    Conspiracy theorists, what is your highest level of education?

    9-11 was a conspiracy. It was conspired by the Al-Queada group. Sorry, that isn't what you wanted here.

    Gearing vs turbo

    R154 has a first gear ratio of 3.25:1 which is very typical in a street car. edit: yeah, a taller gear will put a heavier load on the engine.

    New Tires

    That isn't true, and 245 is only the sidewall width when installed and inflated but not loaded. The problem you have is your contact patch is smaller than a tire with a 225 sidewall. If you are still using a 50 series, your speedo is low. And then your odometer has a false reading of low too...

    emissions advice

    If you set the piggy back to smaller injectors with out using smaller injectors, the pulse width increase making you even richer. Suggestion is to list the rest of the emission trace. You have way to much fuel for your upgrades. And you might have other problems.

    Need advice on troubleshooting battery drain

    Not hardly. I just have a lot of experience doing electrical/electronic work specifically on Toyota systems. Did I ask a question? No. I told you if you don't know how to use a multimeter then just don't do it. It isn't worth fucking up the meter, or your car. But hey, no problem, you are on...

    I need advice about a persistant miss

    I have driven Toledo (home) to Denver (transplanted home) many times. It is a nice drive in the Supra. It is a suck ass drive in the 5.0.

    Did we really go to the moon?

    And like most conspiracie theories, the conspiracy evidence usually will not hold a cup of water. Unless you want it to be true. Like the JFK morons.

    Did we really go to the moon?

    Mass X velocity = momentum A bb at 750 fps will break a window just as easily as a brick at 10 feet per second.

    walbro 255 pump ok?

    As for not doing something twice, that is the correct line of thinking. If you plan on a build up, do it now. With the other mods and precautions Jdub listed.

    ARG! OIL BURNING

    Your car burns oil as a normal part of 4 stroke internal combustion. I don't see half a liter in 50km's though. That is 31 miles for the US crowd. You might have an external leak also. Or you had dilution for repeated short trips, making your dipstick read higher than what it really is. In...
