Hello just a few questions - I realise it's easy to cringe when you use the words soarer and ebay in the same sentence and I don't think I'd ever buy a turbo off ebay but I'm curious about these
Monsta Manifolds:
http://cgi.ebay.com.au/TOYOTA-1JZGTE-SUPRA-90-93-SOARER-91-98-TURBO-MANIFOLD_W0QQitemZ330093961586QQ ihZ014QQcategoryZ43808QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

Would they make any difference (or even fit) on a VVTi turbo? I did a search on them and came up with nada.

Also those Hybrid FMIC kits from Flying performance (Here: http://cgi.ebay.com.au/HYBRID-TURBO-GT-SPEC-INTERCOOLER-KIT-TOYOTA-SOARER-FMIC_W0QQitemZ110095793966 QQihZ001QQcategoryZ130642QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem)

It says they are for a TT but would the fittings by any chance fit on a VVTi Turbo?

I was also wondering what is the knack to gaining traction (other than letting pressure down). When making crisp starts I sometimes trigger my TRC which shuts down the excitement in a fairly major way. If I take it off the wheels will just spin. Grrr. Is it just trial and error to learn how much power to apply when taking off?

Thats all for now if I think of anything else I will post further.

Thanks in advance,
Byron

I am 99% sure that the manifolds for the 1JZ & VVTI variants are definitely different mate. They have different exhaust port designs.

As for your TRC issue, this may be as simple of pulling out a fuse or you could get a Power House Amuse TRC controller from Greenline

Gavin you are correct,the ex. ports are different spacings and the studs that hold the manifold to the head are different spacings too.

I have a different question that maybe someone can answer? My HKS Type 1 Turbo Timer RPM reading does not match the RPM reading on my soarer's dash Tacho? Can anyone tell me why this is and how I calibrate it properly?
