Ok iv been looking at new turbo's seeing as how mine is completely shot. The most appealing kit so far has deffinately been this one.
http://www.horsepowerfreaks.com/pric...bos/Turbo_Kits im looking @ Toyota Supra 86-92 Stage 5, TO4E 57 (525hp) with lines #13647 for $1500 Looks like a decent buy. Does anyone know if these LIPP kits are any reputable? |

T04Es are great turbos. Lipp makes very good quality products. But even the best turbo will go bad pretty much right away without the right preparation. What mods do you have to support the 525hp?

are you looking to upgrade or you just need to get it moving again? rebuilding the ct26 and having it upgraded is also an option

Im not gonna be running it at 525hp. Im only gonna be running 12-14psi. But i have a map-ecu that id like to dyno tune with 550cc injectors, with that ill run more boost. That right there should throw me in the mid 400's. Right now im dyno'ed @ 330rwhp. Only major mods would be n/a cams, full 3" dp back, no cat, no resonator (apexi N1). The turbo i "had" was a 50 trim ct-26 but that blew recently. Engine was rebuilt 30k miles ago, tranny was rebuilt at that same time, clutch aswell. Slotted rotors backed by mkiv TT rims (245/45/17 front, 285/40/17 rear). Head was also torqued to 75-80ftlbs at point of rebuild. I love this car with a passion... oh yea its also targa. Oh yea i also have full hardpipes with the upper hard pipe relocation, and a catch can. Its a decent set up.

it depends on what the turbo you get, what flange it has. if its different then the ct26 then you will have to find an adaptor or a new dp. if you get a new dp make sure it will accept the stock o2 sensor or you will have to have one put in
