    any of you guys got an hks ssqv on 8psi?

    The reason it blows off faster when shifting is because the rpms drop a lot faster whereas if you just let off the gas they go down slowly and more exhaust gases are still spinning the turbo.

    Lawsuit guidlines

    Go back to star bucks, buy another whatever-it-was-you-got, eat the glass and drink the shit, then wait for the abdominal pains to come, and go to the hospital... Have fun at court! Edit: This is a joke BTW, do not take this advise seriously ;).

    no power steering... any detrimental effects?

    Why didn't you just take the belt off at the time since your PS wasn't working anyways? It would have gave you back that robbed HP so the car could get up and go easier.

    My First Shot at Fiberglass

    A few months back I seen a custom supra gauge on sell at ebay similar to this, but not made outa fiberglass. It was kinda like a piece of plastic type material molded into the shape of the old cluster. It has all aftermarket gauges with it too, somewhere around 8-10 all told. It even had turn...

    Which oil do YOU use??

    Hell yeah! I'm all for wal-mart dynosaur oil! I've got an oil leak or three also ;). It stays pretty damn fresh because it leaks right back out in short order. Right after I do my rebuild and the engine is broken in, I'll be switching to Mobil 1 10W-30 FTMFW!

    any of you guys got an hks ssqv on 8psi?

    It was brand new when installed on my cousin's supra, and yes, it is the actual HK$ brand BOV. It is the newer generation that is non-adjustable. It was only ran on his car for like 100-200 miles. As soon as I took it off his car and put it on mine, it didn't surge. It wasn't the BOV to blame...

    I wonder if the customers are warned before they buy the injectors to read the topics on them?

    any of you guys got an hks ssqv on 8psi?

    I never heard mine leak when I had it on, but my turbo was pretty loud too. I was running stock boost with it and it was pretty damn high pitched. It would surge really bad on my cousin's car though :dunno: , sounded good, but not good for it.

    heater doesn't work

    Is your heater hose hooked up? Mine wasn't when I bought the car (still isn't) that's how I found out mine wasn't working.

    Ebay Turbo???

    The only turbo you should buy off of ebay is a name brand, and that's if ebay has the better deal on it all around (which I doubt).

    She's alive!!!!!

    Wow, I don't think I've seen a powdercoated engine block yet... I wonder if it would be feasable to ceramic coat the block, or would that mess things up with the block needing to expand a little for heat?

    Time for spark plugs.. what should I get?

    I vote for the autolite coppers, I'm rockin them, no probs here ;). Bosch suck ass, too much shit around the electrode to ignite the fuel correctly.

    help!! w/ install of hks ssqv

    If you are talking about the hole where the stock by-pass valve was hooked up on the 3000 pipe, then yes. Either that, or replace the 3k pipe completely. The hole on the accordian hose that plumbs into the other side of the by-pass valve needs to be re-routed to the hks ssqv. When you say "plug...
