[Leroy]

Hardcore!!

Yours and MAP81's were the two cars I wanted to model mine on when I first joined this place...

...but I went soft, with both attitude and bank balance :P

Nice to see you back.

[DuGong]

NICE! does the water injection work well?

wat power are u making?

[Pippy]

I haven't done a dyno one since that dyno day (refer video) so i'd say i'm making that much power.

I've done about 10,000kms now... still going strong.

crap load of torque, redline 7000. Goes ok, not really aiming to be a dyno queen. :)

[CHA54]

I'd guestimate it's ~120 at the wheels now after the addition of the oil cooler and some extra street tuning I've done on the engine since then. The tune is ULTRA conservative, it picked up 4kw atw with 2deg extra timing in the top end with no VVT tweaking. I'll get another run done on it before the next round of mods.

The Torque the SC setup makes is really the best thing about the TRD charger, it's a hell of a lot of fun as a daily driver with power from anywhere in the rev range.

Good work Jase... I'm imagining driving a Corolla with a Camry V6 in it, sort of like that?

[SuperDave]

So when is it coming to the track? Gotta see if it'll beat a Sportivo :P
