Just wanted to know if anyone has installed a c2gas turbo kit on a right hand drive celica and experienced any damage to their power steering.

The reason i ask is because a friend of mine installed a custom turbo on his celica here and because of the placement of the power steering under the turbo in his setup, everytime he dyno'ed the car, his power steering basically blew up costing around AUS$2K (roughly US$1600) each time.

i assume left hand drive celicas (and therefore the US-spec celis) wont have this problem since i will assume the power steering system or watever is on the other side...altho im not quite sure

We have 2 UK drivers with the Celica GT kit right now. So far no problems with the power steering.

thats the one...
i know the guy but he's gone back to indo now. i was gonna just go custom like he did but his cost alot alot alot more and only pulls like 100 kilowatts... considering that stock its like 80+....thats not quite good enough especially for the amount of money and trouble he's gone thru.
