    Measured at the crank, not wheel, right? How much power did you make?

    6M stock piston limitations

    Little did I know I'd ate a ring the day before. #6 compression checks at 60psi. 350whp, 330 wtq on stock internals is only good for about 2 years (can't believe it's lasted that long). BNR stg4 CT26, Megasquirt EMS v2.2, Spec stg3+, and pump gas on a so-so tune. MMP test n tune -...

    TH400 guys: where do you get your TC's made?

    That's for the a340e tranny; i'm trying to stay away from that one thanks though

    TH400 guys: where do you get your TC's made?

    Wow, I had no idea they sold them! Thanks *EDIT* Those torque converters aren't setup for the Mkiii. They're just standard GM converters that got listed in the Mkiii section. They're price on a Holeshot 2400 stall is $361. Summit sells the same one for about $250

    The vacuum pump I had on the right forward side (behind the right headlight) was for pcv evac. Even with that running, the engine was blowing out oil. It pulls more vacuum than the turbo inlet ever could. I've ran to atmosphere on the dyno a week before with little vapor. Somewhere between...

    Talk about oddities, I think I know why I have the crankcase vent issues. Did the compression check today: 180's-190's at all cylinders except #6. I'm rocking 60, and I'm guessing it's a ring. Put oil in #6 and checked it again: 120 first test, then 90 So if I'm making 350whp with 5.5...

    You need to get with Brian and find out what compressor wheel you have. I have a crisp $1 bill in my pocket that says it's an H3

    If yall decide to come down, we have a dyno. It's easy to get a dyno day here because it doesn't get wrapped up like Blake's. MMP just did some work to the track; it's a little smoother now. Vixen: I find it funny about you boost problems. I wanted to target low boost, but I got boost...

    If you're getting fuel in your oil, one of the injectors may be sticking open. I've filled my combustion chambers to the point that the engine hydrolocked. :cry:

    Definitely good to see other Supra guys (and gals) in Alabama. I'm so lonely down here; no other Toyota people around :( Guess I made some gains with my car on the dyno; picked up about 25hp with ignition tuning. Sorry about trying to fumigate everyone.

    Any set dyno schedule? First come, first serve? Will Blake have enough Coronas for everyone? I'll need someone to drive my car on the dyno (if Blake doesn't). I'll be watching the live datalog and tuning, plus I suck at working the dyno. See yall foos tomorrow morning; I'm going to a...

    can a compression test be done w/ the engine out of the car?

    and maybe pull all the plugs except for the cylinder you are checking (that'll make it easier to spin over with the air wrench). i've never tried it myself

    TH400 guys: where do you get your TC's made?

    My father grabbed my 7M block, 7M flexplate, BH adapter, BH, TH400 and some hardware a few months ago. I haven't seen him (or my parts), but he called to say it's almost ready to test fit. He took an old Vega (small pattern) torque converter, had the snub machined to fit the 7M crank, then...

    Doing something different almost always never works out right the first time. My crazy-a$$ smog pump PCV system didn't perform like I thought it would, but it will. When in the AOR, you'll have plenty of time to draw out your plans and test-bench them over and over in your tent. I spent...

    That's pretty hardcore Keith. I thought about cleaning the trash out of my car, but then realized it's about 40 degrees cooler than what I consider decent weather. Don't look too hard at the red Mkii, you may turn to stone. Hmmm, Medusa might be a good name for her

    Baseline dynoed the CT/T4/T61 hybrid last night; looks like I've got a boost creep problem:3d_frown: Maybe we'll work some magic before the meet, but it's looking like I'll be making only 320whp with this setup. Are the dyno slots like a normal dyno day? 30 minutes/3 pulls per slot? If...
