my new 1/4 mile time

djalkyd · 05-20-2006, 05:11 AM

it was a stock turbo set at 12psi and then a 75 shot of nitrous which help boost to 15psi and help with lag off the line.

to bad the car has been stolen now or i could have gotten it into the 12's

Ouch... that stinks.

I cant stop watching your video!! Great take off . i guess nitrous makes a bid diff for the lag and the weight. How do you like the cooleeze

cooleeze was ok, i think a little more thought into it and it would have been a great add on.

the silicone coulings they give are to short and where they connect to the stock innercooler they were to big around. i think they used 2 1/2 inch piping and couplings and the innercooler was 2 inch so it kind of bunched up. the clamps are crappy. the piping barely fit, i really had to work it to make it fit.

they welded all the turns instead of using mandrel bends.

there were to many parts to the kit which would lead to many weak points under high boost. the lower piping was 2 parts and it could have been a one piece pipe if they took a little more care in the development of it.

the upper piping was really nice with the heat treatment. this part of the piping actually fit very well but again the silicone couplings were a little on the short side.

the suction pipe they have doesn't fit very well either and it is also welded to heck and back. they also send 3 little extra rubber hoses to extend the length for the pcv hose and stock bypass valve. it is a very cheap fix and doesn't work very well at all.

i didn't use the 3 extra hose pieces, i actually bought longer hose that would flex and i went with the hks blow off valve so i didn't use the stock bypass valve.

all in all for the money i would go with someone else but if you get it real cheap then it's ok.

Damn, im kindof dissapointed to hear that about the cooleeze pipes. I was actually planning on purchasing them in the future since I have heard nothing but good things about cooleeze, but this makes me want to change my mind on the intercooler pipes.

Why no upgraded downpipe? Isn't that supposed to give you one of the biggest horsepower gains? Again im thinking about purchasing cooleeze's 3" downpipe..

i agree that is a bummer but thanks for the info. Ill look around a bit more. good luck on finding or buying another supra. damn thieves

i had the entire exhaust from them also, i will say that the exhaust was perfect. it fit better than factory and all you have to do is get a muffler for it. the down pipe is extremely easy to install and is actually easier to fit rather than the stock one.

so if you are looking for a great performing exhaust then go with them.

i am trying not to knock their innercooler kit, i am just giving my opinion from a professional point of view. for a step up from stock, it is a good kit. for anyone wanting to make serious power, stay away from it.
