James Voo: (Apr 2001)
Story starts with me being the proud owner an AW11 supercharged. I
have converted it to turbo. Running boost of around 18 to 19 psi. Needed
money and sold the car to a friend. He is even more eager to go faster
and have deeper pockets. I have always wanted to do the 3s conversion but
restricted by cash flow. We will know the quater mile time later this summer
and dyno horsepower. Our estamate is around 350 at the wheels at 1 bar
of boost. The owner wants 400 at the wheels. Car weight is at 2678 wet.
We didn't just have the engine transplanted. Its engine, transmission,
and suspension(front and rear). TRD limited slip, Turbo clutch, Electromotive
TEC II, JE Forge piston just to name a few.
For the people who lived around Greater Vancouver BC, this is where
the car was born. My 2 brothers have a shop in burnarby and it is called
ATEB. Phone number is (604)-438-7537. John and Philip is their name. They
can do anything you want and only restricted by imagination.
We took it out Friday nite for quater mile. The altitute up here is
3500 feet above sea level. The car did 4 pass on the drag strip and best
time was 13.88 at 105.36 MPH running at 18 psi of boost.
