Want to build costom turbo kit. Need advice from boosted guys! - Page 4 - Toyota Yaris Forums

pimp my yaris · 07-19-2010, 04:37 PM

Ya I may try a mbc later. Its already a 8psi actuator. Thats gonna be pushing it for a stock motor. I think I will use some header wrap for the down pipe. And mabe another piece of sheet metal between the turbo and fire wall. The only thing close to the turbo is the brake line that runs to the passenger side front wheel.

Update: I ordered a front mount intercooler and 2.25" piping kit and also an additional piping kit as well and a adjustable bov that can be piped to recirculate. And a oil feed line with t fitting to tap into pressure sensor. This size should work well. My turbo,T/B and air box should fit 2.25" silicone connectors. I am going to try to use the stock air box and mass air. It may cause problems with fitting intercooler piping later though. I also have a question guys> Where are you tapping into to get your coolant for the water lines on the turbo?? I am thinking heater core lines would be the most obvious choice. But Im not positive.
If anyone is intrested, so far I spent 876.99$ including shipping

2.25" is correct on the I/C pipe size. You will not be able to use the stock air box, it wont be able to be pressurized. IMO you do not have to flow coolant through the turbo.

I am planing on putting the mass air before the turbo. That way I can hopefully use stock air box and cut down on costs.

wow you dont waist much time do you. looks nice its coming together

cali yaris · 08-08-2010, 01:12 PM

heater core lines will work fine. I have to check mine, I thing we used one in a different place that was available off the block.

cali yaris · 08-08-2010, 02:21 PM

If the turbo has water line inlets/outlets, use them! -- I love not needing a turbo timer or to have to sit there for 30 seconds idling before I jump out of the car.

So there you go, two opinions to consider.

Malarky!, the shaft of the turbo is still spinning like 1,000,000 mph like a speeding bullet you want to keep it cooled down. If the turbo has useable ports for water cooling, use them as alot of the heat is transfered into the coolant and pulls it away.

Race you to be the first to finish their build.

cdydjded · 08-09-2010, 01:55 PM

pimp: I would suggest to use the coolant lines that run through the throttle body if you are going to run coolant lines through the turbo

Thanks for the idea. I think that will be much easier then the heater lines. I dont want to restrict those lines, it gets to dam cold here in winter!

Yoda · 08-09-2010, 02:37 PM

^that might work actually

pimp my yaris · 08-09-2010, 08:21 PM

Well I just picked up some used 1ZZ injectors that were for sale on E-bay. If anyone was thinking about picking them up, TO LATE I got um! New total 939.49

Bad for you I have a set of these for sale for much less

The Aem is a good choice but an expensive one although you would be happy with it.

I think that intercooler is good for now but if you are thinking of more boost later on you will regret you didn't bought one better.

Don't rush out and do think before you act. Getting the right parts now is an investment for the future and you would not regret the time spent for research!

Good luck!

I bought used injectors off ebay for 62.00$ with shipping. 939$ is total for eveything I spent so far including Turbo, manafold, intercooler, two piping kits, oil&coolant lines. Still need to buy AEM fic, AEM widebend, stai less pipe for downpipe and exhaust output flange for gt25 turbo. O ya I need more Flow$. Any one got donations

Nexus1155 · 08-11-2010, 10:58 AM

The AEM UEGO is a hunk of crap but im sure it will integrate well with the AEM FIC which is always a plus. Parmas, I doubt he will build his car to handle extreme boost, that FMIC will do him good for any boost he needs to push on that turbo.

Oversizing the intercooler and piping for it, and for exhaust in the car is a common mistake alot of people make.
