    so i dont know much about race gas..

    ...but if my understanding is correct. Race fuel will NOT alter the A/f ratio, is that correct? It is just safer to prevent from detonation allowing turbo cars to run more boost? The reason i'm wondering, is i need to tune my car after i have installed my maft, and i want to be safe before...

    sandwich oil filter (oil pressure/temp sender unit).

    I didnt know what to make for the title of this thread. Anyways, there is a more-subaru specific site, which sells sender units for oil pressure and temperature. Instead of tapping the block or oil pan, this adapter is sandwiched between the oil filter housing, and the oil filter. I was...

    always something. I cannot keep this car running.

    It seems that with this car it has been one thing after another. I love it, but i'm getting aggrivated and need some help with this problem. I was about a mile from work cruising at a steady 14% throttle when i see my tach randomly drop 700 rpms (i mean 1/4 second quick, stock flywheel). This...

    WTF happend, car will not idle..?!?!

    I drove my car to the local advance auto after getting all my Vf's straight with my newly installed MAFT. It ran like a champ. I was monitoring my Vf's and my A/R's on the way there as a matter of fact. I turn the car off and go inside to pick up a few things. I come back out 5 or so mins later...

    those of you running maft and 550's..

    did anyone have trouble setting the base for your 550's on your maft? I'm monitoring with a wideband and it seems like whatever i set it at, the car runs realllly lean, and then goes to 14.7 A/f's (where it is supposed to be). The thing is, I'll get really crappy throttle response on the 550...

    so has anyone figured out the FCD in MAFT?

    I was just wondering if anyone has figured out how to use the fuel cut defenser that is built into the maft. I'm trying to tune my car but i'm still running into fuel cut. My A/F's looks 10x better than they did with the lexus AFM, but i cant get past it. Additional information, if needed, I...

    Fuel cut sucks.

    i just finished my end of summer project. cometic headgasket, ARP's, 550's, Lexus AFM, Walbro, and a SP61GT. I have an upgraded FMIC, hardpipes, anad a turbo back 3" exhaust, of course.

    EGR question..

    My supra is suffering from horrid throttle response and a ticking noise. This sounds like it could be comming from one of the two rear cylenders. Is it possible that this noise is from a leaking EGR cooler? Furthermore, could a leaking EGR cooler/Block off plates be the culprit of the horrid...

    How can i tell?

    If i have a walbro without dropping the gas tank? ....i dont think there is a way. But humor me. The original owner did a lot of mods to the car, and i know he put in a new fuel pump, i bought one just in case i dont have one. After looking at the instructions, i realized that i'd seen those...

    Anyone extended the lines from the bottom of it and put it anywhere else, i was thinking about doing this to free up some space. I was thinking about locating it where the charcoal canister used to be. Any reasons why i couldnt do this?

    electronic boost controllers- which is best?

    There are a lot of nice ones out, but i havnt seen any function first hand. I like the looks and idea behind the Greddy Profec E-01, The AVCR, and i like the accurate boost sensor option of the Turbosmart E-Boost2. Who likes what and why? (oh, and does the profec e-01 give a boost reading...

    Where can i get O-rings or Gromets for injectors? I'm having a hard time getting my injectors to fit right and i think some thicker/bigger O-rings/gromets would do the trick.
