6G Celicas Forums

you're going to have to do a ton of research. I already posted one link. here's another with some useful info and to give a better idea of what you'd be getting yourself into. http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showto...p;hl=7afe+turbo

yea i will i printed 30 pages from the thread thx a lot for the info!!!

I would give you a list but its entirely to long and truley you need to Learn this stuff on your own a do a little bit of research so you will know what part does what.
Once you compile a list oft things you need on your own.
I will be more than happy to add things that you are missing.
And Expect to see around 60 to 70 hp gains depending on your parts you buy and
if your gonna run a safe boot level.

ok so a turbo is continualy working right?I cant turn it off or on or change the power?ALso i will start a list tonight i guess and start looking.

o thx thats a lot of help!!

hahah, this is a fun post! NOT. someone has ALOT to learn before they do anything with turboing the 7afe.. but no, you cant just turn a turbo off, but yes you can adjust the power up or down with a boost controller. on the 7afe you have to be very carful with the amount of boost you run, and the amount of fuel mixture with it, other wise BOOM.

Whee ask nate about his old 7afe..Haha

Fun times Fun times..You owe me a 90* coupler

haha, ya im trying to help him out by talking to him on aol

Any more ideas,or suggestions.

LOLS turbo off hahahaha thats great!

but look in the stickies all the information on turboing a 7afe is in there

I am in the same boat you are. Be sure you know how much power you want first. In my Celica I would be happy with 180 hp and an ECU remap. I have pushed my Celica literally to its limits, I blew the last motor by driving it too hard, I've thrown it around corners doing 45 or 50 mph. Just find out how much your Celica can actually do before you go modifying it. Think also, You throw a large amount of horsepower into a super-light car like the Celi, it won't be easy to control. NOS = not a good idea. If you MUST use nos, only use a 50 shot, to save from immense damage. Good luck down the road. But yeah, the forums are a great place to get info, I've learned tons just from them

Yes nos is out of the picture for sure.ANd yea i ahve driven the celica pretty hard,the fasted ive gone in my celica was 95 awhile back:D.And yea i have learn more stuff on this website than anyother!

is that fast in a ST?

lol i guess i think max is about 130 in a ST

try between 115-120. Then you hit the cutoff.

yea i knew it was around there.i Guess gt is 130-150

gear ratios are really short. I believe you'd be redlining 5th gear at 128 mph. of course, you could take it a bit past redline to reach like 135 or so...

OK thought i would restart this

Take it easy and do it one at a time. Having a car for a hobby requires patience and a lot of money. Unless you have "a lot of money" then you rid yourself of patience and do it all at once. Regardless, concentrate on one part of the car at a time, whether it be looks, performance etc.
