I still can't identify the pipework that came with the CT34R. I've checked the TA64 Group B Celica, Celica GTO and the Toyota 87C and its none of those.....complete mystery :?

Could the pipe work have been test bed only? Common practice to have custom pipework for the dyno :)

Interesting thought. A lot of the TTE gear which was sold off a few years ago was test bed surplus.

My IHI RX6d turbochargers were ex-MIRA test bed items, most of the parts used in motorsport live and die on the dyno. We only get to see a fraction of the bits fly round the track or bounce down a gravel road :D
