http://www.dasports.net/00celicagt-FTS.htm

if i only had $3600..

there is a better turbo with dynoes to back it up its the Stanfford fabrications turbo the GT kit costs 3500, GTS kit isn't available yet but is soon im getting this kit as soon as i get the cash heh

thanks..ill look it up..
100 dollars cheaper..yay! hehe

ahhhh

Wow! Thats a 100 hp increase for 3,600. (140 -240 hp) that could put some gts up to 300 hp with a couple extra mods. Thats pretty damn crazy.

sorry, wouldnt work out, stock GTS cant take that kind of boost

I dont believe this Kit has actually been dyno proven yet.

engine compression on GTS is too high...so true

Well...maybe you can't do it on a stock GTS just upgrade the internals and go from their.

It's not a matter of,"if" gains were made, it's just a matter of "how much."

yea the DA turbo has no dynoes, but the stanfford kit, was dynoed at 6psi or 5 i forgot which one at 200whp, and you can definatly up the boost little giving you more power

Just to let everyone know, the Stafford Fabrication Celica GT Turbo Kit is on a GB right now for $3300. We have actual dynoes done on the kit. At 6 psi we were able to produce 217WHP and 180WTQ. At 8 psi we were able to produce 234WHP and 199WTQ. These are proven data. That is more than 100 HP increase to the crank and wheels.

The turbo kit for the GTS will be available very soon. I have the prototype on my GTS and it is awesome. I have over 4000 miles on the kit now without any problems but traction and wheel hop.

What are you other mods? What kind of fuel enrichment? What kind of engine management? Does the kit have alcohol injection? Is alcohol injection an option you can buy? Will the kit produce gains in the 250 WHP neighborhood? Thanks in advance.

i wish i had more knowledge about these things so i dont sound like a complete dumbass...but, would those hp numbers produced be the same for a GT auto transmission...and how much would installation run estimated?

2zz with:
1. aem cai
2. trd intake
3. trial headers
4. grounding kit
5. new wirings
6. powerFC
7. light wheels
8. weight reduction
9. Carbon Fiber hood
10. good transmission
11. good compression
12. turbo

300 right there? i think so! if not swap the engine to 3sgte baby!
got any dyno pics of the gt turbo you talkin bout?

you wouldn't use an AEM intake and Trial headers with a turbo. Turbo manifolds take the place of the exhaust header. The turbo also has it's own intake which would be relocated as if you had your AEM intake in its normal position.

anybody know a good website to read up on compression?

this is very educational:

The hotchickstuner car has 300hp with just the pistons and rods changed and it can handle the power. There same info in the new super street mag, if you can find. Its a bad car

Is the Turbo for the 2003 Celica GTS out yet? Does anyone know when it's expected? Also, before I go turbo... I want to reinforce the engine so I can run a higher boost. Maybe 10psi... ???

I called DA about that turbo kit about 6 months ago. THey said they had problems with it, and dropped the project. I have no idea why they haven't taken down that site yet.

Stafford looks promising, if his website ever gets up and running.
