This is the brochure they sent me Here is a full list of what the kit features. this is with the 3mm upgraded mani.. Tubular manifold with a T4 turbo mount and a 4 bolt wastegate flange. This the same manifold as companies such as SRT and Boostlogic except we made a few changes in the construction changed a couple pipe degrees for better blow and clearance which we have patented. 3in Vband down pipe. Now you will have to modify your y pipe but this is simple. We have people cut the y off and extend it to the down pipe with a change over exhaust pipe. T4 Turbo which is designed spot on to the Garrett GT35 its oil driven journal bearing with a .60 ar on the hot side and a .86 ar on the cold side. This translates into full spool around 3k HKS Style 50mm wastegate which has a 10psi spring in it already but if desired to go lower or higher HKS 50mm springs work well with it. 100% Bolt on intercooler kit. This kit utilizes a large intercooler without getting rid of your crash bar. It also comes with the brackets to mount it. The hot side piping is 2.5 and the cold side is 2.75 which accommodates the stock MAF specs and location. All 3ply couplings and t-bolt style clamps. BOV is Greddy RS spec Comes with all oil feed components such as the t-fitting for the engine block, oil fittings for the turbo feed and drain,oil feed steel braided line, and oil drain line. All hardware for mounting the manifold,turbo,wastegate,bov, etc in included in the kit. Also comes with all gaskets for everything including manifold to engine. Price for the entire kit shipped to the US is $1350 UK SHIP would be approx $300 extra

I will be heading to where I'm building engine this week end, got a better colour for the block, then aim to work on the head.

A better photo of the manifold, may get some better pics when the last parcel arrives.

Tbh I now realise that this is for passenger side, I really needed the handle for lever on drivers. although this looks in great nick, I may take it of you hands anyway, I'm going have a double check of the state of mine as your may be an improvement. -

You still got these geezer? -
So plans are this weekend to get the valves lapped in and replace seals. I've had to order a new colour for the block so that delayed block by a week. Thinking I should put all new sensors in the block while it's out, they can't be too expensive. Will dig out the tt gasket, which after 18 months is buried in the shed now. What's people's thoughts about cam gears if some generic ebays are fine then could get some new shiny ones...
-
So it came out looking like the block was 3D printed ffs. I now don't know whether to run with it, pop some clear coat or to choose a darker blue and treat this like a primer. I put another couple coats down and I will return to see the results at the weekend. I couldn't take more photos in between laughing. I have a feeling there were a couple spots which still held grease so will have to clean them up an patch up.
-
Soooo... I bought some Hycote VHT paint, found a colour which had a deal on 3 cans... I decided that would make the decision on colour scheme... hmmm....
-
The block got prepped for a spray, another 3 scrub downs later, I could finally mask up the block **NOTE I did realise to mask off the whole oil filter area before it was to late (not shown here)
-
I did a bit of work on the head. I left the cylinder heads soaking in ATF to check for leaks and loosen carbon deposits then the head got a thorough clean I doused the internals with WD-40 to for protection until further work

Hi guys so here it is, the start of the project write up I said I would do. So I bought a spare GE block 18 months ago with the view to turbo it. At the time the supra was a daily and felt the best thing to do was slowly build up the engine as much as possible before the transplant. This being my first build I think it took me 18 months to build up the courage to start, that and hell of a lot of research, to be honest I was much of a silent member in that time, reading up on a lot but maybe not asking enough questions or getting involved in discussions. Just felt I didn't know enough to warrant input. It was the last few weeks getting stuck into the forum that clarified a lot of my own research and simply provided answers and solutions to questions I could not answer myself. Right the build, so it was my initial intentions to build a kit up myself, I kept an eye out for things I could afford to pick up from members, the main items being a free tt head gasket w/ the engine, a spare autobox, Emanage ECU, and a HKS intercooler. This kit was taking forever to build up so needed some cash injection. so a month ago I made the decision to not fear spending and get the parts in. I started talking to Dan8 who was also starting a NA-t build and that has been a real help to have someone to bounce ideas off and two lots of research compiled. I ended up injecting some cash into the project to get it moving deciding to buy the XS power 2020 kit in-order to simplify the project and really get it moving. My goal is for 400bhp and to fully re-build engine as I am uncertain of blocks history. I wanted to future proof the engine in case I wanted to dial up the boost in the future too. I also have the view to uprate the autobox using DaveP hybrid specs. so a few weeks I started with stripping the block.

Thanks for the help, I ended up going for an XS power tho. Will be starting a build thread soon.
-
Hi all, Considering a whifbitz log manifold for Na-t build, will suit my 450bhp build for now, had thoughts of replacing it in future if I wanted bigger power. Thought I'd see if others had done the same and still had the old log knocking about they were willing to sell. Cheers Chas

I think dan8 has one up on sale section.
