If his car stalled from a bad alternator, that means the battery had to discharge, and the car would not restart, let alone crank over.

Well done.

You have a problem. Abnormal boost pressure leading to fuel shut off will not happen at 10 psi with a stock meter, let alone the larger Lex meter on a stock turbo.

Cervinis is a large dealer for late model and others. However, being a very low volume car, I doubt they build in advance like they do a foxbody Mustang.

As long as you know the GVWR on a vehicle placard is not the vehicle's weight. That is the curb weight plus what the car can carry.

This is a side issue, but I didn't know spark plug changes were hard.

The car isn't rated for rwhp from Toyota. Even 230-232 is not a hard fast number with variables like mechanical wastegate actuators and slippage of a torque converter.

Don't add to the circuit, or any circuit for that matter.

Come again? And spray the tap liberaly with WD40 or some other lubricant.

For the record, the car is designed to run about 210 degrees. The thermostat opens at 192. That isn't the temp it maintains, that is the minimum it maintains.

Sometimes the EPC has better pictures than the repair manual.

There is no shame in installing an large displacement LSx in a foxbody. Although some of my former stang banger brethren might have a problem with it.

Make them in aluminum. That is what Toyota did on the JZA80. Along with the hood and sport roof.

Thankfully, Toyota knows when you have an intake leak and stores 34 for your convience.

What type of settings does the HKS unit have? Often a boost controller will raise the limit, but it still functions like a mechanical actuator, bleeding as it builds to prevent a spike. And make sure you have the lines hooked up right, and are not bleeding to atmosphere.

Lots of people buy things strictly because of what it looks like. It is their money. There is no gain to facing front. If you get a new plenum that is larger, or shorter routing, that is useful.

Who?

I like my GReddy Profec B Spec 2. It does things a little different than what you are thinking in your head, but that doesn't mean it doesn't work right. You don't pick a psi, and go. You set duty cycle, and fine tune the variable with it. It isn't actually hard to do, just different. And PSI is...

I love the interwebs....

You mean you didn't drop a lit match in the hole to check? ;)
