    A faulty wire can def make a ECU fail. Especially a bad or a shorting wire to an injector.

    resistor pack

    Yup, its easy. It bolts cleanly to the intake manifold for a stock look and to keep the wires short. I reccomend it over the MKIV resistor pack, and over radioshack ones.

    smoking? burning oil? only some times? whats the deal in this situation

    I remember my stock twin car, if i would park on a certain angle, i would start the car and it would smoke like a bitch. It would go away after a mile of driving.

    what kinda hp would i be looking at

    if your going to install 550's and minus out 33% so the car runs good.. why even install 550's? That just puts you back to 380cc's of fuel. My 1JZ ran rich at 18psi with stock injectors. 10:1

    Water temperature sensorin 1jz

    MAke sure you ground out the ground wire on the coolent temp wire on the 2 prong sensor. When swapping a jdm motor in a usa car, it doesnt ground.

    what kinda hp would i be looking at

    I ran my turbos at 18psi for along time. They never blew. On your setup Tyler, your going to run VERY VERY VERY rich. Stock 380cc's or JDM 440's would be better. If your lucky, maybe 340whp very tuned.

    Dead/burnt out ECU??
