okay, I was taking out the oil vaper line that goes from the valve covers to the accoridan pipe, I accidentally blocked off the breather vents on the valve covers. I dident know it untill later but this caused the motor to pour out HEAVY smoke while driving and oil was coming out the BOV and it...

Is it normal to get lower boost in first and second? My car did this since it was stock, now first and second is about 10 PSI and 3rd and 4th is 16 (BTW I have mods and BC) Just the turbo running out of air at higher rpm? Basically at low RPM under load I get tons of boost. I know Saab has a...

Okay theres 3 tubes running into it, what do they do? One looks like for the stock "bypass valve", the other looks like an oil breather with the exeption its also hooked to the TB for some reason? and the last one really stumps me it runs from this gizmo on the manifold what is the purpose of...

I have strong mid power first and second but then 3rd and 4th (at highway speeds) the car completely looses its pull. Almost like the turbo shut down. First and second its running 10 PSI but 3rd and up it runs more (about 15) Despite the extra boost the car is slower. The car also seems to pull...

I took out the dash to install guage covers and the speedo needle got nudged. Now the needle does not rest at 0 instead it rests at the bottom. what do I do to fix this? Would installing a resting point for the needle work?

I have a 88 Supra with 3 1/2 inch from turbo, boost controller, intake and Lex A/F on about 15-18 PSI. I am replacing the injectors and I dont know what size to go with. I have seen 550cc (stock on a 93-98) 650, 750 and 850 for sale. I know ppl that have gone with 550 but why not go higher? im...

My engine was running sketchy so I found the problem there was what appears to be a mix of oil and water on top of the spark plugs like in that bay area with the holes in the top. The spark was grounding out in the water. I might have got the water in there from pressure washing but im not...

Okay raise your hand if you still have those hideous stock clunker rims full of old brake dust and painted gray so they look like plastic hub caps? Trust me, mine looked worse then yours do! Until now... everyone is like damn u got new rims im like no not exactly same ones... $5 dollars, 5...

Okay, heres the deal, wento the auto store to buy new bosch 02 they gave me one with only 1 wirehookup not 3 they told me it would work. I ran the one wire to the blue wire because thats the main sensor wire. The other 2 are for a heated 02? whats the difference? seems to work whats the...

Okay just lettin everyone know I did some searching the other night found some sweet ass mods for FREE! Poor mans fuel pump upgrade 12 Volt fuel pump mod - TAKES ABOUT A MINUTE TO DO!! My car has much better responce and some more midend power after this mod, unplug the silver box on...

Did I hear somethin a few weeks back about a 12 volt fuel pump mod or was I day dreaming? Cant find it in search....

How hard is it to install the 550 injectors? It looked fairly simple whats involved, about how long does it take? Also with the 550 injectos and lexus ls 400 A/F what kinda HP gain should I expect under about 15 PSI?

OKay, can somone explain how this works... You line up at a light take off first, second third but from off the line how can an intercooler possibly do anything if there is no airflow untill you start moving at speeds? Youd have to be around highway speeds in order for an air-air intercooler to...

okay heres the deal im running 17 PSI and all my turbo piping keeps blowing off or blowing up. the 3000 coupling blew apart and the other pipes have all blown off no matter how hard I tighten them after I get on it for a few minutes POOF! So I got fed up wento the supply house, got a 10 foot...

Okay, to start off I must say I have had alot of fast cars in my life but the powerband on my supra has a wired pull and I dont know if its normal or if somethin is wrong. I have 3 inch from turbo all the way, BC, BOV Intake and A/F box mod. I am running around 15 PSI depending on the gear and...

Realistically, if I ran my car without an innercooler just piped it up direct what would the difference be? I know it would be getting warmer air so I could lose a little power but in reality how much? I can't imagine an air to air innercooler making a really big difference in the air temp...

My car just started leaking oil in the turbo piping I dunno where its coming from, is this normal? When I went to change the spark plugs I also noticed a little in the back plug housing in the middle but the plugs were dry it was just on top. I think the oil is coming from the turbo?

Okay heres the deal, new to the whole supra thing, picked up the car few weeks back, did some mods and whatnot. My car runs and drives good but the next morning or hours after I shut it down then it takes about 7 cranking seconds to start and when it does start, sometimes stumbles a little then...

I had a boost controller but I kept gettin FC right away so I took it off and now I still get FC now with stock boost WTF... im lookin into a few possibilitys, maybe have an innercooler leak or bad A/F box? Tell me what you guys think! Seems like I irritated the FC system now it just wants to...

just so everyone knows, the FF is almost impossible to change so I cut the line on the drivers side the one all the way over, right before the rear tire and ran a new line over and down so now my fuel filter sits on the top of the differential I just left the old one up there, I dunnno who would...
