    How much boost can a stock 7mgte block hold?

    water to air may be more efficient for a race car, but for a street car a front mount air>air is more convenient, not to mention cheaper, simpler, and more reliable. an water to air requires ice to be efficient, otherwise it will eventually heat soak and just as it takes more to heat water, it...

    Injector sizes

    turbo or not, VE reaches a peak before redline. from http://supraforums.com/forum/printthread.php?threadid=248033 :)

    Injector sizes

    ok i see where i'm wrong. it doesn't matter whether a motor is over/undersquare, x amount of fuel is required for the same amount of air in either. what i didnt realize is that, at lower rpm, the injector is open for a longer time. in other words the same injector even at the same pulsewith...

    Injector sizes

    you guys are missing the point. true, more fuel is consumed at high rpm but that is because there are more cycles. The pulse width per cycle is less at high rpm. think VE. this is your typical 3d map (fuel @ load vs rpm): and back to my high tq/low hp comparison, lets take it a step...

    looking for a few stock parts

    actually i was looking for gray what i really need though is the speedo gear for now. eventually i'll replace my stained seats and missing interior pieces, but first i need to get it running right. any junk yards with a few supras around here?

    Injector sizes

    yes, it needs to open/close faster @ higher rpm, but but that's irrelevant. flow, as measured by the mfg, is tested at 100% duty at a predetermined pressure, not by how fast it can open/close. duty cycle is higher at peak torque than at redline, where torque declines, is it not? Let me give...

    Injector sizes

    I've always heard that for turbo, the better cam would be a high lift/short duration. You don't want too long of a duration because there will be more overlap between the intake and exhaust cams, where turbo pressure may be lost. The high lift, because you're forcing air into the cylinder so...

    looking for a few stock parts

    is there anyone locally (dallas) that has a bunch of leftover stock parts? I though i read it somewhere, but cant find the thread. i need a speedo cable, speedo gear, oil press. sender/sensor, and a few interior trim pieces.

    speedo not working, need speed based on rpm

    alright, i need some help guys. My daily took a shit so i'm forced to drive the supra as my commuter. the speedo doesnt work but the tach does so can someone please tell me what their cruising rpm is for 20mph/2nd gear, 30mph/3rd, 40mph/4th, and 50mph and 60mph/6th this is for the turbo model...

    apexi power fc

    look into the emanage ultimate. imo, its the best engine managment for a street driven car. unlike all other piggybacks, it has full control of the injectors, it doesnt just modify load to the ecu, but still allows the stock ecu to take care of everything close-loop related.

    only 200hp... sigh what else can i do?

    yeah, its possible, and its also possible to set it up wrong. what type of dyno was it? dont rely on your turbo timer for afr. it uses your stock narrowband sensor which has very little resolution on either side of 14.7afr. its really only good for measuring stoichometric ratio. what i'd...

    yes im sure. it does have a purpose just not for your application. if you want to use it then get a ebc instead of the manual

    Lexus maf question

    i was still following on that. safc+stock injectors+stock afm. car would function like stock until you went into the high throttle map, set at say 75% TP, where fuel would be trimmed to fix afr and automatically bump fuel cut. this conforms to your k.i.s.s. method :) i used rc engineerings...

    T4 Turbo/Wastegate hookup, help guys?

    it allows better control of boost theres a diaphram that controls the plungers up/down movement between those two ports. when pressure is applied on the bottom port the diaphram is pushed up and the wg opens. when theres pressure on the other side it closes

    T4 Turbo/Wastegate hookup, help guys?

    the bov gets hooked up to a vaccum source not the wg or anything past the throttlebody. tee off a line going to the intake manifold. if youre using a manual boost controller you only use the side port, leave the top port vented. and yes, the boost controller is installed inline between the...
