    Fastest A340E 1/4 mile times...

    The older A340E had stiffer accumalators. Much firmer shifts.

    Auto-off features not working - Headlights, radio, etc

    What year is your car? I don't remember the radio staying on. Does the dome light come on when you open the door?

    So you are on the stock converter yourself. I will be too for a while.

    At what point do I need a tune?

    That was only answering his question of what is stock boost. And your point should be taken by all of those wanting to crank it up on a stock car.

    On the topic of seat belts and safety

    I never saw a customer charged for one either, and I changed a few over the years. I think it is US law that the seatbelt has a long law. I don't remember the time, but is like the cat. If Champion says the belt isn't available anymore, then Toyota isn't required to change it any more...

    Fastest A340E 1/4 mile times...

    Yes. I added the drjonez manual boost controller. I went 15.5 @92 with the HKS downpipe and turbo exhaust. That run was about 12-13 psi. At least that is where I set the controller. In an old Supra article, shaeff has links, TRD put together a car with HKS EVC, PFC F-CON, FCD, full...

    7M BHG repair and rebuild

    I have a Fel-pro headgasket unused in my garage. Good choice. It looks disturbingly (in a good way) like the Toyota gasket. I wouldn't be suprised if Fel-pro supplies Toyota of North America with them.

    Oil Flow vs Pressure

    What oil will give you zero pressure at idle? And who is suggesting zero psi at idle? As long as there is oil on the bearing, then yes, there is oil on the bearing. And yes, for your question, you don't want the oil too fast. Which is why there are pressure specs. Then why do you think...

    Just who exactly is riding in your rear seats?

    Still all stock trans. I was thinking about shimming it until I at least pick up the IPT valve body. It was warm and humid for October. The track is scheduled to be open the first two Saturdays of November. I will be back just to see if it will go faster in better air. The 14.88 time.

    Turbo Size psi/volume

    I don't see a problem as long as it is accurate.

    Oil Flow vs Pressure

    What flows better? Pancake syrup that has just been nuked, or straight from the fridge? Now, why do you want oil tha does not flow as well, giving you more pressure? You are still stuck on pressure. If your engine is aged, the bearings on the crank open up. This will lower the resistance to...

    TH350 swap or not.

    I would think that a local trans shop, or chain would have a builder. The store may or may not let you bring your own parts. That is when you ask the builder if he does side jobs. A builder, not installer.

    On the topic of seat belts and safety

    They aren't warrantied for life. Your dealer and local Toyota region did what is called good will warranty. They don't want you leaving with the original belt not fixed because of money, then getting in a car wreck. Guess who the jury will side with?

    On the topic of seat belts and safety

    Seat belts that don't lock when the pendelum is bumped kill people in certain accidents. I bought a Yukon for the car seat.
