bens sc,
nice part choices . Let us know how much power you can achieve on stock headgasket with the MSD 6BTM .

im going to mount the wideband in the downpipe about 10 inches away from the turbo, i will have to drill the hole for it and have the bung welded which is no big deal. the problem i had the most fin with so far has been drilling and tapping the oil return line. what a major pain in the ***. i tried to post a pic of the parts for install but the pic was to big, i resized it and the system still wouldnt take it. i guess i will try to use photobucket.

after reading allllllllll your posts and some others i had decided to run 10 psi on stock compression and see how it goes for a while. if i start to crave more i will do a 2mm headgasket and arp headstuds, and shoot for 14 or 15 psi and retune. i have an appointment at my tuner in 2 weeks so i dont have alot of time to get this thing running.

All this reminds me how fun it was to turbocharge mine. And sometimes I want to do it again.

But then I look at my Nissan and realize how much more EXPENSIVE the Lexus was overall and how much of a hassle tuning was. If only the Toyota ECU was hacked like the Nissan ECUs... I'd much rather have a turbo SC than a turbo 240sx

How close is that to the shock tower? IIRC the turbonetics kit (and any other kit I can remember) DONT come with on-center exhaust housings. If you had a tangential, it would tuck down a little bit more.

nasc300

The turbonetics kit and the fmax kit use the on center housing. Tangential will not fit.

This is the first time i've seen the o2 sensors on the manifolds. I wonder what the diffrence is, if there is any, with a setup like this compared to one where the o2's are on the dp. Everything looks good though . Good luck with your install. Keep us updated when you get some numbers.
