They show what they had to change and how they changed the rear turbo outlet, to allow the heater core hose to be cleared.

but they didnt use the twins......Ray halls conversion is good, but his aims were different, he has done some things that didnt need doing, e.g the gearbox mount....you can use the std mount
i didnt have the heater core hose problems becuse the twins didnt foul the oem hoses.
regarding progress the last few months, not much at all, i am rebuilding my other Lexus which is a drift car for next years D1UK,
bit of an update...the car is being converted as a Drift car for the Uk series
used to use a blue lexus for drift, but an over long winter re-build has left me chomping at the bit to get back in the seat...so.....this one had its first test the other day, still a Standard car in full trim....(less all the mechanical upgrades)
seemed to work well, so will start the conversion over the next few weeks
Love the ride and it sounds ominous but I was wondering what did you do for engine management. Did you use the supra ecu or a standalone or the Is with a piggyback. Also do you still have all the original functions such as ac odometer, key security. Any info would be greatly appreciated.
