Im have one made as we talk Dave out of st/st :winky:

[RoadRash]

WOW!

Awsome stuff m8.

But that turbo can produce some lag I think.

After lag you will feel a truck crashing in your back....

Oh... I killed my IS200T a bit today.

We damaged the fuel pressure regulator.

So the car hardly started and didn't even run any more.... DA*N!

Now I'm forced to rebuild it finally to a return-system then it should fly. :D

[TheDon]

looking great fella! realy impressed! more pics as soon as you do anything please!

[Mr Singh]

"UPDATE" i set out today to fit the oil cooler.

well to start of with i could not get the old oil-filter of but i got it of in the end, then when i went to fit the oil-filter adaptor that was ok untill i went to put the filter on..............i could not fit it as there was not much space, in the end up i had to take the adaptor of put the filter on the adaptor and then put it on as one

then i had to put the cooler some where not alot of places i could put it as my cooler is the long one, so i put it just at the back of the RAD at the bottom and i have cut some vents into the uderbody to get lots of cool air to it :)

i will try and get some pic,s in a day or 2

[TheDon]

getting there fella! keep the momentum up!

[Monster-Mat]

Marcus which oil cooler are you using, why not mount the oil cooler behind the upper grill like i have on the race car, the oil cooler on the Monster is mointed between the intercooler and the radiator, but the HKS coler is thin but tall.

a misconception about coolers is they have to be in the airflow, obviously this is ideal but not always needed. If u intend keeping the cooler where itis, can i suggest you make up some duting and channel some cool air to it

Hi matt, yea i was going to put behind the upper grill but the st/st hose i got was only 3ft 3" me thinking that would do it when i got them ;) i did try but the cooler i have is the long and fat one, so would not fit any way

i will keep it where it is and make some duting so i can get lots of cool air to it :winky:

Thanks any way matt for your in put :D

[marcus]

I have just started to fit me Turbo.............just one can some one post a pic of the intercooler pipeing that gos up past the fan & the ECU box ;) so standing looking at the car it would be the right side..............
