    Misfire @ Idle

    Arpus - Are your coils new from the dealer or you mean newer used set? I have new coils from Toyota and all the hi-power guys run just a DLI and they have no miss whatsoever. If you are on a standalone, get a set of 1ZZ coils and run those. You can run a .040 gap in boost with those suckers...

    How did you do the retorque? Back off and tighten or just tighten? Where is Ian when you need him!

    Fresh rebuilt R154...Synthetic?

    It is simple. On a fresh rebuild, you want all the parts to rub against each other to wear in properly. It is not recommended to use synthetic on a new engine build and it is the same for a gearbox. You don't want all the extra additives because it hampers the break-in process. Redline MT-90...

    1jz/Stinger wont start on warm start up?

    The cold start map looks like it needs to be tuned. Yes, I know you said warm start but that is all taken care of in the "Cold Start/Warm Up Enrichment" map. Call Aaron, he has a basemap for the Stinger.

    Fresh rebuilt R154...Synthetic?

    Crap man. Is it a common problem on the 7M's for the bolts to run loose on the exhaust side? Devin just had the same problem. I checked the head studs on my motor numerous times on the stand because of my OCD with that stuff. Plus I don't plan on boosting until break-in and retorque...

    O crap. All the expansion from the heat made it lift? I would assume you were using ARP head studs and did a retorque. The block was rough when you put the Head gasket down?

    Am I missing something or was the head gasket good?

    I have a Koyo radiator. Are you keeping the fan clutch? What fan setup are you running?

    O crap. That's pretty hot. How did it happen? I saw something about a blockage but I didn't really see any other post about it.
