Yeah all those Easter egg hunts for keys to luxury sedans mus be taking it out of you.

On the topic of torx, I had an idea the other day...I don't think police carry torx bits with them, so if you were to install "heat shields" in your engine bay covering up...certain items...and said heat shields were fastened using torx screws...how could they inspect your vehicle on the side of the road? :)

yeh but it woould kill trying to fit two wastegates in there.. im trying to keep the whole setup low mount and away

twin gates? twin scroll doesn't need twin gates, its just twin entry into the turbo pretty much

mine only had one internal wastegate

f**k up lol

How much is paint? Rent sprayer from you? > :D

it was like $76 + shipping. yeh i should see where it is first, ordered it like 2 weeks ago now

Yep, don't think they have torx though. Just screwdrivers and sockets. Worth a shot :)

I'd stick a big trollface on the shield too lol.

I want to definitely hit over 300kw with e85. Hopefully I'll be at 20psi by about 3800-4k with the stage 2 cams. Bit laggy but I'm not fussed Using a .82 rear so we'll see how it goes. Can always go a smaller housing

:O

.82 in GTX on 2ltr

I think laggier than 3800rpm, and need at least 24psi to see 300rwkw on a 4 banger

They'd probably just send you straight to the EPA or defect it...Guilty til proven innocent (at your own expense) is the way it seems to go here....

Yeh tuner wants to push 25psi through it, I probably will to get a figure then bring it back under. I think the .82 will be ok, plus if it isn't it's not going to be to hard to go smaller

I thought about this, and I know they can defect you for an exhaust on suspicion...didn't think they could defect you on engine mods they can't see and therefore don't know exist though...what would they write down on the paper? At least if they send you somewhere to get it inspected, it would allow you time to remove the illegal stuff before getting it inspected. You wouldn't avoid the pain in the ass but possibly avoid a fine.

    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
