Hemi Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 those motors can handle pretrty much unlimited boost . most i personally have seen is 42 psi . seedys workmate/ bosses runs 28-32 . i heart toyotas and nissans incredibly overbuilt large passenger diesel engines Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

karmagedon Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 Did you modify an NA exhaust like that? Or was that a churbo header to begin with? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kpr Posted May 14, 2010 Author Share Posted May 14, 2010 still aint no race car, but goes way better with the turbo on it. more power everywhere and likes to rev more. yeh thats the stock n/a cast manifold. just unbolted the stock 2-1 section and made that J pipe. worked out well with the twin scroll turbo. almost finished building the exhaust - 3" drop pipe, then the rest of the system is 2.5" straight thru, no mufflers. sounds mean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xsspeed Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 Mrs' old man has a 4.2 n/a diseasil lwb Patrol, I used to use it as my tow vehicle before I got a towbar on the coon. Is that the same motor as in your swb? Would love to do something like this to it, epic highwayman/dont think the lwb would be anygood offroad.

Unclejake Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 LWB Patrols are OK offroad. Live axle FTW KPR - come turbo my TB48 if you want Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Testament Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 theyre ok, just HUUGE. dont fit into some places. although occasionally LWB is better over some obstacles. my flatmate did something similar on his 1HZ cruiser before putting in an LS2. it was better although ultimately still pretty slow. then it drank some water and was never quite the same.......hence the v8 conversion.

kpr Posted May 16, 2010 Author Share Posted May 16, 2010 old man got me some horrible press bends to go over the diff. so to keep the flow up, decided split it into 2x 2.5" pipes half way down the truck.exits here: finished airbox, has a dirty old k&n in it. seems to go bit better now its not sucking hot air.

Stu Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 I remember that black flex pipe you run into the airbox. Serves me right for leaving (dumping) shit at your place Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuel Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 any plans to make it intercooled? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kpr Posted May 21, 2010 Author Share Posted May 21, 2010 no plans to intercool. it gets used more offroad than on. so keeping it simple, over gaining the last bit of power. speaking of keeping it simple, i threw away the wastegate actuator today and tapped a bolt into the housing, to hold the wastegate shut. 10psi by 2500rpm and peaks at 15psi. I remember that black flex pipe you run into the airbox. Serves me right for leaving (dumping) shit at your place haha, that bit of pipe has had many uses. you did get that sweet bit of stainless and a crappy airfilter in return tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kpr Posted May 24, 2010 Author Share Posted May 24, 2010 took it to ezy10's dyno day yesterday 98kw at wheels, bit better than than the factory claimed 80kw at the engine http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v178/ ...

kpr Posted May 25, 2010 Author Share Posted May 25, 2010 mean, i'd build something sweet like that, if it was my own truck. back to rusty old toyota's for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
