yeah seems to be the case, then you look at james (totenkopf) and anthony (51CMR), and hayley (70Ymr) and the money they have spent, it begs to differ, why its so hard to get the power from the 2L Toyota motor, when its rather easy to do with the nissan sr20??

put a little ATA cooler in not so good airflow place on your sr20 powered nissan and you'll prob notice it's hard to get power as well.

really interested to see how you mount the intercooler and the heat exchanger. I mean brackets etc, not just the location :)

not really... the project has pretty much come to a stand still for a few months, i just dont have time atm, as we are trying to plan for a wedding in september, and im going away with work quite often, so the HE and pump are both installed, but i have to pull the engine out when i get around to fixing things up, then once its back in i will sort something out with the cooler...
Did you end up getting a kit yet?

Man thats the same ghey heat exchanger I've got. Its not a true duel pass. James n I took one if the inlets and moved it to the other side making it a x flow. Was the only way to make it work. In saying all that it is a nice thick freaker.

Epic BUMP for an epic build mate. I reckon your gonna be the fastest SW20 if not MR2 in SOUTH AUSTRALIA!! this'll make mine look slow haha, damn I could fit my fist in your turbo and you should reach your power goals with a decent E85 tune mate for sure! Keep up the good work.
