    Well, i made a new signig coz my old one dont work.
    anyway, the new nickname reflects the car i now own :D :D :D :D very happy.


    Ive got a technical question.
    The motor is the 1g-gte twin turbo. Im pretty sure the turbos are sequential, i want to increase boost. Which turbo do i "boost up"?
    Also, the hose to the wastegate control diaphragms are infact not hoses, but solid metal tubes, do i need to cut them to install a manual boost controller?? is there any other choice?

    I imagine your questions would be answered more accurately on a SoarerForum

    As for the turbo question, i imagine you would upgrade them at the same time, much like you would in a Z.

    i thought the soarer

    had synchronious turbos, while the supra got the sequential turbos.

    Here is supra 1jz motor - looks like its synchronous to me.

    Yet to find pic of 1G-GTE exhuast manifold, so not actually 100% sure. But from the sound, its like they are sequential.
