    HKS f-con + gcc = motor no start

    Sure you have it wired in properly? Do you have the correct chip in the FCON? Did you connect up the map sensor for the FCON? Does the ECU have power? Is the fuse blown? Does the engine run without the FCON?

    Car not having enough power, SOMETHINGs wrong.

    Bad gas. I used to work for a gas company and there would be times where the driver drops off gas and puts the wrong grade in the wrong tank. You would be pumping premium when half the gas in the tank was regular. No one knows that it happens and no one really cares, so the gas station just...

    Does anyone actually rev their 7M?

    Back in the early nineties, there was an article in Turbo magazine of someone in FL that had a 7m that reved to 8500rpm making 500+ hp. He used a NA intake manifold, cause through testing he found it flowed more evenly to all the cylinders. I can't seem to find the article anywhere, but if...

    Fuel cut sucks.

    You can increase the fuel pressure and then you would have to lean out on the afc. That will move your fuel cut up also. But best to get MAFT pro or VPC.

    Just make sure you don't get it from the Tri-State Crematory, apparently theirs do not work..... :rofl: But really, o2 sensor is o2 sensor..... They all work the same..... Ground cables are ground cables too. Even the cheap ebay ones are better than none. The problem is finding places on...

    Settling an argument about wiring harness

    Keep your engine, but use all turbo electronics. Much easier to tune and run more power later on. The biggest problem I had with the NA electronics turbocharged is the transition between no boost and some boost or if you drove at that point, like climbing a hill. The car would surge, stumble...

    Where Can I Get Adjustable Rr Wing Mounts???

    No one makes an adjustable wing mount. Your just going to have to make it yourself. Go get some 1/4" thick aluminum sheets. Draw it the way you want the mount to look like, pay someone to laser cut it for you and install it. Just make sure you cut the adjustablility holes into the mounts...

    Drawback to cheap parts?

    Have you guys ever seen all the parts that advance and autozone sells that are remanufactured from denso, aisin, etc... All these are the original manufacturers for Toyota. Even buying parts from Toyota, half the time you get reman parts anyway, cause no one makes new parts for certain items...

    EGR block off plate...

    Cunning plan..... Register your car at a buddies, friends, cousins house that lives where there is no emissions. If you live in Cali... Move out of the state.... :bigthumb: You can register your car to my house. I only charge $100/year for maintenance fees.... :biglaugh:
