pjavon Posted July 7, 2014 Author Share Posted July 7, 2014 Sorry guys, totally lost the love for a while and left it in the garage for about 10 months. Anyway I've kicked myself up the arse got it back on the road and fixed the problem. I've had it mapped locally and it made 297 at the wheels so around 350-360 at the fly at 7psi with a floor air temp of 29 degrees according to the dyno on the day. I've just done a 250mile round trip this weekend without a hitch so absolutely made up and the love is back BIG TIME:d Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pjavon Posted July 13, 2015 Author Share Posted July 13, 2015 No updates as such mate. I've plumbed the screamer pipe into the exhaust over the winter, the novelty of the noise had worn off, but apart from that I've just been enjoying it lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh42 Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Great looking car Paul, glad To hear you're still enjoying it. I too intend to reroute my screamer into my exhaust...novelty has worn off! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pjavon Posted July 14, 2015 Author Share Posted July 14, 2015 Thanks Josh. It's not just me being an old git then lol I liked it on WOT but general driving it used to annoy me. I can actually hear the turbo whistle in the car now which is nice:eyebrows: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marco79 Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 Looking great as always bud I've missed out on the supra love so far this year unfortunately. Can't beat that feeling you get when out on the open rd ....... or some twisty country roads ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest WBsupra Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 thank you for your work with showing photos of the na-t conversion in the forums. it helped me in many ways (especially since websites say one must remove the oilsump and therefore the front axle to drill the hole for the turbochargers oil-return instead of drilling it just into the oilsump). i have some questions left and hope you can help here too: - did you fully removed the maf because you switched to another ecu or where did you place it? - where did you place the iat sensors? - what are the sensors you put into the pipe between air filter and turbocharger (some of the mentioned above)? - did it cause problems to tee the bov's hose on the boost gauge's hose? thanks alot!
