Hmm, seems to me it wouldn't matter... My reasoning is: Coatings may have a higher standard deviation than say a machine that over bores... but I'm no expert on coating procedure. For all I know it could be an exact science far superior to block boring! Speaking of boring... I'll be...

Auf Deutsch: "Guten-tight." :D

Shouldn't you also have the thickness of the coating in mind when having the block bore matched? Something like a thousandths of an inch the coating usually adds?

It's like a physics problem dealing with movement and friction... once you over come the initial force to break it loose it takes less to move it.

Make sure the head and block are cooled off. (Don't do this after the engine has been running.)

;).

Wait for the day you drive your supra with a tubular manifold and open downpipe... talk about brain numbing.

Don't think you'll scare anything with an NA with an open header.

Flatness is the most important.

The nut is just a locking nut... the bolt it's on can be rotated left and right. (Left loosens the spring, right tightens the spring.) Should be a hex bolt, or allen-head bolt. hth.

Well I don't drive the car more than once a week, if that... and wanted to have some head room to hit 600hp w/o running out of injector. Looks like 680's will be going in... should make tuning a little easier compared to 720-750's at the moment. I think I'll run a dual feed to the rail first...

What I've learned is the larger the diameter, the more control over lower boost levels. (more air being bypassed the turbine.) On most applications... big motors and BIG turbos means larger wastegate(s). The rule of thumb is "Run half the max boost pressure spring intended on running." (If you...

mmm... nice. :-P

(06:40:50) Howard (Blackdevil): I used 780cc's (Delphi Injectors). :) Thanks for chiming in, Ant. I think I'll get some 680's from a fella on SF and try them first. -Brent

Part 1: I was reading up on injectors, specifically RC "720cc" injectors that Genna ran in the red car... but all I see on HFP for RC's are 750cc. I need a set of injectors to support 700hp MAX, with usual workload to do 600 daily. Part 2: I'm running a VPC with a 550 chip, but I know...

Yes. That little bark you hear before the bov opens is technically surge. The pressure change is so fast, the bov just cannot react quick enough. It's normal though, as long as it's not prolonged you'll be fine.

Nope.. stock location. Just take the intake pipe off, and maybe the lower IC pipe and it's right there. You can kinda see what I mean in this picture:

Changing the filter is just as easy as before... I always do it from the top of the engine bay.

I got a tanabe 3.5" somewhere around here.
