Has anyone ever considered a C2GAS turbo kit? Shipping and handling is no problem for this team, they're more efficient at shipping and all that order crap than SF I heard. I had a convo with C2GAS representatives and they sure had a lot to say. Plus, at ECelica there are a couple happy customers. One even is getting sponsored by C2 to make a 2ZZ turbo.
Anyhow, heard nothing but good about this kit. Here's what C2 had to say to me:
Thanks for your request!
The price is 3200$ for the stage1 kit, we can usually ship your kit whitin 2
weeks.
We can receive payment by paypal (please add +4% paypal fee), and wire
transfer.
It is a complete bolt on kit, there is everything you need to get going.
You can expect about 50% gains on the GT, so on ~0.4bar (6-7psi) boost we
tipically measure about 210hp and 200lbs on the flywheel. The turbo is
selected and sized to promote good mid range response and provide maximum
airflow throughout the whole RPM band. There is really minimal lag, you can
boost from well under 3000rpm.
That is whit stock exhaust and induction.
In the kit you get:
-kkk K04 turbocharger
-greddy e-manage whit injector harness. we also provide the injector map to
get going.
-Flexi oil line to turbo and out
-Water lines to turbo and out
-Oil line flange
-Medium sized front mount IC (very nice stuff!)
-Polished Stainless steel piping and tubular manifold (beautifull to look
at, visit the gallery section for pics!)
-Hoses
-injectors
It is really as complete as it can get.
You can upgrade your exhaust and intake for further gains.
Additional gauges are also great idea to monitor your engines operation.
You can still use the oroginal toyota oil filter, oem plugs (1 heat range
colder recommended) and fully syntethic oil (tipically 1 heat range higher),
shorter oil change peroids are recommended, but it is all down to how hard
you use your car. Wear on the clutch will be more significant.
The tranny seams to be the weak point of these cars, but so far we had no
issues on stage1 costumers trannys.
Later you have the option to upgrade to stage2, that is well over 250hp
(actually we coud not measure it on local dynojet, the dyno maxed out whit
our car at 250hp at the wheels),pretty serius stuff.
Our website is under development, there will be a lot of new stuff for
celica in the close future.
- lambo door conversion,
- fully build gearbox incl. LSD to take some serius beating of high powered
celica GT and GTS
Notice that we ship our stuff from Budapest, Hungary, and let me know if you
are intrested in any of the above for combined shipping.
It is a large and heave box, the only option we have for such a pack is EMS.
EMS is quick and relaible, the cost is 375USD, we will cover 100USD from
this becouse it is on the expensive side, and we woud like to see our
costumers happy
