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 ![]() |

OOBE, i've only taken 1 degree per psi of boost. I'm running at 9 psi. Well, my mechanic/tuner refuses to have an engine blow because of detonation. He's too proud and people here talk smack with a quickness if you screw up. He doesn't trust a piggyback, so he went really rich and safe on my tune since I'm on stock internals. The timing was retarded to like last year, LOL, and I still made good power. ![]() ![]() That is crazy...I had no idea. This is why I'm researching a few years ahead of time...thanks man! Now, would this also be necessary on a 3S-GTE swap? On ANY engine. And yeah, tuning is expensive. Here in the island the cheapest I've seen is $300, which is what my tuner charges. He charges less to me because I helped him with something when we met, so now he gives me good prices. -------------------- |
