    When the fourstroke Otto engine was devolped, the flywheel was added to help the engine through nonproductive strokes. But since an engine with more than 4 cylinders is never in a non productive stroke....

    Quick Q about "necessity" of 12V Fuel Pump Mod!?

    Call me crazy, but I think we will see that the 9-12 volts is accounted for in TCCS, when 3p and brutus finish their work. If you need to do this mod, you need to do all of it. It doesn't make the pump last longer, it is for tuning alone. More wattage to the pump doesn't make it last longer.

    550 installation questions

    What do you mean by the easiest? Your concern should be the proper way. Crimped, and fill the crimp with minmal solder. Toyota explicitly says to do it that way. And then heat shrink.

    Backpressure?

    Poodles with a good post! You don't want any backpressure, but to big, and you lose velocity. Such as more than 60-65mm on a stock 7M.

    The Luxocruiser 3650 lb sled thread

    My DrJonez manual boost controller is on the way. Next year I will have results of running near stock boost levels, and 13 psi from the CT26. No need to go higher, the turbo doesn't work good enough at that restriction.

    A/C Help

    Another common thing on A/C is a leak in the condensor. We have an intercooler, so that will help, but stones don't need to be going fast when you are hauling down the highway to cause a leak. The ASE or 609 certitified tech shoulnd't have a problem finding the leak. Worse case scenario is as...

    For those thinking about removing powersteering...

    The Supra rack was meant to have that hydraulic push. Get a manual rack and fab it up if you want to drop weight.

    Vacuum (mmHg) at idle correct?

    17-22" is the rule of thumb. It will vary depending on the engine wear, altitude, ignition timing, etc.
