    The first what the heck loks like HKS blow off valve, relieves boost pressure on gear changes and makes that lovely pssshp sound :D

    2nd is adjustable fuel pressure regulator with gauge.

    But a great find, fun for sho.

    Looks like great stuff...seems like the supercharger was removed and a turbine was put in place.

    But it may take some quite a bit of $$$ to put everything proper in place. IT will be damn blardy fun for sure!!! This is a killa!! :)

    Enjoy! :)

    Nemesis.. thanks.. yeah man, that pssshhh is heavenly :D Fun, it definitely is.. :)

    AL.. yeah yeah! I think the mech said something about the atuanator/atuator/alternator (something like that) not being there anymore.. so apparently no supercharger but straight turbo charged. Hmm.. :eek:

    I kinda want a weekend project now :( I wanted a 1st gen Miata to do up for auto-x for a long time but got distracted after I got my E90, but you've reminded me all over again :p

    Thanks for the tip...but this self-proclaimed DIY adverse individual doesn't trust himself with heavy machinery and tools :rolleyes:

    Seriously, it'd be awesome to build a caterham kit car, but it won't be cheap. I can get a 1991-1993 Miata sub $8k here and I reckon with $5k or less, I can make an enjoyable lightweight weekend auto-x car. A caterham kit car would end up costing mid-30's. Might as well get a used E36 M3 for that money.

    FINALLY! After 5 days of trying to log in to Photobucket!

    Anyway, the project car's almost ready for some action. All there's left to do is to get a drive shaft and to shower it with good paint.

    Go to AH (Ah Heng) Exhaust at USJ. Near Texchem industrial area. Should be a quick job, provided he is free. What turbine is that?? Is it a TD04L?

    Contact taken.. thank you..

    Anyways, some latest updates :)
    RSImpressive - Turbo Lim Dyno Chart..
    Toyota Corolla 1.6 4AGE / Bolt on TD04L Turbo

    Max Power
    - 265BHP

    Max Torque
    (at 5000RPM)
    - 303Nm

    According to him, IF I spend another RM4k to tune up and some servicing the turbo.. it'll easily go way pass 300 ponies :eek: Something I'm not ready to do until the entire suspension, drive shaft, lower arm and brake system has been improved :rolleyes: By the way, its got an LSD gearbox :D

    Bro, 265hp is about the maximum for a TD04L. Anything more, the turbine will be stressed at the higher end of the spectrum. IN fact I swapped out my TD04L to a TD04HL. Anyway for a FWD, 265 is more than enough :) Enjoy!
