Hello everyone,
Found your forum while searching the web for turbo informaion for the sc300. I just ordered a Boostlogic turbo kit for my 97 sc300 and I am looking for anyone who has installed one before. I would like to know if what issues you had, how you like it and basic over all performance? Below is a list of parts that I will be installing. This is phase 1 and already planning phase 2, that is after I save up more cash. If you guys see anything else I missed please feel free to pipe in.

Looks good

But I've never seen a T61 with a 3" compressor inlet...is it supposed to be a 4" intake/filter?

you will need a obd2 fooler if your getting rid of the cat convertor.

 

From talking to Kean at boostlogic this one will have the 4". unless I miss understood him. The kit should arrive in 2 more weeks. Then I will post some photos of the kit.

 

Ok, fill me in. I have not heard of this?

 

awesome! sounds like you have some fun ahead of you. I wish they made kits like that for the 4 - if you dont mind me asking what is the general price of a kit like this?

 

my mistake, the t61 will have a 3".

 

Lets try this again. The kit with 550cc injectors is around $5000.00. I have $1000.00 in gauges and controllers and 500 in 3mm headgasket and misc parts. When I am done this phase it should be around 7500.

 

Go with an AEM and get rid of the Mass Airflow sensor. Other wise you will still have the annoyance of possibly having the engine cut when you hit the gas and then have to brake. If you stay with the MAS setup get the larger newer one that comes in the SupraTT. It has much better flow.

 

Derf, nice seeing you again at the meet today. He has a sweet SC 300 just waiting for some FI....

 

as far as i know, i am the only one with a boostlogic parts on their SC here. I really dont have the full kit from them, I am only using the FMIC pipes, and Manifold. Of those 2 things the quality looks awesome!

From the things mentioned it looks like your on the right track. I dont know what esle you are going to need, but if you do a search I am sure that you will be able to find all the info you can get.

Can you list the parts and the mods that you have done to get 400+. I am still trying to get a good feel for what I will get out. Thanks for the info.

 

I have a jet coated manifold and downpipe and also a non-coated midpipe.

 

you may have trouble controlling those 550s with just a SAFC, may want to look at an emanage

 

I'll PM you the info

Oh, my mistake, its quality is it not?
