  1. Thanks
    Adam9 got a reaction from Leeky in General FI questions - Rod strength and supercharger whine   
    I've seen a couple let go with no boost at all, its a total lottery. Some of the US cars are running 400+ bhp on stock rods and I think the TD dev car is currently running ~380bhp on a stock engine.

    You can't change the standard midpipe with the TD midpipe it will not fit. Changing the midpipe will have little effect keeping the standard backbox, and I am unaware of anyone who actually sells an off the shelf aftermarket one, so will be a custom job. You will need a full cat back system, midpipe and back box.

    Let's do something. I've met up with a few European friends before, in Belgium, Germany and Switzerland. If you have any cool events going on over there, do please let me know.

    Finally pulled the trigger on a turbo install from Mike at TD.  I couldn't be happier, the car feels incredible. Mike was super helpful all the way through, couldn't have asked for better communication. Even went the extra mile (literally) - making an hour long trip up to KSport HQ to pick up replacement calipers for me after they sent out the wrong ones to make sure all the work was done in time for my pickup.  If you're in any doubt about pulling the trigger on this - stop wasting time and go for it, you wont find a better option.

    I find the super resonator plenty loud enough, the standard one was hooligan.  I have the TD UEL manifold.

    IIRC about a week or so. Only weird thing is you have to phone up and pay over the phone which feels very weird these days with no email confirmation!

    Just don't like the look of it from any angle at all. It doesn't make me think of the old supra either.

    Just a quick post to say thank you to all whom have been in contact over the last 12 months with us, be it for simple questions/parts orders through to turbo kits, we appreciate each and every enquiry that comes to us.
     
    From all of us here we'd like to wish everybody a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, more of the same for next year

    Another problem I'm about to run into - Fitted the TD Manifold, exhaust etc myself just getting things slowly in place to book in with @Mike@TD.co.uk for a turbo install in the new year, didn't want to pay for a remap only to have to pay again in a month or 2 when I get the turbo.... Problem is as mentioned the CEL comes on every few days - not usually a problem except I'm now due an MOT and it would be a fail if it comes on during the test. Just going to have to cross my fingers it stays off.

    Panel wipe like this would probably be the most effective solution, if that doesn't shift it then you are probably out of luck.

    I was one of the Moderators on the MR2OC for many years (first took up position in around 2004) prior to me selling up a couple of years ago and buying the GT86, I've also helped to organise the OC's club stands at JAE for the past 8 years...
    I'd like to get more involved with the GT86 owners as I did with the MR2 folk, so if I can help in any way I'd be more than happy to lend a hand
