if you dont run alot of boost and dont push the limits of the stock fuel system much, you can run GE pistons and benefit from the higher compression for offboost and low boost condidtions it will make the car much more responsive and a tad more powerful, but you have a greater chance for...

make sure your diamond plate floor panels dont go falling off next

id pay 500-1500 at most because u cannot drive it home. i bought my first supra in Boston and it was so cancered up (rusted) that when i went to jack the car up for the bhg that the lip you use to jack up imports crumbled and large chunks fell off. so that is a HUGE concern from a car coming...

you could go to an injector shop and ask to have them flow tested. i would suggest RC injectors they come with flow #'s because they rebuild and clean injectors

this analogy might help some understand the stack protruding into the plenum being bad if you had the intake manifold off the car and pointed the runners perpendicular to the ground and poured water into the throttle body water would catch around the *velocity* stacks if they protruded out into...

whats the weight of that contraption (rotating assembly only)

well most after market ring companies coat their rings with a layer of moly for wear resistance and hence why they would not be chrome. but after use it will wear of and both rings will be chrome from wear toyota rings are good rings but you may get a much better price from like champion toyota...

microsquede like in that picture above i would say is superior to vinyl wont be near as hot or cold and looks like leather also =) and kevlar for the bolsters would make it look like racing seats and help the wear issue.
