Hey all, this is my 1990 Toyota Celica SX, its a supercharged-turbo (YES it has both chargers!)... and believe me i had ALOT of problems.
To fix problems i ran the supercharger and turbo independently, with both forcing air into a common pipe, which leads to the intercooler and then back into the inlet manifold. To stop the supercharger simply blowing air back into the turbo, a valve blocks off the turbo outlet until it is making more boost than the supercharger.
The valve then opens so the higher-boosting turbo can take over. Ordinarily, having a turbo blow into a blocked chamber could cause some problems. However, as the valve is actually based on a throttle body, when the turbo starts making any boost, the valve will allow some bleeding, which reduces the stress on the impeller blades.
That was just some advice for anyone willing to try both chargers.
The rims in the picture are 19x9's! which made me extend the guards, normally i would ride around on 17x8 BBS RC Wheels.
Seeing as though i've done what i can with the engine, my next plans is for a exterior... i have computer-generated the following pictures of the kit that i might get made. I'd like to hear any feedback you have about this kit.
One without a wing and one with a wing.
