    maftpro or lexus afm????

    A manifold leak will raise the airflow meter reading. And it raises fuel pressure. Then the air flow meter meter reading will rise. If you alter the airflow reading to the ECU and make it think to more air is coming in, your mixture will richen. And eventually boost cut will be the result...

    A342 / 7MGTE discussions

    Makes sense with a smaller engine. The A341 for the LS had taller gearing.

    costs of machining the block

    Is that shop going to resurface the head also? Or reinstall it? The book calls for about 30 hours give or take. I dont remember exactly anymore.

    7M-GTE w/ 7M-GE ECU?

    Both cars run a cam position sensor. It is needed for both. The CPS is a part of the distributor on the 7MGE. You can not run a GE computer on a GTE. The ECU will not fire the sparkplugs right. The GTE uses a coil pack with three triggers, the GE with a distributor uses just one. The 7MGE...

    Gas Mileage?!?! Am I Alone?

    N/A block with turbo setup =)

    You dont need 2 knock sensors unless you use GTE electronics. Which is not required to bolt on a turbo.

    NA lsd

    You might consider caring a bit more if you ever sell the car. You will have many more miles indicated than you really have. Depending on how long you drive of course. Same axles. You will need GE driven gear and drive gear.

    ugh valentines day

    Valentine was beheaded for banging another mans wife. Many versions, although I believe not to be true based on the holiday now, say he was beheaded for helping Christians. Although that is believable too. For the actual holiday, it is another pagan tradition that Catholics made into a holiday...

    OEM HG Question

    It isnt. The deck surface of the head and block must be flat. It doesnt have to have super smooth finish, just flat. No deep grooves you can hang a finger nail on. Or you will end up like so many other MA70 owners who "only did the head" or something like that and 4 months later have another...

    Missing

    It depends on the backfire. Is it a muffler explosion that is obvious, or just popping from the engine?

    For all the JDM 7MGTE owners...

    For those that really want what you see as a true jdm, you will need to swap to a 1JZ.
