Firstly yheres no point adding a shed loads of power without having the car ready for it. i was like you i bought a EP82 gt turbo and wanted to crank the power straight up but was told by loads of poeple to do things differently.

so my advice mate is to get the cooling and intake improved. you can do this by a Front mount intercooler, removing the very restrictive EFI pipe and relocating the filter to the front of the car. and even bonnet raisers will help too

Then get the ignition sorted i.e uprated leads and better plugs

id also get the gasses expelling properly so bigger better exhaust eg uprated manifold, decat pipe etc

finially id get the fuelling sorted eg RRFPR, FCD and maybe an aftermarket ecu or piggy back followed by a rolling road session to set it up

this although wont make much power difference will do your car a load of good and get it ready to take the 200bhp power your aiming for without blowing the engine to the northsea lol

then you can mod it to increase power. so hybrid turbo, up the boost etc etc

Hope this helps mate

just a thought. you said it looks like its had a front mount intercooler on it before? so im guessing now it hasnt? just wondering if a standard intercoolers been put back on has it been put back on properly? cause if not the boost will be leaking and if youve got that the car will just act like theres no turbo there and turn into a 1.3 n/a basically so id check that 1st matey

^^^^ wat wiv tm developments :S

agreed i waited 8 weeks for 100 quids worth of stuff and it never came. took a paypal dispute up and got a refund. do it sooner than later mate ul never get your stuff if not. use tm developments. next day delivery most of the time

Looks amazing!!

I was reading on PH the otherday about a 2500hp car, is this it??

2500hp??? fukinhell must do backflips when you nail it lol

n my god dats an evil lookin car

anyone??

Right guys

the engines in my EP82 GT turbo and its running except its not ticking ova at all and misfiring

Its got new spark plugs in it and the coil packs ok but its running very rich and the engine management lights on

Any ideas??? lamda sensors are in etc etc cant work it out

Help needed

Plus does anyone have any good tips on how to bleed the water system as someone with experience in MR2's has said toyotas are a git to get water to circulate and he suspects the waters not flowing through the throttle body very well and it needs bleeding

Again any tips would be very appreciated

Cheers lads

Good site had a quick look now

Hope it goes well for you

Oh this thread includes all Starbo's by the way i know i might be in the wrong room but oh well lol

Right guys just for the know...

i want to know what BHP your running at and how you got there so spec lists would be good

Im currently running at fook all cause i bought a dodgy starbo and the engines blown but before i think i was running at the 140bhp mark but thats going to soar up soon

All i have on is: Blitz SUS induction kit

Blitz Super BOV

Full Japspeed System (Manifold.De-Cat and 3 Inch Middle section with 4 1/2 inch Pipe)

HKS Turno timer

Soooooooo........ whats everyone else running at???

i know that lol

i meant while im taking things awt the engine bay lol

and thanks il leave the standard one then haha

oh yer sorry i got an EP82 GT Turbo

and i meant exhaust but thought id do something to the inlet manifold while im down there lol

i know there different engines and this is an example but just seeing if something like a celica inlet would fit

again thats a made up example i know

Hi, I've got my full system through finially haha

Thought while i drop everything off to put my new one in i mayswell do something to the Inlet manifold

So....

could anyone tell me If its better to get a uprated one, where i can get one and whats the best

Or if its better to do something else to improve it

Help is appreciated
