I need to know the distance between the VC (front of engine) to the back of the radiator on a TC.
I need to figure out is 'my' car has enough clearance for a TC turrbokit to be fitted. The measurement will help me compare the room you have available and what i have available.

Thanks in advance

i dont know the measurement but there at like 3-4 turbokits out already so i really dont think youll have a problem

sorry, i didnt make myself clear enough. My car isnt a TC, but shares the same engine. As the kit is designed for the TC, i wanna know how much room it takes up so i can compare it to my engine bay. Everything else in the kit looks like an exact fit.

There gotta be someone out today washing their cash or something, have a quick look, use a tape measure, i need to know please.

im not watching this topic but am gonna add my 2 cents .... you need to PM someone from zpi racing or draxas or whoever you want ...that way you can get details they prob off the top of their head

KevShek

yes and no........... the charger will most likely fit and run, but you wont be able to close your hood! LOL the kit was designed to place the SC high up over the ex manifold where i have space, but on a TC, it would foul the hood.

KevShek

Its not as complicated as some may be thinking............ all it need is someone with a ruler or tape measure.
If the TC has say 11 inches between the VC and RAD, and mine has 11 inches or more between the VC and RAD....................... then its gonna fit!

Brilliant! A round of applause for that man, if you werent so far away, i would kiss ya!

So by my reckoning, there is enough room. From youre tape, 3" to 14" is the measurement i needed, that leaves 11 inches of room, just like i have on my Previa.

yea it touches the VC at about 14.5", my g/f couldnt stay still.

KevShek

I wish they did make a Roots type blower for the tC, I love the whine.

KevShek

it does sound really nice, its characteristics also give the engine an instant kick. Im feeling the force but i wanna upgrade to a turbo so im selling my SC now i know for sure the TC kit will fit.

WOW! Very nice job with your project man! Gotta LOVE everything Blitz out there, especially their superchargers
