    Has anyone else had this problem with their mk3?

    Yea, sounds like fuel cut...you likely have a boost leak...

    10 blade fan vs 7 blade fan

    Get that cheap clutch off of there! I bet it's already leaking oil... I have been through two of those cheapies...one went bad, and wouldnt lock up, causing the car to overheat, and the other seized completely... The Toyota fan clutch is worlds better as far as quality...it will last a long...

    HOT IC pipes and Intake manni

    I had to modify my stock heat shield to fit over my custom 3" downpipe...just cut the rear section out, and it seems to work fine.

    what do your parents do with you and your car?

    My mom thinks it's a huge waste of time and money, as does my dad... But they both think it's interesting...my mom RARELY rides in it (I get smacked if it even enters boost at all), my dad, however, doesn't have a problem with it, as he likes fast cars...keeps saying I need a newer sports car...

    Diamond or Starfire Pearl?!?!?

    I LOVE this color, in fact, I just posted about it in another thread on here... From what I understand, Diamond and Starfire Pearl both havet he same pearl "effects", but Starfire looks a lot whiter than the Diamond Pearl...I would probably go with the Starfire...my favorite color EVER.

    the strangest problem with my supra.....

    Yes, it could be your AFM...it also could be that your TPS wasn't installed/adjusted correctly. Are you sure you aren't thinking of turbo lag?

    Paint Ideas??

    Lexus Starfire Pearl for me: http://www.clublexus.com/forums/showthread.php?p=2089976#post2089976 I saw a Lexus with this color at a gas station a while back, it looked absolutely AMAZING at night with lights shining on it. I had to ask the owner what the name of the color was.

    TurboXS RFL Low-Boost Surging Problem.

    Maybe a vacuum leak, or bad BOV? I checked all of the vac lines to the BOV, and they are all free of any obstruction. :\

    TurboXS RFL Low-Boost Surging Problem.

    I just installed my 57 trim upgraded CT, and I am getting some compressor surge (flutter) when i boost very little (1-5psi) and let off I hear a fluttering...but if I boost to 10psi, the BOV blows off as it should... The BOV would blow-off perfectly when I was running the stock CT26...even at...

    Cheapest and Fastest Mods

    Stock head gasket is fine if the bock and head surfaces are in good shape, use ARP hardware, and torque to the ARP spec...just don't let the car run hot...and they last, even at above-stock boost levels. (Of course I'm assuming that a quality HG is used, not an eBay special.)
