Hell's Revenge was fun. I need to get back there.

I think so. Not fully committed to which truck is going.

While out taking care of packages, got PO133. Very first CEL since the install.

 

[scottryana]

Sent you a message, P0133 is slow response from the 1st O2 sensor.

Yep, had that pop a couple of times recently, so just replaced both upstream and downstream sensors.

Both of my LXs need the e-brakes done. Trying to decide which goes first

Good lord, that is a lot of kit. I need to do the same to my LX.

I'm scouring this thread, and maybe I just got impatient, but is there a dyno sheet for this turbo system? What happens when it is run without any other modifications (except exhaust obviously)? Cost is $6k?

Info on the turbo kit -> 80 Series 1FZ Wits' End Turbo Kit- CARB Cert-pending, OBD2 only

Yes, $6k. Not sure on dyno numbers.

There was some reporting of the numbers on the last development vehicle. It was something around 220 whp and about 280 wtq. Those are approximately 100 hp and 100 tq improvements on over the baseline vehicle. This is among the most effective real improvements in HP for the cost and being a fully supplied solution. I am sure that someone put an LS motor in their 80 series for $1000 one time. Good for them, but that wouldn't be my mechanically challenged reality. I do believe that I could install the WE turbo. In fact, this turbo kit has gotten me thinking about going the direction of an 80 more than once.

Who has dynoed ther Supercharged FZJ80
