Thanks...

 

Slowly coming back together....







As a side note...I turned the key to on to check that all is good electrical and tested that I wired the backup light correctly...All is good so far

I just need to mock up intercooler piping and get downpipe modified to fit BW and I should be able to crank it over

 

Playing around with SC400 OEM lip....It is in pretty rough shape but its not to far gone to bring it back...

 

Intercooler came in today...



Started to get pipes fitted...3" piping just fits underneath the headlight....

 

Thats exactly how I ran my piping, under the headlight. I still till this day, dont understand why people choose to cut holes in the car to run it, where there is plenty of room to do it there. All you have to do, is pinch off a little of the plastic under the headlight to clear and you will have zero fitment issues. It also has room to move around.

Car looks good. I am anxious to se what it makes!

 

Yep I dont understand either why not to run it there...and it looks very clean. I got the idea from your build thread ...I initially was trying to run it similar to the cold side but it wasnt going to work out as nicely

I put in 12psi springs in wastegate....im hoping around 400hp would be nice..

 

Starting to look like a SC again... The intercooler is hardly visibly behind the bumper....Exactly what I was going for was to make it a sleeper...

 

PHR High Pressure Power Steering Line...I figured for that kind of money they could of at least included new copper washers...

 

Nice! Nice! and very Nice! looking good brother!

Thanks Man....

 

Is this stupid thing done yet or what? LOL

 

That is sweet! That front mount intercooler fits nicely in there....what kind of HP will you be pushing when done?

 

Really soon.....I decided to get a new radiator as well....should be here today

 

Some recent updates.....Just got back my downpipe and intercooler piping from welding.... Downpipe was a fleabay one....but I knew would need to modify it to fit marmon flange....here is what I came up with...





Also picked up some Toyota Red Coolant.....$28 a gallon.....ouch...



Pics of BOV flange welded onto IC piping...

 

Not sure on actual HP numbers but I have the wastegate springs set to 12psi....to start....after break it in for a few hundred miles I may up it to 14 psi....which will max out the factory aristo ECU
