My little project - IS200 Turbo - Bandit - 30-08-2017

Very good mate, Bet it wont take too long to get sorted and back to you once the work starts? and a good thing is with all the bits you're having fitted, is that it gives you a bit of play if you ever want a bit more power?

Is it going to mapped at Noble Steve and have you thought about a boost controller so you can have it set for everyday driving, then if you fancy a bit more fun you can turn it up a little? Big Grin

Yep, Noble will be doing the mapping. I have thought about a boost controller and not having one at the moment. It's something I could always add in the future ? Big Grin

Steve would like you to do a bit of detailing on the engine bay while the car is up your way Bandit:tongue_smilie:

Lol @ Lexusboy

A quick update. The guy who is going to be making the turbo adapter is back from his holiday tomorrow and will hopefully get the adapter made up then.

Also, apparently the 1G-GTE internals don't look too bad at all now they've been cleaned up, so they should be good to go :biggrin:

Thats good to hear steve, the day is looming, i should imagine it'll be weird having put all the effort in to suddenly not have to think so much about it and all the bits!

I'm not looking forward to the next stage when I lose my car for a while though ! :crying:

It'll give me more space in my kitchen though ! :laugh:

Bad luck mate Blush

To everyone else - looks like ibby tried to buy the very same engine that I ended up getting, though for some reason the seller messed him around (think that might have been the actual owner of the car, whereas it was his brother that I dealt with).
