I believe I read on club3g.com (I also own a 3g Eclipse GT) that a mustang dyno reflects more towards real world driving conditions where they take into account that no Piece of information used when tuning your car is going to be "perfect" like a dyno jet does. That being said, a mustang dyno...
I would def. get a downpipe with an integrated elbow (doesn't really matter what brand. They all give similar gains, that is to say, a HELL of a lot more power over a stock elbow with an aftermarket downpipe). I would then worry about hardpipes, BOV and IC. And then get your boost gauge hooked...
If you decide to get a mechanical oil pressure gauge, don't you need to tap into that sending unit somehow? I will probably be getting a mechanical gauge and am not sure on how to tap into it. Which would be easier, the electrical or mechanical. And in your opinion, which would be the better way...
Assuming that you haven't alread bought the new turbo, I would use that money to prep the block and head (possibly get new or have the stocker piston and rods freshened up w/new bearings and all). I would then put a good MHG on (HKS stopper) w/ARP STUDS.
The turbo you want to use on your tired...
You may want to plan for that on one of you days off work, it sounds like that's what's going to need to be done to fix this problem. Trust me, I wouldn't half ass this fix. You may find some temporary fix that one of these guys will offer, but when it's all said and done, a new gasket will be...
Is there a hole in the pan itself? Or does it look like it's leaking around where the oil pan bolts onto the block? You may want to check into your local car parts store for an oil pan gasket.
I have a cooleze megamouth downpipe and so does my cousin, no complaints here as to the performance gains, drives like a completely different beast since this has been put on. Loud? Oh yeah, this is a loud downpipe, especially with a test pipe and no resonators. The only thing that may not be...
I would go with the maftpro as there are a lot of ppl on here running it so finding someone to help you trouble shoot with it will be no problem (and trust me, you WILL need some type of help with any piggyback) I would still go with 550's just to be on the safe side. Why spend so much money on...
An oil catch can is designed to 'catch' the blow by off of the two top nipples on the cam covers (they then run into the throttle body and accordian hose of the turbo, or the equivilant of that in your case)
The blow by generally cause power robbing carbon deposits into the intake manifold and...
Before you decide to up the boost I would consider buying some insurance for the car by getting a MHG (nothing too expensive if you don't plan on making more than 300 whp, once most people get there though, they want more ;) ) and making sure the head and block have the proper RA (roughness...
As long as you removed the sensor in the AFM before you cleaned it out you should be ok, but as nick stated, don't touch the actual sensor. If you did, you will most likely be looking at a new sensor. If that happens, I would go with speed density and say screw the AFM. But that's just my...
On another note, you may want to look into cooling for your car once you decide on what all performance stuff you want. I would look into getting a two row aluminum radiator (i believe almost aftermarket AL rads for the supra are 2 row). You may also want to get an electric fan for this, like...
I bought my '88 hardtop turbo 5 spd for 1650.00, the kid wanted 2k, lol. My cousin got his '87 targa turbo 5 spd for 1k... lucky bastard, all it needed was a new HG, plus his is leather whereas mine is cloth.
