    Holset turbo on 1jz?

    ric, im with you. I believe in whats tried and true, even if holsets are used on factory diesels. I do not believe in cheaping out, especially when it comes to a turbo. If someone is willing to experiment, so be it, but get ready for the worst, because i can tell anyone now eating an impeller...

    BOV Location

    i guess what doesnt make sense to me is why you would bother? The bov relieves pressure that hits the throttle plate..theres a small volume of air still in the ic piping but not much...especially to make a difference in temp. The air thats rushing in barely gets a chance to heat up, unless the...

    BOV Location

    I believe its best near the throttle plate, because thats the first point the pressure will build up.

    Charger Daytona R/T

    meh, id take the sacrifice. The interior looks better IMO the sound is intimadating, WRC backs them like 50 times more, etc...Of course, if i ended up buying the car, im one of those people who doesnt like stock form...too soft, slow, quiet etc. so i would have the engine and trans built to...

    Charger Daytona R/T

    Nice kills! speaking of which, i drove an 06 wrx for the first time last night. Oh man im hooked! The evo has nothing on it other than power. It wasnt even an sti, but i can tell you the way it handles and reacts the only difference could be power.

    1JZ gauges....

    nothin. fuse was fine, i tore the assembly apart again and checked the grounds. All my other door sensors and switches work. Another odd thing was that my ign fuse was blown apart. Im surprised it even worked.

    1JZ gauges....

    k ill try that. One thing that hurts is being fooled. At first i was wondering why it wouldnt come on when it was disassembled and hanging...then i was like GROUND! lol but that didnt work either.

    2JZ NA-T in my 87T

    Ive come to believe that Toyo Proxe 4s are an all around great tire, possibly the best. You know that means something coming from someone who lives in an extremely rainy state. Really sticky on dry pavement, and i believe a 100 treadwear rating. I think your sizes will work great too! I may go...

    1j in 88 ma70

    what you should do then is see if you can get a hold of color coded wires so you can color match them. That will save you some confusion and time. Other than that, my advice is to cut and solder one wire at a time....I think i just threw up in my mouth a little bit...

    Twin Turbos

    no such thing. Other than drag of the two shafts of course. In that case, i guess a SMALL amount could effect it. Past a certain point though, twin is better because a built 2j or something can actually outflow a T76 lol. But thats just another way of proving displacement is the most efficient...
