Clownmeat's build thread

IMAG0016-1.jpg~original

Just my $.02, but while you're fabbing that up, maybe run the snorkel piping internally? Maybe the piping up through the trunk, than have the head up with your rack? I think it'd look a bit cleaner that way. However, very impressive build you've got going on here. I like how you were using an arduino for some of that... I just began learning the basics of an arduino a couple weeks ago. They seem pretty versatile. Anyway, good luck with the rest of your endeavors!
 
Please Please Please Please Please Please Do a write up of your Turbo install. This looks like soo much fun and i'm ambitious enough to do it. I loved watching everything come togather a little at a time but I have to see the whole picture in a step by step format in order to understand somethings. I ran a turbo setup on my 240sx so i'm not foreign to them, I just also had a lot of help. Excellent work and please keep it up. soo excited to look more into this.

He and I both have a wire up on our rear mount turbo's
 
What really? I read both of your build threads, you guys did a write up apart from your build thread?? I've been searching for it. If so this MUST be added to the sticky on tutorials!

I have a thread called rear mount turbo. But I guess clownmeat's it's just in his build thread. Lol. But it is pretty detailed in his thread. Well I guess this thread. Lol.
 
Okay awesome! I really appreciate everything both you guys have been bringing to the forum. You guys have inspired me to get this thing done this year and looks like it's drawing some serious interest as well! Did you guys ever decide if you had enough interest to start fabing these exhaust pipes for a profit? I'd be willing to place an order for sure!! Got a few local boost shops but they are pretty crazy expensive.

I've had a few people interested but never a had anyone pull the trigger on it.;)

Okay well i'm putting a parts list together and when it comes time for the exhaust, I would like to contact you about fabing one if it's worth your time and effort. If anything I would like to get the dimension of it so I could have it made locally if nothing else.

No prob. Sounds good
 
How did I not find this! Holy MOTHER OF GOD! You Sir are amazing. What engineering school did you go to?

very nice setup. i will be doing this when i get a 4runner, hopefully soon!

one question, how loud is it? i was wondering what the consensus is about adding a muffler after the turbo? what are your thoughts? i searched around and havent found much on the subject.

If you don't want your runner to be loud then don't turbo it. Lol. You can probably hear our runners a mile away. :) especially when the waste gate opens.
 
oh no, it will get turbo'd, no question on that. it just seems like the sts tacoma is much quieter than your guys setups, just wondering why that is? is there any way to quite down the wastegate as well?

now by all means, i really appreciate all the info you guys have posted up here, you have me all pumped about adding the turbo for sub $1000. depending on how quickly i can learn to weld w/ my new miller 211, i might even contact you about a pipe for $150 like you posted.
