hmmm no idea man lol

 

> Just expect Jesus to contact you at some point to pick your brain for a similar project on my FC.

 

lol.

 

I wrapped the ypipe and the complete downpipe today.

WOW, much lower temps under the hood, better response and more power.

It also quieted it down a lot. I guess I really was hearing the exhaust noise through the thin metal pipes.

I can't even feel it pulling timing anymore, intake air temps must be way down.


I highly recommend wrapping it!


On a side note, breaking in the wrap was fun. Smoke everywhere at a few stoplights, people looking really confused :P

 

Do you happen to have any wiring reference material you'd be willing to share? I'll be taking on this swap soon and am not interested in paying someone else to get r' done. Pm me!

 

Yeah i'd be more than happy to help you out.

Here is a list of bookmarks that helped me out a lot for this swap:

for the y pipe and the entire down pipe it took about 70-80 feet of 2 inch wrap! expensive but worth it IMO


I'll be re dynoing once i finish the rest of the exhaust. still have the stupid restrictive stock rx7 exhaust.

I'm going to make a custom catback from scratch for under $100.

Going to run 3 inch pipes for the exhaust (dual) and open up the stock mufflers and mod them to flow better.

It will look stock, but be FAR from it

 

I just modded the stock mufflers, nice increase in power, not too much more sound. 1st gear is almost useless even with the LSD hehe

 

Are you running the stock TII fuel pump? I'm curious how the stock fc fuel system reacts to the 1jz.

 

stock pump, AFR gauge says no problems. we'll see what it's limits are then swap it out for a walbro probably.

300whp on a piston motor takes less fuel than a rotary

 

NEW VIDEO:

hard to tell by the video but it's loads faster than it was in the last video. Speedo lags like crazy.

I finished a 3 inch cat back with the modded stock mufflers. It's still very quiet...

guessing about 250-270whp with this set up

 

Dynoed again today.

Exhaust mods alone it made 250-260whp, 266 ftlbs!

Thats up about 25-30 from stock exhaust

Then I turned up the boost a little

13.5 psi peak dropping to 11 by redline = 268whp

14.5 is peal dropping to 12.5 by redline = 280-285 whp, 277ftlbs

Car is starting to haul *** now

Might switch to a better cat back, I know it's holding the power back. It's still very quiet actually.

Overall very happy.

 

sweet project man! Where did you buy your engine from??

 

JDM Planet on ebay http://myworld.ebay.com/jdm_planet

very good to deal with.

 

Hey how did you wired the check engine light?

 

Nice, Ive loved mine since 2002 I was able to get 296rwhp on stock boost. I lived in sac for like 5 years, you may have seen my car.

hi im currently doing this conversion in australia with a 2jz with my rx7

I have 2 threaded lines coming from my rx7 steering rack,

but the 2jz p/s pump only has a spot for one outlet the main pressure source?

so what did you do with the small threaded hose when you got your hoses made up?

cheers daniel

 

Just block it off.

 

oh righto so its just an excess return line or something is it?

has anyone gone over the 500hp mark with a single turbs yet on here with their fc?

just wonderin how everything in the driveline holds up with the torque figures

involved if anything broke?

 

lets see pictures. must have moved the files?

 

there's some here

 

Wow, I hope you didn't sell this thing for only $1050... Nice project either way.

 

Well Gents it's alive! Finally.

 

After we quickly realized it was a reverse flow fpr, it fired right up.
