5/6mgte Link/Write Up Compilation

I think this is Sticky worthy.

In all my research for my own 5mgte project, I have bookmarked alot of links. Some still up and some have gone down. But I still have them. And thanks to a nifty tool posted in a different thread (THANKS TARA!!!!!!!!!!) I can get all the ones that went down, back. So because I am such a nice guy and like contributing to this community, plus I am getting really really sick of all the "how do I turbo my 5/6m" threads, this will be the bible for 5/6mgte'ers.

If you have a link to post that has valuable information and not 500 pages/posts of "use search" or "dont do it it will blow up" posts then post it. If it doesnt work PM IT TO ME and I will use my tool and see if I can get it to work.

I will constantly be adding to my list of links as I go through the forum finding threads/posts that are useful.

Here they are in no particular order

I tried to input most of the non working links into the "way back machine" to keep them working.
appears some of them will still pull up and some will not.

Here is a link to the "Way Back Machine" to possibly help with some old links.

At first I thought you didn't have an intercooler.....until I saw the last picture in the thread where the intercooler is routed.
The 5M turbo kit on ebay a few weeks ago has an air to water intercooler. Not sure what is easier or harder: Cutting/routing 2.5-3" piping to run an air to air intercooler or the radiator/water pump set up for a air to water intercooler.

Nice build, always loved those Cressidas, surprised I never got one.

You might need to upgrade some of your intercooler bits once you start revving that thing and playing with boost. Like the heater hose clamps and the stock plastic intake that feeds into the TB. I can see that stuff failing with a full 7+psi hitting it. If its a factory look you are going for, grab one of the 7mgte pipes that goes there.

@darrow - my thoughts aswell, with getting the intercooler for free i wasnt too fussed haha

Thanks SupraFiend, yeah ive had three now haha, the gold one still being my first.
At this point, up to 5krpms im only boosting 5psi, not sure if its due to the large airgap between my impeller and compressor housing or juat my intercooler setup but the other guy in nz who has a 5mgte in his hilux said he boosts the same?

Not sure if theres a fault or something else haha. No boost leaks might i add
