    What did you do to your supra today? Pics

    Why did you take the elbow off the turbo? You don't think taking off three accessable 14 nuts is easier than the one bolt?

    backfire during shifting under boost

    If you vent to atmosphere and don't recirculate the metered air, a good amount of HC's go into the exhaust where the gasoline can explode.

    how to raise the idle speed?

    Add a locking cable to the cabin. Pulled all the way out, it would idle at 950, or where ever you need it. Or limit the spring return of the pedal. This is assuming you aren't going to use a stand alone.

    jdm vs usdm 7mgte

    The engine is no different, hon-duh boy. The cars are different because their steering wheel is on the wrong side and they don't have a NOx requirement.

    Is that all you have to offer? Tis true what I said. I myself won't strip the car either. I have it for a reason.

    ITBs and emmission/vac system design and questions

    This is my comment. You can not altar a car in any state. Replacement parts have to get certified for sale as emission compliant. If you didnt' know that. If you go to CARB and prove it, then you can have it legally.

    What are good brakes

    Lose weight. The car has big brakes that work really good. They would be better if your car was 500 lbs lighter.

    A stupid pully question

    The underdrive pulley which you shouldn't use on a car where the pulley is integrated into the damper, spins the accessories slower. This lowers parasitic drag on the engine.

    Smoke, smells, suggestions to where to start trouble shooting?

    I have seen them smoke a few minutes. If you put your foot in the floor, it will clear up much quicker.
