Has anyone got a picture of these installed in a Supra? I am going to be doing a few track days and will be looking to get one of these bolted and welded in place with welded skin spreader plates. I am quite tall and my head on the right side already just about touches the roof with a helmet on. I just want to see how much head clearance there will be so i can make a decision on whether to buy. Also for people who have these installed can you keep the stock seatbelt? or are harnesses the way forward? Rich

Am i being silly about this and just go and get the AEM?

Just got back from the cinema, we thought it was great, as good as the 1st but better then the 2nd. Animation was fantastic 3D effects were good, lots of action and where there was so much action it was done in slow motion so you could actually tell what was happening. All in all great film 7/10 for me.

Nice one mate, get the vids up!! -
A restrictor ring does not create so much pressure as to stall the turbo. However it does create back pressure to stop the turbo from spinning too fast. If you want a totally free flowing system then you can either change your Jspec Tubs, Manifold etc to UK or get a big single. I have never heard of putting a restriction on the VAC pipes before.

1.5bar is really pushing jspecs mate, most people only go up to 1.2bar max.... 1.5 will shorten the life dramatically if not pop them straight away. IIRC the Euro spec (UK) has a larger wastegate that can handle the higher boost, then you just need a boost controller to increase the boost. Euro spec cars also have steel blades as opposed to the Jspec's ceramic. The steel blades can handle more boost up to 1.4bar but they are slightly slower in spooling. Really you don’t want to be pushing Jspecs past 1.2 bar any higher and you increase the chances the blades will shatter.

You cant restrict boost with a boost controller, only increase it.
-
Yes, a boost controller will only increase boost not decrease it. You will need a restrictor ring.

This isnt a road car, its designed to be a racing car. Personally i think it looks lush, something about race cars and their rawness is what is attractive. Oh i would say the roll cage isnt poorly designed i would imagine its been designed to strict FIA guidlines... which dont care about looks.

Sorry I know I have said that before but she does not ever fail to impress me. Now she loves cars in fact is just as crazy as I am. She got a job Djing at goodwood festival of speed this year for the mini stand all weekend which in itself is cool and has only managed to procure a full weekend pass (thursday to sunday) for for me too I'm well happy.
