Ahh... thanks. It is my gf's camera so i never took the time to learn all the settings and stuff. And yes I found a big leak from my LICP to turbo connection. Put on a new gasket and some RTV and now everything seems fine. My buddy had a big leak in his intake mani and now is getting a sheetmetal one. Something to do with a mod to his traction control that cause the leak I guess. BTW my car made 330whp on 93 octane with my boost leak and his car made 857whp with no leaks and C16. Crazy, haha! |

Sorry these pics suck ass. His car is very clean. 17" CCWs in the rear and 16s up front. How many Supras run that? He also has a fully build motor and some huge Greddy turbo. I want to say 67 trim but not totally sure. Maybe it is 76? whatever. As far as my car goes, well I think I got the leaks fixed so hopefully I am making well over that 330whp. But at any rate the car makes 333lb-ft at the wheels and that feels damn good. I am sticking with the stock turbo for a good while as I plan to get more into auto-x and open track days at Summit Point instead of hanging around the drag strip. I mean it's an EVO, I bought it for handling not straight line acceleration. |
