Turbo Kit for 87 Supra

19supra865 · 07-17-2007, 12:55 AM

i am doing this same swap. except i alredy bought the turbo pistons new clips pins and rings. from what ive heard mechanically the only difference between the 7mgte and 7mge is pistons and oil squirters. my problem is the oil squirters. are they like removable or can they be drilled out? other stuff im not worried about i can figure a way around it. megasquirt or just full harness ecu and igniter swap. i would like to keep my distributor so ill probably have to get like a msd ignition or something. if anyone can help me with this id be very apreciative.

Thank You
John

There are more differences, such as no oil supply or return. As for the squirters, adding them would require more machining than is worth the expense and effort.

i dont see much use on oil squirters to be honest so im not much worried about em. my turbo lebaron doesnt have em and its fine. the oil return i have covered ill weld a tube into the top of oil pan. where is the supply line run from on the turbo cars for oil and coolant along with the return for coolant. anyone have pics of those things?
