money is not the issue, i own a turbo scion tc, and a 1.5jz sc300, i just dont see the justification in tial vband for the low power goals, but as he already explained its more of a space saver for him so i respect his decision

Its not a space saver. Its literally it bangs against the frame or it doesn't. Where I put the turbo keeps the header and only replaces the 2nd exhaust pipe to keep it remotely economical and still keep atleast 1 catalytic converter. :happy0180:

Although I can care less about the cats. Most people will want to keep them even if its just for some fume removal

Thanks for the consideration. Inspections are nutso in Texas (or at least every inspection shop I've hit).

Don is she up and running yet, or are you still altering the design? It sounds as though you at least have it in the car?

[Don@Accelerated]

It goes in and out as I make revisions. Changing the IC piping again. Heres a picture of today w/ the bracket now on it.

Now changing to a Tial Housing and Tial MVS wastegate.

Forgot to post the pic? lol

WTA IC in the battery box location... perhaps? Hard to see what's going on there :P

Looks pretty tidy. Looking forward to seeing the results!

That's not a bad idea. Could move battery to trunk. With such a small turbo, you could get away with a relatively small WTA package.

[Don@Accelerated]

IC is in the front bumper. Thats the battery in the picture

Looking forward to ~250whp without blowing shit up
