coupler right off the 2nd turbo has a huge hole in it so alot of power is spilling out from there. Will take care of that soon.
Also, I still have my fuel pump and 540s waiting to go in. Those are on deck.
But so far, everything is better than it was the first time. Rebuilt turbos, freshly coated parts, new oil lines. No smoking this time! No leaks. Feels good.
wohhh boost leak anyone? that coupler is toast.
good work, looks great! im still debating on going single, or steel wheeled stock twins.

lol yes, that coupler is a little worse for the wear huh?
I will replace it soon.The car runs and that is what I was most concerned with at the time.
I did not get to do much boosting last night anyway. It was raining.
Just throw some duct tape on that coupler. So a Suprahero repair!
Looks nice though. Damn, I don't even have my 1JZ yet and I'm daydreaming about it... LOL

It will need some heat wrap where that coupler cracked because it's right above the exhaust housing with no heat shield.
Yeah. Wrap may help. I will see how it goes with just the coupler though. If it tears again, I will try something different. Most of that tear was from the joint where I used it on the stock twins. It was stretched pretty good.
Also, the underhood temps are alot nicer now. Before it was like the sun when I popped the hood after driving. Now it is not nearly as bad.
I guess that ceramic coating is really doing its job well...

good job joe!!
any plans to run some kind of filter system on it? it looks tight but you might be able to get creative and run 2 small blitz filters im thinking a pipe dropping off the back turbo at a couple of 90 degrees and meeting up straight where the hydro fan fluid reserve is....
