    What are your Goals for SILV '07?

    Knowing your car, you would have loved some of the Celica Supras. A few were just fantastic. My goal is to be in the US so I can go again.

    What does ECON button do?

    If you use less gas, the cooling effect will not happen at all. Since we don't have them here, I will speculate. It cycles the compressor less often, or not at all. Maybe that is what Jeff meant by less gas.

    Fastest stock turbo 1/4 times!

    Try lots of weight reduction. An upgrade CT is not a stock turbo. I don't want to mix words.

    College football Thread 9/16

    WV is good. They are still in my top four. The SEC is too good of a confrence for anybody to run the table. I still think Texas is really good. I don't think USC is as tough as I thought they would be. ND is still over rated. I think the Mountaineers would chew up ND like they were 6th grade girls.

    New Toyotas take often 10-20k to break in. No reason to increase that.

    Headgasket coating question

    Beat that horse. What is funny is I used the search function for cometic to read if there was any negative feedback on it. Cometic gave me 5 pages of results and I read that response dozens of times.

    SILV 06 Thoughts and some pics *56k*

    325 is also attainable on a 7M with bolt-ons and a CT26. Is it too early to think about SILV '07? I am ready.

    Overheat

    ARP hardware and MHG won't help if you overheat an engine. Improving the cooling system will.

    Inj. Duty Cycle?

    I can not confirm anything on 1JZ engine control. It was not sold in the US, and there is/was no training. I don't think there would be massive differences though.

    Overheat

    As long as the original author realizes it is his fault, and not a design flaw. When you rupture a hose, it is time to pull over and call the tow truck.

    Inj. Duty Cycle?

    You are posting in the wrong section. The harder or softer you drive, the more the table will change. Oxygen sensor feedback is an emission function that keeps the catalytic converter in its optimum range.

    Overheat

    No overtemp sensor. It isn't a diesel powerplant that has no operator. You lifted the head of the block when it overheated. Well, probably.

    Pre-lube Suggestions

    Lubriplate 105 is what the proffessionals, such as myself, use for lube on the bearing surfaces. Nothing on the cylinder wall. You are trying to seat the rings, not lube them.

    Speed sensor

    Never read that before. Pulling the EFI fuse does not fix a car.

    Indiana and Georgia, what the hell was that?

    Quick lock button question.

    Photos sure help. That is the door lock bezel. Not a door lock.

    Inj. Duty Cycle?

    The TCCS engineers decided it based on VE of the engine, and injector size. Under what circumstances? The ECU fuel trim is going richer trying to correct what it sees as lean. You have a turbo 7MGE? Stock injectors are about 320cc GE or 440cc GTE Fuel trim is an attempt to compensate for...

    Fastest stock turbo 1/4 times!

    That is my point. HKS and Cartech used a T04 upgrade, intercooler and pig rich FCon to run 104-105, and he says he went 111?

    Auto Transmissions Question

    You are not supposed to put any car in forward when going backwards. It is called shock load, and can damage driveline components. New cars that you don't feel anything have slippage built into them. Slippage feels nice, but sucks for longetivity. Dont't do it.
