Celica Forums General Discussion Engine and Performance Turbo for Celica GT

I've got a 2001 celica GT with CAI and exhaust, i'm looking for some forced induction. Can somebody hook me up with some sites for turbo kits for the GT.

Trickman,
Let me answer you really quick before everybody starts yelling at you. Just a minute, I'll be right back.

Anyway, you only need one site...www.c2power.com anything else is a waste of your time. Do you trust me?

I agree - get the turbo from c2gas...

Custom!!!!! However C2 has helped me out a lot with my custom setup, if I where to start over I would have bought it from them, they know their stuff and will actualy answer your emails! but if you wanna fish around for hookups then custom is the way to go. Its looking like my set up will be about the same price installed as the bolt on kits before installation and that includes new exhaust, gauges, boost controller, turbo timer, fuel pump, and rising fuel pressure regulator. Most of which dont come with the bolt on kits.

Hey Aerowilson, how's that comming anyway?

c2 has the best customer service i have ever experienced period. no other store (automotive or otherwise) is as cool as them, and i'm talking ANY store ANYWHERE, selling ANYTHING.

well It would be installed if it wasent for Hass auto dragging ass with my manifold. They called me today (keep in mind I paid for the manifold almost a month ago) and asked for 30 bucks to overnite a DSM flange so they could finish the manifold by wed...because I got mad at them for telling me every week for 4 weeks strait that it would be done and shipped out on wed of which ever week I was calling them on...

So as soon as I get a tracking number from Hass, Im gonna take her in and start tearing everything down, work with the interecooler mounting and piping, fuel system and whatnot. So I can have some progress for when the manifold comes in.

So far my kit is as follows
14b with O2 housing
TRD Kazuma (enough for 7lbs)
FMIC 30X6
Walbro fuel pump
Aromotiv Rising fuel pressure regulator
Greddy type S BOV
Turbo XS boost controller
Greddy Turbo timer
Split second
Autometer Carbon Fiber Boost and A/F ratio gauges
custom downpipe (bypassing Cat so Ill have turbo back strait pipe)
Custom red intercooler piping.
custom return fuel system.

Gonna be a nice setup. Ofcourse I say that now. Im sure when I bring it in for the install which is suppose to be one week, it will turn into 3 weeks and it will never run the same! J/K Zen motorsports know whats up Im confident they will come through.

Please Use the SEARCH BUTTON! you will find though that C2gas is the only way to go

Sounds good Aerowislon182,
I just realized that the shop building mine has never mentioned a fuel pressure regulator. I'll have to ask them about that.
What size injectors are you going to use?
About your gauges, do you think an EGT gauge is a good idea also?

egt is a must for turbo unless you have a fulltime wideband o2 gauge in place.

Thanx guys for the nice feedbacks!!!!! I am very happy that you appritiate our work.
I ould like to let you know that we started a GB for turbo kits and helical LSD on the "other" forum. I am not sure I will pull it over here as I dont want to be mixed up. So anybody was thinking to get some of that stuff has better pricing now.

GTS as well????

YESSSSSSSS

I thought you guys were still just "Testing" it with the 5 selected peeps??? Runs to other site

Yes testing, but its not like if it works or not!! It is to make it as good as posiible, get some infos from costumer view. They have allredy compared to other kits as some of the "testers" had other kits before. So our kits seems to be better quality then others as the guys stated. We also got some info how can we still improve it, and we will.
I will ask them to wite some reviews here as well to let you know.

If you need another tester let me know Your kit would get a lot of Recognition as i am a NCCA Judge and go to 22 car Shows on the EAST Coast a year and my car is displayed at everyone (hint, Hint )

LOL test guys are all set, but the GB price is also nice.

^^^ I know

I am vey interrested in this kit, i will know as of this Saturday if i can or can not get this kit. Depends on Christmas Bonus.

So it would be like 3900 shipped then right Oh and keep up the good work

Yeah the FPR will ensure that there is always enough fuel getting to the engine, Im going to replace the 1ZZ injectors with 2ZZ ones, paired with the RFPR and the new fuel pump, I should be able to push about 10lbs safely. But ill keep it around 7 because im not doing any internal work.

As for the EGT, Im planning on getting one, just trying to figure out where to put it.

Here you go. Pick a spot.

Holly F..k that would be hard to have a look on something. Like a deep see scuba diver...

thanks guys

I saw that you had a question about forced induction for a Celica GT, Did you ever find one? I have a 2002 GT and have been lookn for months for one...

GT kits are doing well for a while now.

You haven't been looking very hard then.

any one has thought about Greddy T28 or T28 bb turbo?

hay..

just one quick question...

do you know the limit of the turbo boost you can give for a GT...i mean... before the intake manifold would blow into pieces ...????
