But seriously - I'm stoked with the work they've done. Their attention to detail is astounding, and I think they are the best fabricators I've seen. Was meant to be started before Autosalon, but the key will be turned any minute now |

Adam, this is yours, OMG! I feel in love with this car seeing the recent pics of it.
So hasn't got any power figures yet? |

No power figures yet, the guys at Hypertune (you guys are absolute legends!) are still sorting the last couple of bits of the wiring to turn it over, and need to get it revving first. The guys should have it running within the next day or two. I'll post power figs as soon as it hits the dyno. Not going for power at this point - going to run the lowest boost possible first and see how the motor feels |

OMG, Its a V8 too. Thats super impressive I thought it was a TT at first glance with some fancy covers!.
Man thats a huge turbo... Gosh - what specs is it Adam?
How much did the entire set up approximately cost just out of interest?
All I can say is that's outstanding...

That'd be the T88 GK. The V8 needed a bit more top end

IT'S RUNNING! 
Thanks guys... 2 years un-cranked, and now she's purring like a kitten. Only just idling at the moment (with a couple of little blips thrown in for good measure). It's much quieter than expected for a 4 inch dump into dual 3 inch pipes, but that's ok - I think all hell may break loose when she comes on gate though. Will be on the dyno next week. Hoping for 300 rwkw on very low boost at this early stage. I will keep you posted |

I saw this thing being built at hypertune as they done my new intercooler, the amount of custom work that has gone into this thing is absolutely amazing. Well done Adam  |

I'm predicting:
0-100___________ 7 seconds
100-200_________ 1.3 seconds and change of underpants.
What have you done to the trans to hold the power? |

Massive turbo lag, combined with the low power of a 1UZ (without boost) most likely Callum  |

Four litres will spool it up quite well I imagine. The Supras use the T88 and they are only three litres. Wheelspin will be the only challenge! |

Holy Mother of God! Thumbs up to Hypertune. Really looks the business Adam. Curious also with the Box.
I'd guess Manual. Lucky Christmas is comming mate.
(should get lots of jocks hey!)..
Are you going to race her or just the drags, either way sounds like she's gonna be a barrel of fun!
Good Luck! |

Here is a list of parts on the car.
start with the fuel side of things.
1x Walbro 255 intake
2x 044 external pumps feeding of a 5l surge tank.
runs down and merges into a -8 fuel line which runs the length of the car, it then splits into twin -6 lines which feed the custom fuel rails.
After the fuel rails it each fuel rail then connects the both sides of a Turbosmart fpr1200 fuel reg.
after that it runs down a new -6 return back to the surge tank.
There are also new -6 lines which run to and from the surge tank to the factory fuel tank.
Turbo set-up.
The car uses steam pipe manifolds which join up to 2" mandrel bent secondries. Those pipe lead into the T4 frange(one two inch pipe each side)
The Turbo is a Trust T88-38GK with the 17cm rear housing.
Also hanging of the ,manifold is a 60mm wastegate.
After the exhaust there is a 4" stainless lobster back front pipe which travels past the motor.after the motor it then splits into dual 3" stainless all the way to the straight through mufflers with 5" tips.
Intercooler and other cooling systems.
The the air exits the turbo then splits into dual 3" aluminium piping comes around the front of the car then travels up through the tube and fin intercooler (720x280x73).Ithen splits at the top of the cooler and stays twin 3" and passes through 2x Hypertune 77mm TB's into twin custom plenums.
The radiator, power steering and engine cooler were all custom. There are 2x 12" thermos cooling the radiator, which has a bleeder tank also added.
Computer is a Haltech E11v2 with there idle,boost and map sensors uses also.
honda S2000 coil on plugs were used.
Hope this may answer some of the questions out there.

Uploaded a little vid from yesterday. Just a little rev to hear the turbo start to spool. Yes that is the rev limiter - but set at 4000rpm
