by the way i'm not crazy spending those money on my car.......

post some pics man!

you can use any kit made for the alltrac or mr2 turbo, its all the same motor, but you really should upgrade to a stand alone ecu and have the car tuned.

check out www.mr2oc.com you ll probably find a few people with that same kit on their car that can give you more info then anyone here can.

The most important issues for a turbo that big is going to be proper fuel upgrades and something to control them (i.e. EMS). The T78 will be VERY laggy and is best suited for a drag type application. I agree with Lagos that you should post your inquiry on mr2oc.com. Those folks are tuning freaks and some have used the T78.

alright thanks foe the help

i dont see how a t78 would be worth while. its not even streetable. Your better off with a greddy t25 kit or something. push the power to 400 and you will be happy. remember its FWD (though that has nothing to do with it) 800 hp is gonna run you close to 8-10gs to make it reliable.

I wouldnt recommend such a big turbo on the 3s, like JG said its going to be very laggy. Now ur fuel system isnt stock right?

nothing on the car is stock right now ..only just the block only ..other then that everything is being custom made..from ecu..to head.cam gear....everything..just about everything...

Am I the only one who wants to call BS?
This guy can barely type, I have a feeling he might very well be retarded based on his posts in the past.
How did he swap a 3s?

youre gunna have one mean a$$ machine man... >>

Ok well what pump are u using, injectors? What FMU?

Thats gonna lag like crazy. The t78 on the fensport gt4 doesnt spool up til 4500 rpm and then after that they used high lift cams to rev it to 8.3k.

Get an ats td06 instead. will allow you to make about 500 whp with supporting mods

soon my engine is finish

A T78 is even laggy on the 7M-GTE and 2JZ-GTE..You're going to have to prep your engine to rev higher so you have a useable RPM range, because that turbo is going to take a day to spool, hehe. Not worth it in my opinion...that's going to be too much power anyway to be streetable. But it's your car and money so I wish you the best luck in achieving that project. >>
