7A-FTE made in Germany Options

[Hafkai]

Hi, after over a year of gathering parts my Celica finally is in the garage and gets her custom header, exhaust and some other stuff.
Yesterday we fitted the big Evo9 intercooler, i had to get the ST205 crash bar because the stock one is to tight, intercooler piping was done too and i'm very happy with it. I will use the stock ST205 air filter box, since there is not much space between the filter box and the engine, the IC piping is a little bit tricky but it looks like we found a good route.









The header will be done in the next days.



Short list of parts i'm using:
- Garrett T25 Turbo from a CA18DET
- Mitsubishi EVO 9 Intercooler
- E-manage Ultimate
- Innovate LC-1 Wideband
- ST202 3S-GE Injectors (372ccm)
- ST205 Fuel Pump
- Bosch Blow-Off from a Audi S3
- Custom Header and 3" Exhaust
- dozens of other small parts

I went to the track yesterday and the engine seems to like the boost , no bigger problems at all, the oil temp was always below 120°C (~250°F) and exhaust gas temp peaked at 930°C (1700°F) @ 6200rpm. The water got a little bit hotter than usual but not too much.
The stock clutch is still in an holds the boost without problems... i'm a little bit astonished about this.

I got a video of the fastest lap.. cam position sucks but i love the engine sound Link
I was able to drop the lap times from 2:30 to 2:21 and this with bad tires...
