Numbers, anywhere from 250+ ... after the manual tranny swap we'll probably go higher.

It's also gonna be running a water/alcohol injection system

for fuel, i'm getting a new walbro 255 fuel pump and a new regulator and either an SMT6 or greddy emange to handle everything.

Big update:


Mounted and welded up the intercooler and ziptied an RSX or TSX? lip to the bumper.

A couple of bolts and zipties later everything was back in place. The intercooler sits a little lower than I expected, but we're gonna raise it up a little and try to even it out a little.

Overall I'm happy with the progress.

New lip looks pretty cool too =P













So for now stage 1 which was the intercooler and some prep work is out of the way.

This weekend I have a few things non-turbo related to do to the car. Fix that new lip up some more, fix the fogs, rotate tires, and strip the other camry.

Stage 2 is gonna be the battery being moved and the turbo being set into place.

Stage 3 piping, flanges, lots of welding and fittings

Stage 4 ECU, tuning, misc. electronics, full inspection and monitoring.

Stage 5 New exhaust

Stage 6 FUN!


Updates for stage 2:

We've got some space for that dang turbo now!

I can't believe it.... Its actually about to go in!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've also planned on doing a beefy water injection system, which means we can boost a little higher and we know thats gonna be fun ; )
