Funny you mention that, because Newgen, supradjza, MacDaddy J 420, SupraStardom, Koenigturbo, tsuper92, supramike7m, and Guyana00, have been members of this board longer than you, and they not only have a better sense of humor, but know how to share knowledge without belittling those they're...

That's what I was thinking, but.... Mr. Furious has a different Idea! So angry!! :icon_evil I'm going to try what Newgen said because it's a simple, easy thing to try, then if that doesn't work, I'm going to put the stock cat back on untill I get 550's and MAF Pro or a Lex afm. Any...

Well... You're completely wrong... Sorry man... On the brighter side of things, I heard about a white MKIII with a 2jz-gte swap just sitting in some garage not far from my place... The owner's brother said he'd sell it to me cheap, so I think I'll just go get that and toss it in over the...

Right on, Matt!!

No doubt!! I'm fairly responsible when it comes to my financials... I don't want to go beyond what I can make with this turbo until well after I finish college, so I'll plan for that. I'm honestly not that power-hungry, so I'd sacrifice speed for reliability and longevity any day. I'll keep...

I'll never use anything like a Fuel Cut Defender or anything like that. That negates a safety precaution put on there for good reason! Ideally, I'd like a set-up that idles and accelerates as smooth and stock and is just as safe a/f ratio wise. Has anyone else had any experience reguarding Map...

Then you would recommend MAF Pro? Are there freeware EMS programs like Chrome or Hondata like there are for Honda ECUs? Does bypassing the j-tube increase fuel pressure, and is this necessary when upgrading to a MK IV fuel pump or a Walboro? I ask a lot of questions lol

Thanks for your info! I'l probably end up going Lex/550 next summer. You can lower boost with a boost controller? I didn't think you could do that... Also, what's a j-tube?

I thank you for your info, but little less angst would be appreciated, man. I didn't understand your point due to inexperience with AFM systems. You can get your point across without being a smartass! Thank you! Only when I let off the gas because my BOV isn't recirculated, but I can't see how...

Yeah, I have an HKS EVC IV boost controller, but it's not turned on. It doesn't even have power going to it lol. The psi I have now I get from my '57 trim, DDP, test pipe, HKS exhaust. Thanks for the info, Enraged! SUPERB product, BIC! Thank you! It's alright, Gaboonviper85! You've made...

I freaking love it... It's quiet until you get into boost then it sounds MEAN!! It's not horrifically loud, but there's no denying it's there! Also, there's a definite gain in spool time, boost psi, as well as throttle response. Worth every freakin' penny!! Thanks again, everyone!

I've read a some "how-to's" and read many "Lex AFM & 550" help threads since I got my car in April to get a feel for what it entails and I might consider doing this upgrade next summer as it is the next step in modding my car, but when I set out to put on this DDP, I really just wanted to get a...

Wouldn't that be the safest route? I might be acting a bit cautious because I have no idea how to tune an AFC to run safely above normal fuel cut psi limits.

Oh, no. I haven't touched that. How would I know if I open it too much? Do I risk running lean by toying with that screw? Will it affect my idle? Can the AFC read my a/f ratio well enough on its own to tune it w/o a wideband? Is this something I could expect a reputable dyno tuner to be able...

Hey everyone! I just installed a BIC divorced downpipe and a 3" test pipe on my car today and as luck would have it, I hit fuel cut *right* at the top of my gears. (it's and auto) I think due to that fact, I can assume I'm fairly close to not hitting fuel cut and I thought I'd get on here and...

Thx, nosechunks! Now that you mention it, I had forgotten that the auto sported less boost stock. The fact that it's damn-near the same as the manual while using less boost should support the 'auto = faster' argument. However, at the end of the day you should just go with what you have the...

The auto keeping boost is what makes it faster. Stock for Stock, or x for x... Identical power plants in identical Supras with the only difference being either auto or manual... Auto will be faster. I was told the auto MKIV was almost a second faster in the 1/4 than the manual. Correct me...

I can't see where the level of modification would make a difference if both engines were equal in output. An auto still won't loose boost between shifts! When I first went Supra shopping the first one I looked at was a manual, and the second was an auto. The manual was a POS for sure, but in...

I can get you more pics of a blue one if you want!

Can I give you my whole firstborn and get 2 with shipping? :naughty:
