I was able to get it ordered from Curt. There are only 3 check valves in the nation per the Toyota database.

Your intercooler piping is ****.
Yes, the gold sc300 was purchased from "shern" I believe is the name from AZ. Another former member here on CL. He is the one that made the thread about the r154 swap. Its a very well built SC and very clean! We might be doing a single swap on it soon if he pulls the trigger.

Been busy lately with family and holiday stuff so haven't got to much done like I had hoped. Tuning is on hold until the car is done which was suppose to be this week but being sick and the Holiday season here, time hasn't permitted to work on the car much

Anyhow, I made a power steering res and started to work on the downpipe and the rest of the exhaust. Still not sure what i want to do with it. Single vibrant muffler split into dual 4" straight pipe or go with two nice mufflers. Looking to do more of a true straight through exhaust.







4" Downpipe

Looks good bro.

I'm telling you, get you some black SEM spray paint, card board and tape and start painting interior parts and the guys will blow your thread up.

Thanks! A little irritated that the exhaust tubing is delayed in shipping as I was hoping to get most if it cut and done tonight. I guess mother nature has other plans, so looks like this weekend with be a busy one!

I hope to at least have the downpipe/midepipe welded and finished tonight if I have time between work to get the welding gas bottles refilled today.

Thanks! I just like doing things myself so I can say "yea, I built that" lol

Got the mp finished up last night and found out I need to fix the lower part of the dp. Good things its not completely welded up yet. I also got the 4" alumium piping and vibrant muffler for the rest of the exhaust.
