Rampys Rebuild thread.

Well as most of you know i have a 1989 Toyota Celica GT4. shit hot car, too bad she wasnt cared for. now no pics of her as of yet (unless you want the fleebay picks from when i bought her non-running) after a short fixup up she was running then i kinda blew a few piston rings up :rolleyesedit: (go me) now shes running again, but seems like i have seriously fucked things up. the turbo is now on its last legs (lots of play and smokeing more than me) so as a starting point, i took her off to the dyno today. shes running like shit, and haveing major fueling and boost issues (ohh yay, the fucking joys this is gonna be) yet still managed a healthy 185.2 AWHP which is stock flywheel HP on this particular car.

So this is now the offical start of project bex. keep an eye out this is going to be one hell of a project. and my first true FI one(instead of giveing it to a company to fix) stay tuned folks, this is bound to get very fucking messy. (the last pic is from a cooling system overhaul that went very wrong, very fast. I have that magic bolt snaping touch )
