Yes, I did- Mr. 'I drive an 80's car'. You gots a problem with traveling back in time? I hope not.

What he said, boost leak.

A part of your wiring harness may be shorted, like on the engine somewhere. That would cause the fuse to blow. ps- check the codes, and post them.

Your catch can setup seems wrong. The only time you'd get any crankcase air to go to it would be during boost, and since it's vented to ATM, that means its a boost leak. The air filter should come off, and that end of the can should go to the accordian. PS- why don't you just test the AFM as...

Toyota put them on so tight, that Chuck Norris had to use three fingers to loosen his. YES. I just made this a Chuck Norris thread.

Yeah, generally it takes more than 160 ft-lbs to break it loose. ...then again...some people just check and find that the bolt is missing...

I would guess it'll have good spool, and decent midrange power.

It looks pretty good, but honestly, i'd like to see even a bit more 'character'. It's a bit too close to stock looking.

Check the EFI fuse.

I vote machine down the front cover. If I'm not mistaken the cover can be slightly lower than the deck, but not vise versa, of course.

Maybe the pump's bearings are bad. You can try replacing the pump with the one from the 7MGE to verify the source. ps- oops- thought you were saying you just did the swap. my bad.

I think you might have to go to ARP for individual replacements.

Well, maybe that is part of the problem, and I have to put a check valve in line with the hose going up to- but before, the throttle body junction.

I started backing out of my driveway today, and immediately noticed that I was passing through a cloud of blue-white smoke from my exhaust. :aigo: Now my car has never burned any oil, but the cloud didn't seem quite blue, and didn't seem quite white. I decided to go for a quick ride, thinking...

I've heard of oil drives shearing, and their gears breaking. Maybe something there?

Yup- You can hit 300 with the aforementioned mods. And I think that intake and exhaust shoul'd be done first. They help every other upgrade, and give the biggest initial boost to power.

Did you remove any IC hoses to get to the air filter- or loosen the intake accordian at all?

I have had a HG where it was tight enough to keep coolant frm entering the combustion chambers, but the extreme pressure of compression and combustion would indeed push hot gases into the water jacket. An absence of oil 'milkshake' is not a conclusive indication of a good HG.

Sweet.

Check the connection point of the + cable to the starter, and the - cable to the block.
