    Attention- I am not dead. Operation "Partshauler" is complete. Had to rebuild the tranny, and she now runs great. All cash will now be rediverted BACK into Project "git'er dun". That is all. for now.

    Cracks me up...

    It was a MAFT basic, and as you can see from the video, it wasn't installed on the car. There was no air metering at all.

    Cracks me up...

    Well, it felt like i could have driven the car up to the store, with no hood, bumper, fenders, intake, exhaust, afm, or IC system. Just the turbo, hanging of the side of the block, whistling with the revs.

    Cracks me up...

    So many threads on how guys cant get their cars to run... I cant kill mine! I pulled my car out of the garage, and removed my entire exhaust, entire intake and intercooler system, AND the MAFT system, to sell them. Then i realized i'd never be able to push the car back up into the garage...

    Update! I have not even touched my supra in a couple months! how's that for progress? I got a little sidetracked on another small project- operation: Parts hauler... I've been busy rebuilding the transmission in this thing. Once done, I can apply funding back where it needs to go- the Supra...

    Orion's Projekt: Alexis

    Thanks for checking mine out. And to celebrate- I'm going to go update my post! PS- If I could do my poly's over again, I would have gotten them in black. Black ones are graphite impregnated,= less chance of squeaking.

    New car, new project. Asking for advice on my build.

    What color are the injectors? If they are upgraded, they may be a different color. OEM's are black. Very few upgraded injectors are plug n play- are the harness clips orginial, or do they look like they were spliced in?

    I used a knockoff Tial for 5+ yrs, and it still works like new... but, I guess that doesn't help you much...

    A blank cover. Can't remember if you turn CW or CCW to advance timing, but you'll know as soon as you try- the idle will either go up or down.

    The fewer belts/ accessories you have connected, the less chance of a whine, so...? Yes, your cps is off. Try loosening the hold-down bolt and advancing it a bit. If you don't have enough room to advance it to get ~800rpm, then you are one tooth off.

    #1. Did you tighten up the turbo oil feed and drain lines? That's thge big one that people overlook. Sounds good, but whats that whining sound?
