Thanks Dan. The turbos are rebuilt by Munro Racing Turbochargers. They retain the stock core, so use all the stock lines. I bought them for $100, and think it was $1250 to have them rebuilt and highflowed.
There is a stock airbox for sale locally for $40. That is an option, but I am also considering building a custom airbox that uses a more common panel filter- something like a commodore or falcon. I need to look at what the pricing is like. I am happy to use the stock Toyota paper filter if I can get them cheap enough. I am just not convinced pod filters are any better than a clean panel filter. I am happy to give up the 6 or 7 kilowatts for a clean air supply and long reliable turbo/engine life.
