the full kit is 2500.00 comes with everything you need. im located in Lancaster CA, just north of LA

any dyno #s yet?

not yet, im back in school and hanvent had any time to work on the car. i havent finished tuning it yet, and i need to rebuild the power steering pump

Kit looks awesome!! Currently working on getting my car fixed right now but once it is i'd totally be interested. I'm also about a 3 hour drive from you (santa barbara county). Once you get everything worked out I might have to take you up on your offer of installation

may i review the list for the complete turbo kit package?

Good question. 2500 is a pretty penny for an un-proven turbo kit. If you plan on selling this to many people, a list of what all is included, maybe legal gaurantee of this warranty you speak of(your own personal word would not be enough for me), and maybe something to cover your own back in case someone wants to sue you.

Im not trying to come off as an ass by saying this, nor do i own a 5sfe much less need your kit. It just interesting that none of the three things i mentioned above have never been brought up. And to be more specific, for others who may want to ask but havent.....

Does your kit include a downpipe?
Instructions?
gauranteed warranty?
Idiot proof fittings and lines?
Can you make a manifold to fit another turbo?
Do you have a compressor map for the turbo you are offering (even if its from the manufactuers website)?
Dyno graphs/maps/plots...anything that would give an idea of the the amount of power a 5sfe can make with your kit?
The type of injectors you are using?
More specifics on the tuning aparatus you will be using? (PnP, user adjustable?)
Will a stock engine be well enough for this kit?
Can the manifold be adapted to be used on 3sfe engines, or is there no problem with that already?

Ionno just a few things that have popped into my head whist lurking in this post. And like i said, not trying to come off as an ass or anything just general questions that i believe others might want to ask, or might not know to ask.

every one of these questions has an answer if you read the post. except for mounting to a 3S-FE. i have no idea since I have never seen a 3S-FE. "Almost" and T3 turbo will fit on this manifold, yes it comes with a downpipe that will bolt to the stock exhaust. The Split Second is fully user programmable.

This kit has been running on Erynns car for almost a year now.

Thanks for your response, and as a matter of fact alot fo my questions were not covered in the past 4 pages of post. Foe example you say that you used rx7 injectors, but with the final product that you will be selling, will you be shipping out rx7 injectors or some other type that will work with the 5sfe fuel rail?

The question about a dyno plot has come up several times, and lacked a true answer.
The tuning device you used, while you mentioned it in an earlier post, still is a mystery, that would require some google searching to find answers. Easy to do, yet why should a consumer do this when as a seller it would make more sense to just provide the info for them?

Warranty. Again, lacked a true answer. You saying you stand by your products is weak. Back it up with some paper and gain some true credibility. Also protect yourself from fraud.

You just now answered the question about the downpipe and the 3sfe engine, (thanks for that btw) but a possibility of install instructions for those not in your area, and PAPER OR ON PRINT INFO about the turbo are just as lacking as my earlier stated questions about dyno plots and warranties.....

Anywho its good to see you want to do something for the 5sfe guys who desire to keep their current engines, and get as much out of them as you can. I would just like to see more "protection" for them and yourself, when it comes to the things that will make their engine blow up after spending 2000-2500 dollars.

^^^ Dont you worry about me putting out a product that might bow up someones engine. I have been turboing cars for over 10 years now and i think i know a thing or 2. the piggy back is a split second PSC1. here is a data sheet on it http://www.splitsec.com/products/datapdfs/R4DS-1.pdf

I have not gone into production yet so i dont have final answers yet. obviously since nobody is ready to drop $$$ i havent really rushed it. when someone is ready to spend the $$$ then ill finish tuning my car, have a solid produce and then put it out there.

everyone is so hyped up about dyno plots. give me a freaking break. its not finished yet. i have said numerout times the tuning isnt done. im back in school full time. i work full time, its not on my priority list right now. and i still need to rebuild my power steering pump. like i said when someone says yes im ready to buy, i will get my ass in gear and finish it.

as for warrenty, everything in this kit is new. my mainfolds have NEVER cracked, im making over 600HP (545 Wheel) in my 7th gen celica with the same parts basically. erynns car has been running for almost a year now i think. my stuff works. If anything breaks, its from operator error. Im not going to cover the moron that jacks up the boost and blows their engine. then come running to me saying i blew it up.

I may not have been on here as long as Dr Tweak or Jim or Pressure, just because i have been in the 7th gen and Supra world, but i know what im doing here. My reputation in the 7th gen world speaks for itself.

So once again, this is not a finished product. I dont have all the answers yet cause i havent discovered all of them yet.

Correct me if i'm wrong is the frame cut right there where the pipe goes right through the fuse box?

Also still interested in the complete list so that i don't have to keep pming you. i want to weigh my options between this option and a 3sgte. thanks again.

BTW, i am also on newcelica.org. I own a 7gc too but thats another project for later, right now its just a dd.

If he's willing to show what work he did and how he did it right from the first post (which speaks for itself) and is happy to answer any questions about it, especially to serious buyers, what is the point of all the BS above what I'm writing? He's not selling the kit on e-bay with some half ass parts like a lot of other people out there do. If you don't trust it, wait for some one else to use it and see what the outcome is. Doesn't really sound like you're trying to help him out. F****** ridiculous criticism there IMO.

Pm sent.

once again, there is NO NO NO cutting of the frame. i removed the factory airbox that is under the fender and the pipe is routed under the fuze box. because the starter is on the front side of the tranny and the cruise control is in the way, thats how the GT piping goes. the ST come right up in the fron of the tranny since the starter is on the back of the engine.

Smaay we are not here to criticize your parts, we are here to ask questions as potential buyers, no need to get frustrated. We'd appreciate any info. you can give in order to understand what's included. What you have to offer I'm sure all the 5sfe guys would appreciate.

im not fustrated, looking back at my post is does look like im snapping back, i dont mean to. my bad anyways. i want to get as many of these kits out as i can, the 6th gen deserves to be boosted

Do you have an eta?

al94st, another reason 3way is asking these questions, is not for so much lack of trust in the man personally, its just he is a hard man to sell to lol, which is very smart in a case like this, I agree. Most of the questions previously asked were more than likely in regards for other 3-5sfe owners who arent very engine savvy, like myself. Plus like he said he doesnt want any one to go down for lack of information like most companies in the economic comunity have done. I stand behind him in this matter, due to the fact if I decide this option I trust it will be a good one. Considering the fact I like so many others only have one engine.

There is no hate or discontent on this topic, rather more of a concern for self and others.

Perhaps, perhaps, but digging for a warranty when most the cars on here are well above 100k..come on. Don't get me wrong, I understand where he's coming from. I'm just saying give the guy a little break...see how these kits hold up first if there's doubt, not start ripping his thread up before he's even finished tuning. He's doing people a favor by building these right?
