That would be a 3s-gte and no it isn't blown. It's running just fine and dandy. The middle strut is the strut that does not contact the firewall, and it's BRIGHT red. You cant miss it. It's also hand made. In person it looks perfect too!! Blown = turbo'd I thought all strut bars were connected at three points. NVM, Forced Induction...stupid bastard. |

Blown = SC'd or the engine is wasted - take your pick. If you'd like to find out what's what on there I'd be happy to answer any questions you have. Follow the hot pipe up over the exhaust header and you will see the Turbo. Not all STB's are connected at three points. Also not all 3 points are stiff enough side to side [Stock for example]. I don't like to have to take the STB off just to change the spark plugs and other maintenance so for my last 4 Celicas I've been making an extra bar that goes from strut to strut to take up the slack. Use quality material and a good tight fit and it'll be better than most things on the market.

MUHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! DYNO DAY - 254lbs/tQ!!!!!!!!! @14PSI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! awesome man, post the chart!! what were the hp #'s ect?!?! It was only 228WHP that run I don't even have a print out for the highest 2 runs but they and others plus help finding the leak on the dyno we're all free - so I'm not complaining. The official number will have to be 217WHP/244tQ - that's what I have documented. I have charts I promise I'll post monday morning when I get to my scanners. Sorry but I'm in the sticks right now and I'm lucky to be on the inernet LOL. My phone doesn't even work out here.

you should have them give you a copy of the actual run file. that way you can print more and compare it to other runs you might do in the future.

NICE WORK! when you get the image up, be sure to add to the dyno registry. -------------------- Former Team 5SFTE pro member ;)

two of the three printed runs:
Remember that these are @ 14PSI on Mustang Dyno - nearly sea level. I did have a couple better runs after we let her cool and actually setup the fans but these numbers are documented so they will be the official ones [for now]. Analysis from the pros would be well appreciated. -------------------- ENGINE: '93 RC 3S-GTE/WRC CT-20b [18-20PSI] PERF: TRD/HKS/ARP/NGK/MSD/ACT/Blitz/STRI/APEX'i/TwosRus/GReddy/Magnaflo/KOYO SUSP: Tein/Bilstein/SusTech/ INT: SS-III SEATS/Toyota Hyper Sports EXT: WRC/TRD/404 Its a safety feature so that people like you don't end up killing themselves or everyone around them.

your AFR's look great.
i would think you would be making more power with AFR's being that good for a 3sgte. you've got a slight restriction with the cat-back being a smaller diameter piping i think. granted that's not going to make crap tons of hp but it would do something & help with flow. just curious - what diameter is your IC piping? do you have your BOV vented to the atmosphere or recirc'd? do you have adjustable cam gears? the numbers are decent for being a stock CT26 -------------------- '87 AW11 MR2 "Super R2" 4AG-ZE swapped Stage 1 Complete
