I want to see how the AEM EMS is going to perform. I've heard a lot of good things about it. Good luck with everything.

Quick update for you guys: The intercooler is ordered and should be here in a week or less. The AEM boxes are on shortage and won't be available for shipping for about a week or two. Toyomoto is tuning the AEM with 780cc injectors so I'm checking with ZPI to make sure they can tune it with some smaller ones.

Nice im interested in both the i/c and intake, I def want that intake to come into production as long as it makes some hp

Very cool man, keep us updated please

Do you have any plans on how the piping and all will run for the intercooler? Or are you leaving it up to ZPI to do as they see good?

How much is the intercooler with piping and all? (aprox)

kytc

Piping should, I'm not certain but I think from measuring that ZPI should be able to fit the pipe in right where the stock is once they clock the s/c housing just a bit. If they get in there and that won't work then I'll let them just do what works. Whatever they do it will be substantial less piping then the FMIC, probably a 1/4 of the piping if not less. I got the intercooler for about $1050 shipped from tweakit performance in Australia and ZPI quoted me 3 hrs or less at $95 per hour plus $150 for them to get the pipe and weld it to the intercooler barrel. So if you say 3 hrs it ends up being around $1450-2000.

wow, i really hope it works out for you but thats a little on the high side. I was thinking about the air-water setup but you cant hate on how the front mount looks, hehe, plus it was no big deal just to have another pulley made to make up for the length of intercooler piping. Either way it should be nice when its done, i guess the race to 250whp is on huh? hehe

ready

set

go!!!

Are you going to do anything to the internals?

kytc

Not yet. I should be well over 250 once the intake, intercooler, and ems gets on there.

IMO the water to air is vastly superior to a FMIC. I'll get the same boost without a new pulley, I personally like the sleeper look, I'll get cooling even while sitting still, and the guy over at Rippmods which knows a LOT about the vortech units highly advises against FMIC - https://www.scionlife.com/forums/vie...512&highlight=

good luck and don't forget to post some dyno results.

Yea, I still think the Boost cooler would help you get to 250hp a lot cheaper.

But Im interested in how your setup turns out. Just wish it didnt cost so much.

kytc

Oh I agree with the cost, it is expensive. I think the boost cooler is an excellent option and I'd like to see somebody try it. I personally just liked the idea of this intercooler and wanted to try it. The intercooler itself really wasn't too expensive, like $700 but shipping was like $250 from Australia. If you knew somebody that could get a pipe for it and weld it it would be about $430. I went with this one because Sciondad had great success with it and it seemed to be a much better option on the s/c. I'm excited to try it first on the s/c and be the guinea pig for my fellow scionlifers, lol.

watching this. good luck!

Another update: I picked up something else I'm going to have put on - a NST 12lb pulley. I'm also waiting on Toyomoto to get back with me on getting injectors from them and then the AEM will be ordered

Tha_Dude_79

what is the size injectors you going with?

kytc

I gotta go with 780cc from Toyomoto cause that's what the AEM map is for. I'm working out getting those and getting the rest of the fuel system straightened out and then I'm ordering

Nick06tC

Can the stock fuel pump flow that much fuel efficently at WOT?
