No biggie, imma just weld up what I need cool! now for my next question, with all the power going to the wheels, whats the percentage of rear to front? ive always wondered that about the AWD celica line. can you manipulate how much power goes to which wheels? (i imagine so with the engine management youre using?) im not sure to be honest. no control over power bias with the power FC. -------------------- Former Team 5SFTE pro member ;)

Can't control power bias with an EMS. Thats differential/transmission controlled, no?

on cars equip'ed with electronically controledd center diff, some EMS have that as an external add-on like a boost controller, but the ST205 doesn't have that, is a mechanical AWD, is a basic, brute and rustic system that uses no gadgets to deliver power to the wheels, this is the beauty and the downfall of the ST205.

LMMFAO!!
If ya think those were good, wait till I start posting the pics of actually assembling it! I am so psyched to build this motor, its gonna be a hell of an experience! Lots of custom, one off parts built with a specific goal in mind, all made to work in concert, and make its power quite efficiently. If my motor building skills are up to the task, this setup should make right about 500awhp, at about 19-20psi, on pump fuel, probably with a basic water injection kit. I am currently also working on welding up a custom oil cooler bolt for the 3rd gen oil cooler, the stock 3rd gen bolt is just a tad short. I cut a section of the 5s oil cooler bolt out, cut the 3rd gen bolt just above the threads, and will be welding in the section I cut out of the 5s one, and then having it re machined. Just for reference for guys who may use this thread later, the 4th gen oil cooler and bolt are a bolt on deal, I just want to try it this way before hunting down and buying the 4th gen cooler and bolt. Pics of that hopefully this weekend, with some assembly pics!

This morning, I got up early, so I decided to assemble the pistons and rods, and get some pics.
Time for some ENGINE PORN!!!   Wiseco Pistons, Eagle Rods, with ARP rod bolts.  Rod Bolts (ARP 2000's, made for Eagle) (Don't pay attention to the old bearings, I just left them in place for now, all new Acl bearings are being installed.)  Wiseco Pistons  Coated Piston Skirt  Wrist Pin C-Clip Installed  Ready to install  Now I just have to check the end gap on the Piston Rings, and start putting it all together!
