If the TPS were set properly, you shouldn't see a code 51 at idle. Loosen the adjusting screws and rotate it until the code 51 goes away at idle. Or use the procedure in the TSRM: http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/TSRM/MK3/manual.aspx?S=FI&P=101

Folks, with the MAFT Pro and speed density setup, it CANNOT BE THE BOV. It's simply not possible. If the BOV is stuck open, the MAP sensor still reads the air correctly. If the BOV is stuck closed, the MAP sensor still reads the air correctly. I can remove the BOV and plug the hole, or for...

New seals from Toyota. They aren't that expensive, and they will fix the problem for another 20+ years.

Sensor can be mounted directly into the manifold if you want, but a line to it works just as well. This is how I have mine setup. I'm willing to bet the code 51 is the problem. Have you run through the adjustment procedure for the TPS? Code 51 means the ECU thinks the throttle plate is open...

Warning....

The temp sensor can be anywhere post intercooler, technically, but it doesn't work well in areas where there are lots of heat. The SD sensor (It's actually called a MAP sensor) has to be post-throttle body. Otherwise it would ... well, run really rich when the throttle plate was closed. Damn...

Wouldn't matter. SD setup means it calculates the air from the pressure in the manifold and a temperature sensor. So unless he's losing air between the intake manifold and the cylinder head... Or there is something wrong with the pressure sensor. Which one are you using, and where is it...

Get a good camera and post lots of pics. There are plenty of people here that can point you in the right direction.

Next logical question... any codes?

Meh, I'm a bigger fan of boost. Low end torque is useless with any kind of traction control, and turbo's put out the power where you can actually put it on the road.

If you think THAT looks like a transformer, check out this!

Thread cleaned. Keep it friendly, folks. Don't make me clean it up again, I hate having to babysit my threads.

How many miles have you put on it since the ECU was last reset? I have this same problem whenever I reset the ECU (or disconnect the battery) but it usually goes away after a couple miles on the road.

Nah, in the USA they do this to Camaros and Firebirds all the time. We're not that special. ;)

You would have to lose the targa top. If you think THAT's tough, remember, frameless windows too... :D

If you HAVE to screw with the doors, do it right and go with gull wings. They beat lambo doors like a read headed stepchild. Not going to be easy to do, though...

WTF? Is that a man in a bikini and high heels in the background on the poster? ;) Good work on the oilpan. Is this going to affect the location of the drain plug?

You're probably right, I have no idea who is the bigger sheep lovers in that part of the world. :) Seriously, I just pasted it the way it showed up in my inbox.

lol - that's not quite a factory turbo anymore. :D

An Aussie, a sheep, and a dog were survivors of a terrible plane crash. They found themselves stranded in the outback. After being there awhile, they got into the habit of going to a ridge every evening to watch the sun go down. One particular evening, the sky was red with beautiful...
