Forced Induction turbo stuff...

about the pump ... is there a regulator in the tank that maintains pressure? and if it does, is it always the same throughout the rpm band or does it change?

speaking of tuning, i know honda guys just run a 3 bar MAP sensor and bigger injectors and their car runs without any SAFC/E-Manage adjustments(this just scales the fuel maps). after this mod, they only had to adjust the pulsewidth by about 5% to get a perfect tune - so this gets you within 5%. without an e-manage. is this possible on a corolla? i'm not suggesting i'm going to run this setup, but it would be good for people on a budget i think.

FMU's are a pain to tune with. As for the stock regulator, it's in the pump housing and keeps a constant pressure no matter what the RPMs are. If you want a straight bolt on, you're not going to find one without doing a little bit of modifying. monkeywrenchracing.com has a pump that requires minimal cutting of the fuel pump housing to make it fit.

(offtopic i know) but are you boosted yet, vamp?

No. Still waiting on fucking parts from Samco. I have all my welding connections set up, but I can't do anything without my custom silicone couplers.

damnit, u better put up some dyno sheets and plenty of pics when its all finished

It must be nice to have been able to keep your a/c! I had to uninstall mine for more room. It really sucks, especially in this summer heat. Nice set up though! As far as 1ZZ-FE Turbo'ed dyno results. A local friend of mine(Manual) is sitting on 230whp at 8-10lbs.

Damn I would love to have 200+hp in my 01 rolla. I would pay 3 - 4k to make it happen too if there was just a kit. I can't afford to have my car offline for weeks while I build and tune a turbo. I just want to install it and go. I've also been thinking about buying a built motor from MWR. They claim there N/A 8:1 big bore engines make 150 - 180 WHP without any boost.

That sounds a bit high..the last time I emailed Matt about it, he said I'd have similar horsepower and slightly more torque running big bore 8:1 vs my current (stock) 10:1 @ 1.8l.

well guys after so long i got some off the manifold done, we called so many places and went to so many places where the would qoute $200usd for a flange !!! could you believe that. Anyway we finally got the flanges. the intercooler piping is almost done (it was done but jtweezy kinda wrecked. i bought some extra flanges for the corolla, well just one i will be doing another exhaust manifold, its made out of 304 polished stainless steel, wiht 1/2" flanges im selling it for $400 if anyone is interested you guys can pm or shoot me an email to eloyshick@hotmail.com in case you want the downpipe too let me know, we can deal something out, if you want the whole kit let me know too we will work something out. i need to know before next week, that when i start on jweetzys car, if someone later on wants a t-kit let me know, you might have to drive down here so i can do it for you. mmand if you want pics let me know, its cause i dont know how to upload them to the forum LOL!!

That's great man! can't wait to see pic!!!!
