Fantastic! I hope the rest of the button-up and shakedown process goes smoothly.

Congrats on the swap!

Has no more Celicas
Congratulations! Must be a fantastic feeling, you've built a great Celica in the short time you've had it.

line up? or reach?

mine barely makes it, definitely needed a helper.
it seems like its at the wrong angle.... but you say it will reach?

are you using ST power steering lines ? The high pressure line doesn't reach IIRC.
You need all GT stuff or just use what you can from the 205.

ST lines fit, the reaon why it seems as it doesn't reach is because the GT lines go mount on a different angle, look at the bolt on top of the pump, it holds the connection with the high pressure hose, if you loose the big bolt on top, you can adjust the angle to whereever you needed to be in order to reach.

I used my ST lines when I did my swap, no issues.

hey so how did you make out today?

Keep having these small issues.... Right now it's the boost controller, underboost wen I go WOT I boost, and then the boost flutters, almost like the solenoid is not opening fast enough I assume? But would really like to get this figures out, does it on all settings, high boost, low boost. But when I turn the truboost off the car hits 8psi without issue, so help anyone?

you need to adjust the gain ( known as spring pressure on the AEM tru boost manual ) this will make your car boost very slow or can cause boost spike if set too low or too high.

AEM recommnds a spring pressure of 5 to start, and adjust from there, so be conservative and monitor closely your boost gauge. slowly increase it until your boost controller reacts properly to your turbo speed.

Great progress so far. I need to get motivated and get started on my car
Nice celi.

Holy hell I haven't been on here in a minute, that being said I still own the car, not much has changed the last few years with the exception of some general msintainance and a new clutch and flywheel setup. Still runs like a top and should be getting some more much needed love come spring, I let the car sit for 3 years and it's taken its toll. Updates to come. Cant believe I've owned this thing going on 10 years now
