That would be great man. Last night My dad basically told me there was no chance he'd help me buy a GTI, so I'm back to making the ST auto a little faster . Jon=looked at turbos on e-bay all night, lol |

Sory, they don't teach reading down here.
And the T-3 doesn't lag much eh? Also, if you don't mind my asking, where did you get it, and what 'Kind' is it? You see, you turboing with an automatic tranny has inspired me. Jon |

it is a garret airsearch t3 got it off of a volvo at a pick your part junkyard for $95 including a $15 core charge. it had remanufactured plates on it and hardly any shaft play. it also came with an adjustable wastegate actuator to tell you the truth, it had no lag, but that was when running an open down pipe(and i never really got on it with that setup). now the car hits boost 1/2 way through 1st gear. if i time it right, i can make it hit boost in the 1-2 shift and lose traction. kinda fun the car is silent now except for the BOV and the sound of the turbo. i need to put my catback exhaust on, it should help the turbo spool a little quicker and make some sort of exhaust note. -------------------- 1994 Celica GT4 WRC Edition

Wow, that's really great. And everything else as far as your engine itself, (head and pistons, etc) is stock right?
How's your gas mileage? Are you planning to do anything else to the motor? Jon |

not sure about my mpg, but from about the 50-60 miles i have driven with the turbo on, im pretty sure i can still get good mpg when i want to. everything is stock instide the engine. i plan on finishing the setup with a fmic and good IC piping and a new fuel pump. other than that i will leave the car as it is and save up for better things -------------------- 1994 Celica GT4 WRC Edition

i might, but my car, as it is, is running really really rich, running only a down pipe, black smoke/soot(like with older diesel big rigs) would come out the exhaust during shifts i have to actually drive the car around for a while before i decide on what i need/want next -------------------- 1994 Celica GT4 WRC Edition

i understand that, but thats not what i meant. i have to actually do more that drive to and from the shop/school i figure that by time a need to fill up the tank, i will know exactly what needs to be done. btw, nothing is broken(knock on wood) i have ordered a turbo rebuild kit and im gonna get heat wrap for the down pipe and exhaust housing. -------------------- 1994 Celica GT4 WRC Edition

i know some people wanted to know my MPG, today i filled up the tank and got 22mpg
that is while running extremely rich and constantly hitting boost and letting off to test things out. im sure that once i work all the quirks out i will get a couple mpg better milage. -------------------- 1994 Celica GT4 WRC Edition
