    Lots of heat inside of car

    well for the vsv, just a very small amount of coolant will flow through the vsv, i put one against a water hose and just a tiny bit of water barely makes it through. also forgot to say, the shift boot is fine, i already inspect it.

    neither, car is solid, clogged cat? not sure, car smells bad tho after a good drive in the hot weather, and theres no leak on the exhaust, and car does not over heat either, and i still have the heat shield on too, but i do have both the cats on, i do plan on removing them since i dont do emissions

    FT-86 could it be the supra replacement!?

    not 100% sure but, there are more cars that might have turbo and better cars, but the problem is that, the US dont allow those cars in here, like the toyota aurion, its a very nice looking car but not allowed here, and theres the corolla hatch, but again like you said no more turbo, most of it...
