I like how your setup runs. It move rather quick in a short distance from what I saw on your video. also it looks like you still have stock suspension and stock wheels are still on your car. As long as you have those stock 16's on your traction will be only a dream for you. But in all nice work man !!!!!!!!

Great setup bro! Congrats!!!

Man makes me want to start putting my turbo setup in my car right now. I'm still missing a few pieces of my setup, larger injectors, E-management, and etc. What injectors and e-manage should I get? Sorry about questions but I'm still a noobie at this turbo thing.
Thanks,
David

the injectors worked about a week

then i guess dirt got pulled in them and 3 were stuck wide open.

so there out getting rebuilt should have them back in with in a week or two.

did some tuning on a back road got the car to idle at 14 afr
crussing at 10.5 afr, wot 11.7 afr

made a world of differnce in hp

soon as i let off wot i get check engine light but i goes off after 5 secs

but it only comes on when i go from 100% wot to 0% throttle and only if i hold wot for more than 5 sec

p.s. why does it go super lean 16-17 afr
when the engine is engine braking ( when your engine is slowing down the car like sim jake brake. and thats the only time it does it

so am i lol

but it all depends on what your hp goal is and how deep in debt your willing to go and plan to add at least $500-$1000 to you final debt

i planed to spend $1000 on turboing my car and just in parts ive spent $2000

saved about $1000 by doing everything by myself,

tuning runs about 150-200 per hour

not to sure on the injectors and emangement all depends on what type of car , year, engine,trans, engine mods, hp goal

i would change out that distributor cap for the 4Runner cap so it can clear up the intake a little easier. Other than that, nice setup! post up times when you get the chance!

at wot you afr's should be at about 11-11.7. at partial throttle cruising your car should be at 14.7 to about 15.5. idle should be at 14.7 to 15.5 as well. some people get it into the 16's at cruising and idle.

running too rich is not good either. you can wash out your cylinder walls
