Hate to be the devil's advocate but I would *STRONGLY* advise you to find out WHY the stock setup isn't reaching the preset boost level before you go adding a tap.

The 3SGTE boost control system is pretty robust and if boost is lowered it's usually because thats the failsafe reaction to another ...

Shop around for insurance. My MPS is less than $1k p/a to insure (comprehensive) which is on par/cheaper than some of the cars I owned in NZ

Do a leakdown test. I would be doing one at this point after a rebuild anyway.

There's a bit of CRZ in there too.

I kinda like it. Only a concept though so probably never see production.

Toyota unveiled this here in Aus. Thoughts?

WOFTAM on a turbo car

Went racing

There was a Toyota out too. Ran single digits backing off early.

Also hooning and making the most of summer. Mostly on the bike since the car is still untuned for the new setup. Feels strong though. 2 years in my hands has just passed and I've done almost 50,000km.

^ what turbo? T28?

Went to fire it up and do some pulls on the new engine to do some fine tuning but she's dead as a doorknob so had to go down to kmart and pickup a charger.

Gotta take it in for a roadworthy inspection and emissions test. Not feeling confident about a pass but I'll see what it does I guess.

Bought another bike. First ever brand new vehicle for me (it's the small things...)

Been shopping for a daily bike for the past few months. To replace my little Yamaha. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v665/ionic/2015-01-17%2010.10.54_zps6khg9yjx.jpg

I managed to put ...

If they can't fix it tell them to sublet it to someone who can or to give you a new car with a working camera. Their incompetence is not your problem.

Is this a Toyota dealer and is the warranty through Toyota? I'd be talking to a dealer principal at this point. "We can't fix it because its hard ...

BTW have you been for burn in the newer BL Mazda3, I got to drive a modified example the other day, was insane for fwd.
Shame there isn't a BM Mazda3 MPS in the works.

EDIT: HOLY BUMP FROM THE PAST SORRY I HAVEN"T BEEN HERE RECENTLY

Yeah driven a few. TBH (for me) it's very hard to tell the ...

MPS requires 95. 9.5:1CR + Boost.
No fancy double injectors per cylinder. Just GDI and 2000+ psi fuel pressure from the pump.

Picked up my MPS. I haven't driven this since Jan because I wanted it to get a good freshen up over the winter. It's now back sporting a fresh forged engine, new turbo, mounts, new timing chain and vvt etc. Took it for a quick squirt around the block because I couldn't resist it after using only ...

Oil and Coolant on the bike. Wash and vacuum on car.

It'll eventually need another turbo. Common for them to fail. Loads of stock replacements available. BNRsupercars makes the most cost effective solution. Better than stock in terms of reliability.

It'll be based on a CX7 engine. Smaller turbo than MPS and different management. MPS makes 380nm and is torque limited in the first 3 gears/with any steering angle. Sweet car though.
