TROLL's Supra: RPS Carbon Twin Disc clutch installed, retuning fuel now

[PhillySVT]

your buddys engine bay is SICK! Can't wait to see how your's turns out.

[D Money]

that **** is serious! What size inlets are both of them?

and troll, ask your friend where he got that filter and 4" made.

[TROLL]

The 67mm on the left has a 4" inlet and a 3" outlet on the compressor side . Turbine housing is a .82 A/R T4 with a 3" v-band outlet...
The 61mm on the right has a 3" inlet and a 2" outlet on the compressor side. Turbine housing is a .70 A/R T4 divided with a 3" v-band outlet.

Intake pipe is prebent mandrel at XPSI... I know I'll be looking for a 4" with a 45 degree bend, not sure what you'll need.
And I'll ask about the filter... I've been talking to him a lot about his paint work since it came out so good. Wish I could just have him come up and bang this out! My life this week is pretty much all sanding. It sucks but I'll do what it takes to make this happen without compromise...

[D Money]

ok ok i was going to say, I hope that one on the left wasn't a 4" because that would make your new turbo a ****ing monster, as if it wasnt already. lol

ask him about the filter for me, please. And hes the one who got the pipe from xpsi? i wonder if they have it on their site...

[D Money]

awww mauv found her for only 36 bones.

[TROLL]

go pick up 2 please... and i'm also going to need the following:

T4 gasket, undivided
Five 4" black silicone couplers
4-bolt to v-band EWG adapter flange with a 4-bolt gasket

You can call it my bday present and I won't be mad at you any more for missing it!

[D Money]

haha dude we need to go there for real.

I need a t3 undivided gasket, up pipe gaskets, GT housing gasket, and two 4" black couplers as well.

[TROLL]

what do you need a t3 undivided gasket for? and the gt housing gasket you need is a t4 gasket

[D Money]

i thought it was t3 for 35r lol idk.

which one is the square gasket and which is the round gasket.

[TROLL]

T4 will be for uppipe to turbine housing. oh... the exhaust outlet of your new turbo... I dont know its a 3" 4 bolt turbine outlet, haha... xpsi will probably know what you're talking about and have it in stock

[D Money]

ok so the square one with 4 bolts is the t4 gasket and the turbine outlet is 3" with 4 bolts and that connects to the downpipe.

[hockyplyer18]

psh you wish your car would look like that!

[TROLL]

you dont think i can get there?
wont have all the details done right off the bat but i think i can... it sure is a pretty bay.

[TROLL]

Ok painting the bay was a mistake. Its been a big headache and pain in the ass and has taken a lot longer to get done than originally planned. Still isnt painted but hopefully it will be soon, by a shop, in their booth. I wish I didn't get into this at all but since I did I'll be damned if I don't at least have something to show for it.

But why I'm really here is to talk about how I just got my Greddy exhaust manifold in, and its awesome. I was afraid the Turbo wouldnt fit it at all, but it does barely. Very little clearance between turbo compressor housing and manifold though, I am not able to clock the turbo down as much as I'd like so hopefully that wont lead to a clearance issue with the IC piping when in the car.

Anyway... pics...

[Kevin]

Is that the manifold your getting coated? It'll look good after thats done.

[CMau87]

wow your buddys engine bay is redonkulous!! SOOOOOOOOOOOOO sexy...but the car is commin along awesome and major props for really taking the time to get in there pull the engine and do the bay the RIGHT way..thats dedication oh and that turbo is bigger than my head

i agree i cant wait to see this at a meet or something

[CarbonIS]

we'll be over later to take a look at the engine bay bry, and that manifold definitely needs a coat!

Find me a wrecked one yet?


PS I saw, and picked up, the exhaust in person, and i am extremely jealous.

[D Money]

I can't see pics but im sure it looks good.

are either of you slobs going tonight? wtf!

[TROLL]

yup thats the new (used) manifold... greddy t78 manifold... its really nice, i'm pretty psyched about it. unfortunately fitment with the turbo is tight and it looks like i'll need to have an aluminum 90 degree elbow welded to the turbo outlet for clearance reasons, but i'm going to wait to act on that until the engine is back in the car and i can test fit properly and see if it hits the frame rail as is.

yeah he's got so much time and money into his bay... its really really nice. mine def wont be there from the start but it should be on its way and hopefully i'll be able to work toward doing all the things i want over the winter.

bill... looks like my photoshoot got postponed cause the weather in nnj is crappy, so i'm around whenever today.

d... to etown? i thought it was going to rain... if its clear and people are going i should be able to, but i think racing my car is a little premature since i havent really had time to go over the tune properly yet.
