Turbo, 37s and 5 speeds would be a dream!

Turbo, 32s and a 5-speed is nice too.

How many more Cheetos will the turbo Produce? I’m asking because I’m in the process of moving to 37 with my 93, and obviously gears will be my first mod, but thinking about more power down the road…

Stage 1 on a truck with 35’s and 4:10s with a 350k+ mile trans made 64 horse more and 100 more ftlbs to the ground on 7 lbs. Ground #’s 146 hp to 210 and 190 ftlbs to 290. “stage 1” on 93 should be able to produce more because of the more advanced/tunable ecu. Add big fuel injectors/intercooler and then turn up the boost you’ll have more oomph in an 80 than you’ll ever need.

We’re chasing those dreams

I’m totally in for the dog!

Once my rig is back from paint let’s meet up for driving and beers in that order!

Can I come?

Johnny, what's the consensus on adding methanol into the mix?

Haven’t done it yet and honestly with the IC I really don’t think it’s necessary at all. All the IAT’s we’ve seen have been plenty cool with the IC.

Really interested in the price point of the OBD-I kits. Was going to go LS but the mechanic that was going to do the swap for money owed passed away and I am starting over again. Would love to keep the Toyota!

Price will be posted soon. Definitely cheaper than a proper LS swap. I’m talking new connect and cruise not a junkyard swap.

What's is the consensus on oil catch cans for/on boosted motors?

Consensus is only that boosting the motor changes the dynamics of the PCV system such that intake manifold will not be lower pressure than crankcase at boost.

The “so what” is dependent on your motor condition, your own interpretation of potential damage from blowby into turbo and your risk tolerance.


I’m a fan because I threw the turbo on a motor with 180K miles with no work to it. Probably needs a top-end rebuild but yolo…>10K miles and here I am.

I always have some blow by in there and it gives me some peace of mind to get intake clean.
