I shall let my dad run my car on the track first! I look up to him for my racing skills on the track so he deserves so to drive this car before anyone! Its thanks to all of you on clublexus that this is becoming a reality.
Thank you so much guys for the wonderful words! Love this community. BUT, back to the chinese turbo issues many predict aha. So. My turbo housing has no ports or holes for vacumm lines.... heres a pic
I hope Im not mistaken calling this the housing. Also I looked all over the turbo and found nothing on it either. What can i do to run this turbo?
Also another question. Wbat size studs and nuts should I use for oem oil return spot? I seen on other threads they just list the part numbers but maybe you guys figured out something new?
Fuel injectors are in. The rail is tightened down and is keeping in place. Got the nuts and studs coming in from toyota soon. Now just gotta cap off the EGR lines

You have options, on many turbo's there is a spot boost reference spot that you can use on the compressor housing. Your turbo has a spot for it, but it isn't drilled. My turbo WAS the same. You can buy yourself a
and drill and tap your housing for it and install it. Since the housing is thicker in the spot in the picture below, that is where I would place the fitting:

I would use the same size studs that are mentioned in the other thread. Nothing new since those studs work so well.
It is possible. I personally prefer to get the boost reference from the compressor housing, but I will acknowledge that there are differing lines of thought on this.
One thing against using an intake reference point is that the wastegate diaphragm is not designed to see vacuum... It could cause issues with your wastegate down the line.

Interesting. Although since this is a low boost build plus the waste gate is a cheap Chinese one, it should be fine to run it through the intake for some time right? Plus I plan on upgrading to a much better turbo down the line. Main plan is to just get my poor lil car back on the road asap because Im starting to miss it lol
so another issue fellas. I got the boost labs oil line kit but it has this 90 idk how to connect these to things.
Brand name turbos don’t normally have that flange on the oil inlet. There is a threaded hole for oil. Your turbo has that flange/restrictor on it so you need an adapter.
