Swapped out my ait sensor for a fresh one I had laying around and now it runs great again. No Idea why the original would have issues only has a few k on it but who knows maybe I just had a weird heat soak condition. I know I havent been updating but the supra has taken a backseat for the time...
Got it all back together yesterday and drove it around a bit. Ran great, staying out of boost until the retorque here in about another 100 miles. Took it into town today, stopped somewhere and when I fired it up hot it was missing bad. Sounded like it was running on 4-5 cylinders exactly like a...
Oops missed that, everything else still applies
Ken, not arguing with you one bit. I agree the fuel system should be upgraded first, I just believe there is a bit of a false mentality that you have to upgrade to 550s for any real power increase. Upgraded pump and fpr are a must and either have...
14psi shouldnt be over 80% on the 440s, they have more in them that a lot of people think. However 14psi on a stock system is all around bad. At that your pushing the stock pump pretty hard. Afpr and a new pump are a must and 440s should only be pushed if they have been cleaned and flowed. Your...
so anyways long story short, turns out something very very small was sitting in the plug galley just waiting to jump into my engine. I pulled the plugs it silently fell in, put it back together went to start it, obviously made a hellatious racket and I proceded to pull everything off and do a...
Pics of said ic improvements? Got my head back and am going to throw it back together for now. Might have it done today, then again its supposed to be the hottest day so far today and the shop is at least +10 degrees inside so maybe not. Either way Ill post an update today. Interested in how...
what are you running from the turbo back? 12 sounds a bit high but Its common to be stuck with 9-10 or above because your exhaust flows so well the waste gate cant keep up even when fully open. I ported mine for this reason.
Pulled the head yesterday, you know you have done this too many times when it only takes a couple of hours. Well its definitely not good, more info and pics once I figure out what I'm going to do
Ken I might take that head off your hands after all.
I doubt you would even feel a slight bit of increase. Water/meth injection is more for knock retard/timing increase than anything else. Yes it will clean your engiine and any tuning even with the SAFC will help but 10psi is no where near needing meth inj.
I dont know about on decel, but it was a steady amount of light smoke at idle particularly after the car was completely warm and had been driven for a while.
Right now I have a bigger problem, compression in cylinder 4 is low:icon_evil. Oil in the cylinder doesn't change it so its...
So I decided to pull the DP and elbow and take a look,
Elbow shows normal dry build up
And the turbine and housing show very little at all and are actually a nice light tan color.
So I cant find any evidence of oil in the exhaust and am at a total loss. Any ideas at all...
