after reading your post again, I noticed you mentioned you dont own a 3s... neither do I. All my friends have 3s's, and I have much greater respect for those guys. I enjoy going to 3si meets, Z club meets, supra meets, mustang meets, honestly, 3si people are nicer, open, caring, more so than...

actually, 3s's are more common to have rodknock than our 7m's. I bet you didnt know that. I bet you dont know why 3s's are more common to rodknock, although, I wouldnt expect you to. I guess what really sets me off is ignorance of people thinking that one car is superior than others based...

and you are now a 3S expert too. Its kinda funny, I didnt see you at the 2k4, 2k5, 2k6 tx3si meets. Im not saying I am an expert, but I think I know a wee bit more about 3s's than you. Regardless, he has 300lbs on me(thanks to my heavy ass supra)

In my selling parts days, I used to deliver to LG motorsports(Also Known As: Corvette GODS!). One of the mechanics drove an 04 cobra with goodies. He put 2K worth of mods(pullies, headers, exhaust, tune) 18psi of boost on stock charger and laid down 515hp to the wheels... His two biggest...

Stock supra... not too shabby. I understand you are from California but, exhaust work is necessary. Cooleeze makes a decent downpipe and test pipe(to replace your stock cat) and bolt on your favorite cat back and you will love the results. Do a nice cone air filter(K&N, Apex'i...) and you...

http://www.team3s.com/FAQ-Specs1.htm That was easy... look up 1993 base 3000gt, curb weight is 3219 vs my 3505lbs.....

SICK! :evil2:

the castings are toyota, the piston is sometimes oem, sometimes not, the seals are aftermarket. The quality is no where near oem. Coming from first hand experience, autozone sells junk, what they sell is based on the lowest bidder, is that what you want on your car??? Also, if its not...

word. I worked for autozone, I wouldnt buy a replacement bulb from those bastards. If you got the money for an mkiv, you can afford quality toyota parts. You gotta pay to play. Funny story, my close friend has an '85 turbo 300zx, he bought a rear caliper from autozone and has had to replace...

Good points throughout, hard to tell a tune without a wideband, or atleast EGT's... Go back to the dyno and pay for them to tune it for you. That may be your best luck.

Its currently my DD, I have a good platform now for mods(57trim), just waiting on money and a new DD. My stang must sell before I can do anything. Once it sells, hardpipes, intercooler, an ebc (havnt decided on brand) and I think some fuel mods. That should keep me busy for a little while...

2.3L turbo 'fordbanger', those things are SICK! I went to a tractor pull and those crazy rednecks had one jammed in a tractor. WOW. He competed in the v8 class and took home the trophy.

I guess you didnt read the bhg sarcasm, STOP TALKING ABOUT BHG! The poor lad has a cooling problem. Its getting pretty ridiculous people are jumping the gun. Go back to the basics, no reason to spend good money on a topend when its a bloody 5 dollar cap and a .10 hose clamp. The guy that I...

with those dyno numbers, its pretty much telling me you are blowing out the spark.

ohh yeah, that turbo sounds a little big for your goals bud. Lag must be stupid ridiculous, I dont think that turbo is even in its efficiency range(where is that smart guy that loves to post compressor maps when you need him???) It sounds like your setup is good for BIG POWER, your trying to...

do you have the dyno sheets(better have wideband results)? Im with starscream on that one. Those injectors need to go back to the rx7 you took them from. (just giving you crap dude) Those injectors should be good to atleast 700hp but you are trying to tune them for 450ish?? That sounds like...

copper is usually the cheap ass sparkplugs. Most people running high boost go ahead and replace plugs every oil change or every other oil change. NGK's, densos and autolites are usually the norm. check to make sure you get the right heat range as well, do a search on sparkplugs here to find...

DUDE, YOU ARE THE MAN! I checked my air filter, I found a rats nest underneath it...(I live in the country) cleaned it up a wee bit and see what happens. Luckily they didnt eat it, or I would have traps all over that 7m :icon_evil. I will check codes later tonight.

With my experience with small block chebbies and SBF's, I was able to save the bottom end a couple of instances because I could see the oil pressure gauge flutter ever so slightly, I dont know if the electric gauge has a 'signal filter' or not thats why I have a fascination with aftermarket...

also, once you get wideband, make sure your using copper sparkplugs and also make sure the gap is around the .028 range. If you dont want to spring for the wideband, go to a dyno shop and have them tune it for you, its pricey though. Good luck brother and nice mods. ohh yeah, make sure you...
