like the parts for the complete turbo project?

BANNED. for life, you moron.
get atf cooler for sure. use good grade of atf oil. max boost 0.8bar. done.
take a look @ my thread for the 4afte. same stuff can be transfered over to the 7afte while (probably) creating decent power.

the 1/4 doesnt have patience for a ST.... so we make them ST-T's so atleast we'll sound good going slow.
c'mon guys lol im talking about specifics.. which turbo to use for her setup, ect. i know how to boost her car im just looking for recomendation on brands and **** to use, though the ATF cooler was a good idea i didnt even think of that.

Unless she is willing to be under the hood helping you fix it or tweak the setup on a regular basis, don't do it. All the famed Toyota reliability goes out the window after you put a turbo on the motor. Even if the motor doesn't blow (which it won't if you design the turbo kit right), you will still be constantly working on the car.

look at my prfile , if your wife likes what she sees i can go more indepth on what works well for me. also i will agree with nik. just use good name brand stuff and you should not have a problem.
It's never ending maintenance. Trust me, i've been boosted for a couple of years now, and i'm still swapping broken parts and tinkering.
