    Default Might get another project soon

    haha i blew the turbo on the starion last night so i guess its going to be out of commission for a short while (not tooo long this time)

    i do have a T3 flanged turbo and its a tad bigger haha... but i can just get an adapter plate but shit i'm still running the stock throttle body injection setup so the fuel distribution isn't at good at higher boost on the outer cylinders. sooo i dont wanna put it on and be tempted... I just need a certain shop to make me a intake manifold lolol...

    but anyhow I'm lookin for a 1989 Camry All-trac lolol those are the pimpest cars ever haha... thinkin of droppin a boosted 4A or maybe even a 3S if it'd be possible.

    these things are sick.... most unsuspecting sleepers as well... and seats 4 comfortably HAHA..

    but anyhow im waiting for my next class

    OMFG, that's my dream. But kinda stupid. It'd be faster with a vr6. 1.8T's sound beautiful though.

    Well, I absolutely love the sound the VR6 makes. The 1.8T sounds decent, but I find the constant spooling of the tiny stock turbo annoying. If it had a larger turbo that doesn't spool til 2500rpm or so it would be okay...

    But the reason I say a 1.8T into the Mk1 chassis is because its the closest in weight to the stock engine. The VR6 would ruin the weight balance. I'm going to do this one day.
