Mine makes a nice wooosh sound. Its not very loud, but I can occasionly hear it. I'm guessing aftermarket ones are probably a lot louder.

It seems to happen randomly. It does not happen when I first start the car in the morning, so I was thinking that it was probably not the valve stem seals. I took it for a spin today and I didn't see any smoke, but I could smell it. Yesterday when I came to a stop light a huge cloud of smoke...

Thanks, I should have checked that a long time ago. I was in denial!! Just sucks that my turbo starts to give out right when I start to feel what its capable of! haha. 57trim does sound nice.

Update....I installed a different tank on my Supra yesterday. And guess what. Its fixed!!!! Wooohooo!!! Fuel pump pickup was nasty!!! It was full of rusty muddy crap! Put new tank and strainer and now it boosts fine and no more hesitation. First time i've ever felt full boost!!! FEELS...

I've used the starter trick once....on accident!! Bolt flew right off. Doh!

I've seen broken wheels, but that was from hitting a curb. Didn't matter what type of wheel it was.

I had the stock OEM intake on it when I first got it and started tracking down this issue. Only installed the Apexi Intake because it was such a PITA to remove the stocker when checking for boost leaks!!

I drove the car with B+ and FP jumpered to test the relay as suggested and I didn't notice a difference. It still hesitated and lost power at about 3500 rpms. It felt the same jumpered or not.

Tested the jumpered pins and it didn't have any affect.

Definately one of my favorite shows as well. Those guys are crazy and hilarious. Some of the stunts they pull are just nuts. A lot of time doing it with no safety equipment!!

I can try running it with the pins jumpered and test the relay. I will do that today. But most likely the strainer is clogged.

Took the sending unit out and took a look and it doesn't look as nice as I remember! 8-( See some rusty stuff sitting at the bottom. Looks like I need to either clean it and or replace it. I'm leaning toward replacing it. Maybe I can have some luck finding a good replacement.

May be a good idea. I dropped the tank when I first got it and it seemed ok. But you may be right. Wish you didn't have to drop the tank to get to the fuel pump.

Definately a mystery. No boost controller and i've replaced the wastegate vacuum hose and tested the actuator operation and it seems fine. I hate throwing parts at a problem, and the funny thing is, pretty much everything i've replaced need to be replaced. But it hasn't been my main...

Still have the stock FPR and the J-tube has not been altered. Fuel pump is about a year old. It was just an OE replacement.

Update....I decided to replace all my intake manifold side gaskets. So I now have new intake, EGR, Throttle body, and ISCV gaskets. The EGR valve gaskets looked to have been blown and it were loose. But all of this did nothing to my original problem. It may be running a little better. No...

LOL. How do you know I got them off your Supra huh!! Maybe I got them from some other Supra with SSR's!! Oh wait....!! Atleast I know I'm not the only one to photoshop them onto their car and fantasize!

Thought I would share my Photoshop of the Cruise Sakara wheels on my Supra. Couldn't find any pictures of the XXR wheels. Can't really tell much difference in the pics. Can't see the fake rivets. Tell me what you think. I'm loving the Gold and Blue combo. Or should I hold out...

I think I have a boost leak around the same area. I can smell the fumes and hear the air, but can not see anything. I'm going to replace all my gaskets on the intake side, including the EGR gaskets. Hopefully I will find what leaking down there.

Thats what I thought until I ran acrosse these. Kinda weird that they are not on their website. I don't think its updated. Here is where I found them. http://www.motorsportsr.com/commerce/product_info.php?cPath=24_26_64&products_id=143
