I highly reccomend the K&N FIPK, it has much more surface area than the Apex unit. Also, I reccomend www.horsepowerfreaks.com They simply have THE BEST customer service and support. They'll match prices too! About the "drilling the afm" That is a pretty bad description of what you...

I'll bet the aftermarket has something better and cheaper out there.

We have low oil pressure at idle. This is ok because we have 29 bearings in the motor plus a turbo sucking lots of lube from the pump. Once the motor reaches 1500-2000, however, the pressure should begin to climb up to the relief valve's set rpessure of 40 psi. With proper tolerances, you...

Agreed.

well, reach 4500 without flooring or boosting, and see if it still whines. If it does, then it is ot the turbo. if it is silent...

WOW, apparently, they are somewhere around $600.00!!!!! I'd just pick your desired stall RPM and go aftermarket. To replace it, you'll need to drop the tranny, and remove the six bolts that hold it to the flex plate. Not too hard, just two simple steps. ;)

Is it only there whilst boosting?

I love you guys! ;) I just say that the switch is there from the factory, it's free, and it was DESIGNED to turn electric fans on and off. Why not use it?

Firm believer of MAFT here.

Maybe a "splash screen" but yeah, very cool indeed.

1Tuffsupra, What you are saying is very true as far as numbers go. But Steve is right. BTW, my friend greg runs 1.6 60 ft in a front drive civic hatch... when they put water out, I go around it, and heat up street tires dry. the water box works best for treadless/ drag radial tires. but stock...

Man I love the DDP.... The exhaust sounds great too! ;)

would you like part numbers and prices for your local toyota dealership? ;) wow, lots of different sizes. No prices, but if you call with those part numbers, they should be pretty cheap.

simple AFPR is the best way to go.

Agreed. The AC fan uses the temp switch on the thermostat neck to turn on the auxiliary fans when the ac is on, AND when the temp is over 160-170. If you use this ground for a simple relay to control your fan Then the fan will turn on only when the temperature reaches 165 degrees or so. I have...

Good lip...

Rings... Or the compressor seal is leaking. I'd get a mechanical vaccum gauge and use it to diagnose the condition of your motor. There's a tech page around here that tells how to read a vaccum gauge to tell if your valve stem seals are leaking, an intake manifold leak, worn rings, etc. A comp...
