Shiftgate Performance 3/4 done w/1mzfe turbo

I curious to see how this will turn out. It'll be cool to see more turboed V6 Solaras. I know it'll never be as reliable as the s/c, but I just love to see a Solara with an intercooler.

seems like they might have thrown the project out the window.

their copyright thingy at the bottom is 2003.

who knows... fingers crossed!

Dont worry updates to come but been overloaded and the test Solara has a blown engine due to water entering the custom CAI the owner had installed

I'll start saving up for a turbo kit now

An intercooler would look great with the R34 bumper.

Yeah, and it would also look good with my black widow bumper.

4500, I guess that's not that bad. I love the s/c, but I'm wondering if their will be heat issues when moving up to 7-8-9psi. That's why I'm kinda interested in the turbo and i/c.

well check toyotanation.com

tony the tiger finished his v6 turbo

14k so far (just in the motor)

then again hes going for 700fwhp

he also said hes going for 350 street hp

then there is wraith (justin) who could own a viper for how much he put into his car

BATTLE FOR THE FASTEST CAMRY RAGES ON!!!!!!!! (bullish solara's dont count :evil:

)

Yeah, I've been watching them. They are some inspirations. I don't quite have the money yet for such an upgrade, but I'm hoping this wait will let me see how the motor is holding up.
