Default toyota 3sgte overhead mount turbo

Manifold i made for a friend. he wanted it up there to try and keep temperature down in the engine bay and the back of the car 'cause the intercooler is there.

it's all 316L accept for the flanges wich are mls.

he is making a new engine lid. so the turbo will stay under that one but it would stick out if he didn't make a new lid. the new one will follow the cars profile, so the rear window view is lost. he's already made one lid for it but desided to make another one, but i'll se if i can get some pictures with the first one.

it's a precission gt35r turbo.

interesting setup. I've got an MR2 and decided to go with an oversized A2W intercooler setup since I didn't want to hack a big hole in my trunk for a trunk mount. Very interesting choice on intercooler position.

I take it you're going to have to make a custom engine lid? There's no way that turbo is going to fit under the factory engine lid will it? Nice pics. I'm going to be doing some major surgery to the deuce over the winter.

Anyhow, very nice setup!

PS - what engine management system do you haver/ going with? I assume Nemesis or AEM EMS. I've got the AEM and really like the software interface.

Thanks, not all my design i just made the turbomanifold and adapted the ic for the place it's mounted. I'll be making the intakemanifold inbetween some other stuff this winter. Just started on the ic piping from turbo to ic today, will finish it tomorrow.
