:) glad you got it figured out, bro. make sure that car stays in good tune! -shaeff

check the alternator wiring. it takes quite a bit to blow the fusable link. -shaeff

stock headgaskets can hold upwards of 400 horsepower easily, torqued down with some ARP's. it's all in the tune, really... to add to this thread, and some people might be surprised that i did this, but i still don't regret it, and my car still hasn't let me down: i've got the whole JDM...

did you even read my post? the link that was provided for you is right in my sig. it says **check your codes** i can't help you if you won't help yourself... -shaeff

double check. if they're the same, then you should be good to go. if i remember right, two of the plugs matched on the 89+ harness, but one did not, and trust me, it won't run with it unplugged. just doublecheck everying before you go through the hastle of hooking it all up. you'll save...

check the codes. use the link in my sig. i'm betting you have a boost leak though... check all your piping connections. -shaeff

you're using a '91 ECU in an '89? are the connector plugs the same color? if not, you're going to have WAY more trouble than you anticipate. the engine harness must match the year of the chassis of the car. -shaeff

someone say remove the factory alarm? post #4: http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?p=1515#post1515 -shaeff

if you can't get any more adjustment out of it, you installed the CPS improperly. try this: also, remember when you set the Ignition timing, that you must have t1 and e1 jumpered in the diagnostic block. :) -shaeff

your numbers are off, as are LEGNA's. i hit 289rwhp/ 295ft lbs tq. at 15 psi on the stock turbo, which has shaft play and chipped impeller blades... on a mustang dyno. -shaeff

i experimented with the boost control today. the wastegate snaps open and closes a tiny bit after the solenoid is off. (max boost reached) other than the TPS tip in problem, and not having tuned the car yet, it works very well. no spikes, it jumps right up to 13.5psi and stays there. i'll be...

i'm with the rest of the guys. i made 289rwhp 295tq at 15psi on the stock turbo, and mine has chipped impeller blades and shaft play... you should be quite a bit above that on 1 bar. if i had a decent stock turbo on my car, i'd have easily reached 300rwhp. -shaeff

eric, let me know when you get that car running and drivable/broken in! -shaeff

make sure you drill out or bypass the j-tube. otherwise you'll run TOO rich. (you'll be running rich anyway with the stock base fuel pressure and an upgraded pump, but the car should still be drivable.) -shaeff

i did the same as tubbie, but i don't suggest it. the stock pump is probably half dead, and is subject to failure at any given time. fuel starvation + boost = melted pistons. :( -shaeff

i can get quite a bit past 120mph with my 4.3 differential. :) besides, there aren't long enough roads where i live to get much past 120mph. i'll let the other dude win, and i'll see him in the trees around the next corner... haha. -shaeff

our cars are fast? ;) nice kill. -shaeff

i live for daily drivability with along with the ability to stomp on it and not have to wait for power. i like it on tap immediately. how many 1000hp + supras can be daily driven comfortably? i'm guessing not many. after i get my new turbo on and tuned, i should be over the 400whp threshold...

i'm having mine custom made by a guy in Red Hook. (next town over from me, about 5 miles away) he does good work. :) eric, check your PM. -shaeff

i <3 my 4.30 try searching on supraforums for dr. jonez's post. it was way before this place was hacked some time ago. -shaeff
