Horrible decision. your same car with their 57 trim kit would all around murder the 67mm kit. Spool, power under the curve, fun factor. Don't go with a large turbo unless you have the money to support the drivetrain, fuel system, and tune otherwise it will be boring. Stock ecu deals with quick spooling turbos quite well.

So the 57 trim will be the best bet than for now

Quick question about your wheel set up. what tires size are you running and did you have to do any fender work to make those wheels fit. Also I have a set of LS400 calipers as well did you need to run spacers with that wheel set up?

Okay folks I need heat before it gets cold cold. Can anyone with the 1jay swap show me a diagram or pic of where the heater control valve vacuum lines go. I've been searching for where the little wipe nipple runs to from the heater control valve

Any vacuum source will work for the valve. Just be sure to put a check valve inline, as I don't think the valve likes to see boost.

It is crazy how something you care about can go from "just a car" to "yeah that my SC"
Ohh Steve the Laney 5's are dropping Saturday

Last night some one stole my arm rest out of my car. But they dumbed all the contents out on the passenger seat. But I have an idea to fill the hole to Match my steering wheel
