November 19, 201312 yr Author comment_672147 brought a propper camera to the garage today :) made a little instrument panel... going to add more lots of space for more :) thinking of placing it here... Then I'm thinking of moving the battery to the trunk and then laying a cable through the car with a main switch in the instrument panel. both for safety rasons and in case of anything using power when its not suposted to :) what do you think?

November 25, 201312 yr comment_672474 There is a toyota site called 3tcgarage.com. They turbo the 2 and 3t engines. They are pros when it comes to turboing old motors with carbs or efi. The site has just been redone, but I have had good luck with people being helpful. Report
