    Cylinder head scratch

    New Turbo Install: Lags & Won't Boost

    I would look at the wastegate and arm and not just the actuator function. Also, that turbo will not respond like a CT26, which I thought would be common knowledge. I don't see how that is possible. That is also normal of mechanical actuators. They open before the limit. And if the limit...

    Shifting into D doesn't show you anything. Good luck.

    Fuel Pump/No power to relay area

    For the record, the default position of the fuel pump relay is 12V. All you have to do is disconnect the switching portion of the relay that would turn it to the resisitor.

    Supra Randomly Lost Power and Shut Off After Being Driven Hard

    White Smoke on start-up, but not afterwards

    Yep, the seals. The smoke quits after running. But as it cools, it is pushed in from the low pressure area forming. You can see it with a bore scope, just to make sure you don't waste a lot of time pulling the head off.

    Lean, bucking and no power

    Supra Randomly Lost Power and Shut Off After Being Driven Hard

    Nah. It gives the air O2 a chance to catch up with the HC. But it can still cause trouble if they are out of sync.

    Automatic Transmission no reverse

    Manual or low 1 means you are not putting it in drive. Put it to the bottom and see what it does. If you can't fix or read a clutch application chart, the internet is not the place to get your car fixed.

    Differential Whining on Acceleration

    You might need a matched set. You need to take some measurements.

    Pull the shift lever to the bottom and drive it.

    #2 Rod Bearing Failure

    Sounds kind of like a select fit bearing issue.

    I assumed (foolish me) his fluid and fluid supply are fine.

    Differential Whining on Acceleration

    Time for a diff tear down to set the pinion depth and backlash. Yeah, you will get a new bearing and set preload. It isn't hard to do, but you need specific tools and to know how to do it.
