    What is the best MKIII EMS?

    The system is only as good as its tuner. I agree that the motec is the most advanced system on the market.. but it will be terrible if the tuner doesn't know how to tune it. Ask your tuner what he prefers. Sent from my HTC Rezound using Tapatalk

    GTE running rough but no misfire cant figure out!!!

    All I have to say is wow. You ask for advice.. and then the CAR tells you what's wrong and you ignore it and claim you're an expert. I've said it before. I'll say it again. Fix what the car says is wrong....... Sent from my HTC Rezound using Tapatalk

    So... Fix that. -_- And besides. It won't throw a tps code unless the tps is hooked up. Sent from my HTC Rezound using Tapatalk

    1g (i assume same as 7m) o2 sensor plug question

    Where can you buy that connector? Or... A plug that will connect to a different o2 sensor that will bolt into the Turbo elbow... :o Sent from my HTC Rezound using Tapatalk

    Electrical guru needed!

    I took a q-tip and dipped it into paint thinner and took the yellow paint off the bottom. Then took a red touch up pen and put a coat of paint on the bottom. For the speedo and tach I painted the centers black. Sent from my HTC Rezound using Tapatalk

    Okay. Cliffs for today. Hooked up the signal wire direct from the IG- in the check connector, still intermittent operation. Hooked up a different tach to power, ground, and signal (via IG- in check connector) same result. Same reading infact, even though it was an 89 gauge (driver board in the...

    350?????

    Honestly, what I would do is rebuild the engine, deck the block and head, and run a titan 1.4mm head gasket (as long as you didnt have to have an obnoxious amount of material taken off... I had enough taken off that I should have used a 2.0mm gasket, but I decided to run a 1.4, for slightly...

    Which wire do I need to hook into to get the tach signal?

    So.. theoretically if I got a 90 ignitor and a 90 tach it should work correctly? Sent from my HTC Rezound using Tapatalk

    Well there has to be a difference between pre 89 and post 89 ignitors, otherwise there wouldn't be the resistance change in the driver board, correct? Assuming that's correct, there must be some wiring fault... But what that doesn't explain is why it was rock solid when I had the original tach...

    Okay. So I've been living without a tach ever since I swapped in the GTE. My first attempt was at a resistor swap. It went according to plan, except i noticed that the tach was always 4-500 rpm off. Sometimes even 1k rpm off. (idled at 500, went down the highway at 2000 instead of 2500, rev...

    7MGTE Gasket question and 1990 MK3 Auto Questions

    The only differences between ge and GTE would be the upper intake or throttle body. Otherwise everything else should be exactly the same. And the diff ratios are 3.9 in the pre 89 and 3.7 in the post 89. All turbos are like that. N/a is 4.3 all years. Sent from my HTC Rezound using Tapatalk

    Doesn't mean it isn't forged... Sent from my HTC Rezound using Tapatalk

    Don't all Toyota's after like 1980 or something like that come with forged cranks and rods? Sent from my HTC Rezound using Tapatalk
