This is a Little Embarrasing

C'mon guys there is like no one on here that posts anything about toyota's. So we really need to get some more representation in here.

I also happen to have a Toyota. Not much to say about it...it's a great car. Btw, nothing embarrasses me, which is not always good but that's the way it is.

While we're waiting for somebody to post more Toyota stuff, here's a nice Toyota motor, the F1 V10 they came up with a while back:

yep most are Supra or supra based (SC, IS). So they over shadow my ES300 and my Corolla which are both tastefully modded.

Yeah I just figured we should have all the toyota people talking to each other as well. And I figured almost every toyota would be a supra on here

Now that you mention it, I have two Toyotas. The Supra in my sig pic and then my tastefully moded racing '07 RAV4 LTD, seen here in the background after I ran over that tube frame V8 powered Z car. Most recent RAV4 mod is a powered 3 X 10" subwoofer attached to the back hatch door which I hope will give me additional thrust coming out of tight corners. My kids say it also provides adequate "bump".

Mr. 2jz, you'll probaby have to fight my two boys for it. They're now 15 and 16 y.o. and have been known to ask me "hey dad, when you die can we have your Supra?" Love those boys.

But since you said "...your motor..." here's a recent courtesy pic for this thread (from the 10th Annual CF Benefit Show in Dublin last month):

On the dyno during tuning it made ~615whp at 22 psi on 93 pump with 50/50 meth/H2O spray for charge air cooling. The small'ish GT2860 turbos I chose are for responsiveness rather than high power.

What are your intake tubes called? Looks like an air collector or something. I bet the turbos make some noise with those on it.

Clean ass engine bay though, awesome post!

Those are usually called velocity stacks. I got them from Vibrant who lists them as "aluminum bellmouth velocity stacks". You are absolutely right about the turbo noises being greatly enhanced with those...which is why I didn't want to take them off once I had them on. The comparison I made was that it sounds like an angry A10 Warthog which I mean as a good thing. I have very fine mesh stainless steel screen shaped into sort of a deep cup shape to increase open area and have them clamped where the stacks attach to the turbo inlets by the V-bands. Prior to this I had HKS filters like this pic below, which I still have but the good sounds cloud my better judgement so those haven't been on since the stacks were done.

Thanks. I was at a roadcourse track day with some Ferraris and as sort of a tongue-in-cheek comparison to the highly regarded 599 GTO I made up this little chart:
