those that have seen it in the past, i had 4AWG going through the car, but smaller stuff from the battery to the fuse. Not very safe. so a nice new battery connector and 4AWG wire:
Ignore the clips i was charging the battery as well

Also very pleased with myself.
Managed to fit my adjustable cam gears and set the timing up all by myself!
Had them sprayed up in blue to match the car.
these are rare already and i'd bet these are now the only ones in the world.
MMM Rare!!!

Marsdendean Looking good stav!
A quick question, could you still keep the twin turbo, but go bigger turbos & would that make it smother rather than having the boost all in one go?
could do, but it'd be the same, all the boost in one go.
and its more difficult to make all the pipework etc.
to have it sequential like the mkiv supra is a right pita cause you need fiddly air valves etc
Little write up on the evolution of my car - Sparkystav - 28-09-2017
Marsdendean So does your boost from 2 turbos all in one go, rather than using a smaller (or larger ) for boost then the other for top end?
correct their both the same size.
there used to be a useful post on the mkivsupra site on how the ones on them worked, but cant find it.
this may help though: http://mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=27904

Looking good there Stav, The more I read you topic the more and more I wish I had that engine. I need to do some more to mine I'm getting a bit fed up with it at the moment so need to do something to get the good vibes back again.
Might say to the boss if she wants a new house I need a new engine :laugh:
