Well I had the White FR-S. I wasn't there very long though. Someone told me there was a 2JZ FR-S there but I didn't see it.

That's not what he meant. I saw the car and was in it yesterday so I understood what he meant instead of how it read.

I'd just like to know why the air intake for the turbo (I think that's what it is) is in the back of the engine bay and not next to the front on the other side of the intake - considering how this car can be made to mirror the intake on the other side. Would that be a bad set up? I really don't know much regarding turbo/turbo set up schematics - hoping to learn ~ ![]() What's that metal tube closest to the bottom for? Thanks ~ |

TiAl V-band housings are designed so that the housings are interchangable in form factor between GT25 all the way to GT37
he just hung a bigger Turbo and stuffed a bigger intercooler. (hopefully a MV-R wastegate also) |

The metal tubes are intercooler piping. On the left side (of the car, right side of the pic) is the pipe coming from the IC to the TB and on the right side of the car (left side of pic) is from the turbo to the intercooler.

Thanks for the explanation!
Have there been any in motion/field temperature measurements taken from where the rear intake is? I'm curious how much heat the d-4s makes back there I see there isn't much room for an aftermarket strut that hits the side and back center :/ |

As far as why the intake is there, I doubt 3" piping will fit above the engine, but it might. Even if it would, Im not sure the air temp infront of the engine would be all that much better than where the filter is there. It would definitely be a lot of work. |
