    porting ?????

    cool. my engine guy said i could "clean up" the intake, i wasn't sure about the exhaust. i don't trust myself to do the head, i'll leave that to the experts. :) unfortunately, he said he has 24 hours in my buddies 7m head. :( he's running a big t4 turbo, 272 cams, forged internals, etc...

    Need a new Turbo :/

    any "good" tuner should be able to tune a supra. if your turbo is still ok, i would go with the lex-550 combo. you won't believe the difference it makes. it's like a whole different car. if you haven't done it already, get a good downpipe and exhaust. i highly recommend the bic ddp, and full 3"...

    porting ?????

    porting ?????

    i'm already polishing everything i can get my hands on. i like shiny stuff. lol i'm just trying to get everything i can out of the parts i have, and from the a ct based turbo. i was just wondering if port matching the intake and exhaust would help at all.

    Need a new Turbo :/

    lol. i was hitting fuel cut all the time, even without a boost controller. i added a lex afm, and 600cc injectors and i can run 16psi with no issues. i'm still on a tired ct26, but i really want a billet 58 from albert. i'd like to see what i can get out of this thing. :)

    Need a new Turbo :/

    my tuner got 430 wheel hp out of a stock 7m. it had a t4 adapter with a precision turbo, and megasquirt. i think the stock injectors were maxed out, so he stopped there.

    Need a new Turbo :/

    i have read some threads that say the 60-1 isn't reliable. however, maybe the way they are built now proves more reliable. from what i've read, the 57 trim or billet 58? trim is a better choice. most people will tell you to go with an adapter and a t4 due to the many choices there are out...

    porting ?????

    just wondering........... is there any benefit to porting a 7m exhaust manifold? i did this to an eclipse i had, and it helped. also, what about the intake manifolds? just looking for small things i can do while the motor is apart. :icon_bigg

    Need a new Turbo :/

    it's totally up to you, but i'm not comfortable spending $500 on a used turbo. i'd rather have a cx racing or godspeed upgraded one for less $. my plan is to get a 57 trim from albert. shoot him a pm, he may have something for you.

    Need a new Turbo :/

    find out who built it. also, try to get it for like $400. i think you can pick up a fresh one for $600 or so.

    What did you do to your supra today? Pics

    i might look into that too. there can't be that many rust free 1990 white package, targa supras left. :) i'd hate to have it totaled and the insurance company hand me a $50 check.

    What did you do to your supra today? Pics

    keep an eye on him. i was rear ended at a red light last august. i figured i only had whiplash and some soreness,. after a few months i found out i had 1 torn disc and one bulging disc. the bumper held up perfectly, but the impact transferred to myself and the seat. hopefully he will be fine...

    Car not starting randomly? READ THIS (30 Amp Starter Relay Mod)

    yesterday my car decided not to start. first time ever, so i hoped it was something simple. after reading this whole thread, i did some diag. i tested the relay and found it good, i pulled the dome light fuse to see if it was an alarm issue, i then checked for power to the starter with the key...
