gav you will need to do plenty of other things to go with it.
if you put a mani and decat on you need to port the wastegate on the turbo.
you also need to sort the fuelling. as you already have a jam fcd, it would be best to get an rrfpr at the very least aswell.
and then get it all setup on the rollers.

you'll only need to mess around with fuel "really" if your going to up the air intake by a fair amount into the engine. In other words if your uping your boost and you dont wana run lean then you'll need to adjust your fuel pressure. otherwise your risking blowing your engine mate.

right forget what everyone has said.
you need an rrfpr at least these cost about £100.
you need to get rid of the manifold aswell.
if you get rid of the catalytic converter, then chances are you will have to port the wastegate. you need to port the wastegate if you suffer boost creep.
now you might not suffer boost creep but as you have to take the turbo off to fit the mani, and you have to take the turbo off to port the waste gate you may aswell just do this anyway.
if you dont do these modifications, and still run the engine at 1bar boost you WILL either break the piston rings or even break the piston itself in cylinder number 3 at least.
i had my car 2 weeks and blew the engine after running the same mods as you.
except i done piston 1,2 aswell as 3.
to everyone else, gav already has a jam actuator.

after doing all that u should be seeing between 160-180bhp.
and to answer your original question, your stock efi pipe will not melt.
it is a high heat resistant plastic, and is actually a metal tube inside
there is a group buy on at the moment for fuel pumps and regulators at the to: http://www.toyotagtturbo.com/showthread.php?t=11469

have i lol[/QUOTE]
lol yes gav lol
it looks like stock but runs 1 bar. it may be a TOM'S actuator, but mor than likely a jam one seeing as you have a JAM fcc aswell.
also when looking at your car i couldnt see any form of boost controller, so i am assumng you have a jam actuator lol

yeah, but you still need to sort the mani and fuelling issue, if you want to run the car on high boost

if you're running a standalone ECU or piggy back system, you don't need a FPR or anything like that, correct?
