    low throttle tuning..

    my bad....i meant to say closed loop and open loop. Closed loop is up to 75% throttle and open loop is 75% +?? so it is useless to make any changes in a closed loop setting since the ECU will just adjust those settings back to where it wants??

    low throttle tuning..

    So let me get this straight with your help. The ECU controls all fuel maps under 75% throttle thus meaning that any changes to the SAFC at LOW THROTTLE settings are basically useless?? and on the SAFC i should have the low throttle at 74% and high throttle at 75 %?? so if that makes sense...

    Help me buy a truck to haul my MK3

    come on guys. He doesn't need a diesel to tow his supra. Our cars are heavy pigs, but not THAT heavy. IMO all you need is a full size gas powered truck. That way it is still enjoyable when you aren't towing your supra. Plus maintenance and parts are way cheaper on gas vehicles then on diesel.

    before i go ahead and install my gas tank back in, i'm kind of skeptical about using the butt-connectors they provided. Is there any reason why i SHOULDN'T use solder along with some heat shrink?? will the gasoline in time dissolve the solder???

    my car sounds awful

    yep idle is within specs.... thing that gets to me is that the noise isn't audible at COLD operating temps. However when the engine is warm and all the materials expand that is when the "tick" comes out,

    my car sounds awful

    i put my fuel pressure to stock pressure. I thought at first it could've been the injectors, but no i don't think it is. The "knock" is just too loud.
