New exhaust


ATB

Hello I have a few questions I was hoping to get some help with. Car is a stock 2JZ-GTE TT.

 

1. I got a very good deal on a HKS Hi-Power silent catback and I was wondering if it is just to bolt it on and drive? I don't have to worry about higher turbo pressure when deleting one of the catalytic converters? (I actually read that on here and got a bit concerned...) If I do get more boost does the car adjust itself? I also don't have a boost gauge so it's no way for me to tell if there is any change.

 

2. It has been very hot here lately and I have been running with the AC on a lot, but when i turn it off the air that comes out off the vents gets very moist so I either have to use the AC 24/7 or have the windows down. I searched around and I came to the conclusion that the supra does not have a cabin filter so that can't be the issue... any ideas?

You may occasionally hit fuel cut with the first cat in place but it's not detremental. I would bin the 1st cat, get a FCD, boost controller and a 1.2 bar restrictor ring. Change the fuel pump and spark plugs too and you're BPU.

That was very informative, thank you! I am only looking to do the exhaust as I am not allowed to change anything in the engine bay (Could lose my licence plates if i do). Could I use the whole exhaust shown in the picture or should I only do the catback? This is a US spec car with the steel turbos. I am new to turbo cars and I just wan't to make 100% sure I don't do anything that will ruin the engine in the long run.
