    88 7mge issues HELP!!!!!

    No. I really think they are a waste of money, in a certain way. Although I was thinking of many spark plug ads that claim power gains. BS.

    torque converter

    The book says 2500, and I haven't seen it. Mine is also about 1900. That will cut about 2.667 60' with a turbo that comes in about 2500, and is pulling hard at 3500.

    88 7mge issues HELP!!!!!

    That they are. The last 7MGE I saw run rich, black smoke and all, it had the airflow meter tampered with. The owner loosened the spring on the door because he read it on the internet.

    what BOV? (CT26-57 trim)

    The part number in the review section was for Saab and Porsche. Is the Audi speced bypass valve the same unit? The Saab is the heavy duty unit. I use that one with my T04E 57.

    Old school hks sport turbo

    While I have seen some good dyno's posted with this turbo, I have also seen many posts like this one from dissatisfied users over the unit being a POS.

    Boost problems!

    It depends on how loose the hose is. I could get to 10 psi with my clamps loose.

    7MGE and TMGTE fan blade?

    Not only that, but the 7M Cressida has a standard duty and heavy duty from Toyota. At least they used to have it.

    Question about a Group A ct26

    Why not just get a bolt on? Bolt on meaning it bolts to the elbow/downpipe pattern and the stock manifold. You will need lines to go with it, but still. You will have way more power. For example, I went 18 mph faster than stock with my Boss Jr with exhaust and a boost controller to hold 14 psi.

    The Luxocruiser 3650 lb sled thread

    I cut a notch in the heat shield so I could reclock the water line that is too long. I didn't like it over the power steering resevoir, not that it hurt anything. Now the extra length is under the intake hose. Which is clearly visible, just not in this side shot.

    Weird 'miss' when i start car while engine is warm

    My VSV froze, which isn't too uncommon for the VSV's. It is behind the alternator. I did a backyard test instead of an electrical check because of the location. I let it sit 15 minutes where it had trouble with the restart and rough idle. I pulled off the vacuum line to the regulator, and it had...

    The SME for the trans section has a THM350 on his Supra. It seems like IPT also does the conversions.

    88 Supra Rebuild (Trans swap 1/18/11)

    Rust free Supras.....*sigh* Did you plan on redoing the engine, as in head work? I know that you know it would make the job easier.

    why do people run without timing covers?

    The radiator should have a draincock. Drain a little bit of coolant below the thermostat, then use the hose clamp pliers on the hose. Of course, if you don't own that tool....It is going to spill out. Taking off the timing cover should only take a couple of minutes. I would like to see a picture...

    What wastegate do I need?

    It seems like if it is a T4 manifold, the mount up will be universal. I will follow the thread for the answer.
