Damn, never thought I'd want a Corolla ...

pdxhak 03-11-2009 05:36 PM

Anyone know which turbo kit this is?

Ross_Dawg 03-11-2009 06:49 PM

Looks like the SFR...

pdxhak 03-11-2009 07:11 PM

Not sure but the car is in Japan. I'm not familiar with anyone in Japan making a top mount either.

SiLVeRE8 03-11-2009 08:26 PM

maybe he imported the SFR kit from US

Ahahaha Japanese importing turbos from the US... that'll be the day... :rollingla

SiLVeRE8 03-11-2009 08:40 PM

^ lol the SFR kit is pretty sexy though... If i live in japan and have money i would import this kit!

pdxhak 03-11-2009 09:22 PM

Here are the two kits. They look similar but they are different.

Mystery kit

Ross_Dawg 03-11-2009 09:28 PM

It's the same... diff. turbo

edit: damn, there are some subtle differences...

pdxhak 03-11-2009 09:31 PM

Yep. Tubing is quite different the more you look at it. Look at the pipe wrapped with header tape underneath the turbo and the pipe coming out of the throttle body.

SiLVeRE8 03-11-2009 09:41 PM

how about the PTP kit... since both of them look similar

pdxhak 03-11-2009 10:01 PM

Here are two pics of the PTP. Still different. I wonder why they changed the MAF location?

Which makes me realize I do not see the MAF on Japanese car. I wonder if it is hidden or MAP tuned.

Older pic from car and driver of the PTP pic. The only close up pic I could find.

SiLVeRE8 03-11-2009 11:40 PM

ok... i give up! it must be a jdm kit then

canaryrx8 03-14-2009 09:03 AM

Could just be a custom job? I like how they relocated the battery, I've been pondering adding a 2nd one to my car for the stereo side of things and looking at how different things might look/work, I wonder what kind of power that car is putting out, looks like a nightmare to route all that tubing.

nuke0907 03-14-2009 09:18 AM

might just be either the PTP or SFR manifold with a custom turbo and piping setup.
