Another V8 supra

[Damo_supra]

I don't know what to do yet, I really don't want to cut into the bonnet.
At the moment I'm getting it tuned.
I can't shave the manifold, because of the intercooler inside.
If I have sufficient room around the crossmember and frame, I might shave the engine mounts. Will see when I get the supra back.

hi Damo Supra

get some custom made engine mounts and this will allow you to lower the engine in the engine bay so you dont have to touch the bonnet.

The set that i got made for my car cost me about $450 for the set and are about 1" lower then std, and the good thing about them, you can reuse them if you have to pull the engine out, not like the std factory one's that will break on you.

I asked Andrew for a 15psi pulley and got a 10-12psi pulley (88mm).
So if I was supplied with the right pulley, it should clear the bonnet.
I think the 15psi pulley is around 70mm??? correct me if I'm wrong.
But if that's the case, then it should clear.
I'm surprised I got the manifold for the 1UZ and not the LS1!

LOL does seem to be a recurring theme

This was from a fairly safe tune as we still need to get into the timing a bit more, so I expect a little more...

Great to see that you got it running damo

When does max psi come on, about 2500-3000rpm?

Funny thing i noticed, your showing more KW then what my is doing @5000rpm(we seeing just short off 200kwrw), but my NM is throught the roof (800nm and still climbing) but we are still playing around with my setup.

Be great to see the final result

From memory around 2500rpm full boost.

Good luck with yours!
