Now im stressing, you're the second disgruntled customer, with injectors specifically. Anyone have a good experience? @turbodizzle how/where did you get injectors? did he refund you? Thanks

Here is an update on alternator wiring, and i found that pinout, for reference I bench tested the alternator with the exciter powered, found out minimum 3volts a/c. then tied in for the Dakota Digital. their new unit also integrates speedo input, so i also get to correct for my 315’s. Win win...

I was super close to snatching their hybrid, but with exchange rates it was like 1800 plus shipping. Benz injection has got one as well. I really should have gone that route, so much simpler and cheaper. If only this turbo didn't say Toyota on it. HA

Here is the pps harness, and pin out. I repurposed the distributor harness(perfect length)and added one 18 gauge wire, and created a short ground. Fortunately the plug is labeled with the corresponding numbers in the diagram. The factory pigtail i got had different wire colors anyways(98), so...

Downpipe tied into stock exhaust And then a valve body upgrade from transgo. Also, cranked the line pressure a notch. Hope to have nice firm shifting, it wasnt honestly that bad with the turbo. This kit has been sitting around my shop for a couple of years. Anyone interested, there is this...

So your assessment is the turbine housing is too large, and 15PSI is not enough... I do believe mine spits 20 PSI since its upgraded. When I was looking up what guys are doing with the hybrid kkk stock turbos, both wheel sizes appeared to be similar. If I hate it, Ill go to this...

I think it is this one, ATS CT26 Turbocharger Upgrade - ATS Racing - https://www.atsracing.net/Parts/Details/TUR-CT26 I picked the turbo up on MR2 FB pages for like $200. After my second event at road course(NASA-SE), I ended up yanking the 3sgte motor and swapping a 2GR. I measured the...

99 E300D Diagram below.

Connection to Throttle Body: This was steel, not aluminum The reason i used a keyring is it helps the rotation of the throttle to be less of a “camming” and more of a straighter pull, like it normally would be hooked to the Mercedes pedal. I may eventually build a little “u” bracket with to m6...

PPS Bracketry Anothernord had a great setup using the OEM 1fz throttle body to control, kickdown, cruise, throttle input, and now we’ve added pps input to that same body. For those who dont know, the esc pump uses a PPS or Pedal postion sensor to control the injection pump. It is a six pin...

And now we are playing with some fun stuff… Turbo cam back from coating. The amount of adapters on this thing is ridiculous, what we do for stuff that says Toyota on it! I am currently doing harness work, om harness is done(not much too it). My plan is to strip things out of the 1fz...

The m104 is great, definitely removes a lot of bs, and the overall filter size is smaller. I am fiddling with the oil outlet. The m104 oil pressure has a wierd m12 1.25 outlet. I could not find anything to convert to 1/8npt(1fz oil pressure sender). I took a 3/4 male to 1/8npt malefrom lowes...

So i have done a few little things since the last update. Power steering was by far the easiest. I just cut and reflared my factory line. Stock 1fz bolt threads right in for the banjo/pump side. There is the option of cutting the hose down to reduce the length, but i would have had to have...

I read through this thread, STD - https://superturbodiesel.com/std/showthread.php?tid=6666a I had heard some chatter about this before. In order to avoid extra work: I did install a smaller WP pulley and deleted the EGR. Larger turbo, and am going with a m104 housing, not sure if that matters. I...

Damn, where did you get yours? I hate to be out 500 but I really don't want problems. How did you determine they were leaking?
