Over the last year I have been rebuilding my engine. At this point my modifications include cylinders board to 87mm, Wescio pistons, ACL race bearings, ARP (head studs, main bolts, and rod bolts), Apexi 1.5mm head gasket, and Head ported and polished with a valve job.
Now that I am getting close to finishing my engine I realized my stock turbo was shot. That being said, I am currently looking into upgrades. I am somewhat on a budget so I was thinking of getting the ct26 upgraded to a larger compressor wheel maybe (50 or 54). But that makes me question the current state of my fuel system and whether or not it could withstand relatively low boost pressures (10-12psi) from one of these turbos.
I have done extensive post searching to see what others have done and I have come to the conclusion that 1) I don't want to use the SAFC 2) I don't have the cash for a standalone unit. I have read that some people plan to use larger injectors say 650 and a larger fuel pump, but I don't see anyone post that they have had success with a system similar to this.
also does the single entry turbo from the supra mk viii fit on the st185 exhaust manifold? I've read you have to rotate the housing, but i just want to confirm this. i have also read that it doesn't fit so any response would help.
If anyone has advice on what i should do with this current set up it would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Eric
