    DDP Leak Solution Ideas (PICS)

    Only problem I see with that Nash, is over time the expansion will crush the gasket leaving an inevitable gap. I would be suprised if silicon could withstand the heat of the housing. Bends in the metal will allow for expansion and when the metal cools the metal should still have enough...

    DDP Leak Solution Ideas (PICS)

    Its the same sound, The only difference is pre or post turbo. Its the same engine, One is just usually louder as the waste gate dump is usually never muffled and very short. I agree with a regular down pipe, the sound of the waste gate is blended more as it is put into the same pipe, Thats...

    Chunks' Build

    I'm up in Port Jefferson. Not much to update with all the snow we've been getting. Its too damn cold to do anything. Right now the cars turn key, supra stick is installed/functioning smoothly, un-tuned 10psi 10.3A/f's across the board. Ran a buddy, estimating the cars in high 12's. Still need...

    Help with HID Decission!

    Yea still i remember them being like ~300 for some reason.... Ill have to pick up a set. Hows the cutoff line with them in the E-codes? Were you using the bulbs with the shields on the bottom of them? I moreso want to see pictures of the light output then anything else.

    DDP Leak Solution Ideas (PICS)

    Did you buy the downpipe from BIC? Ive herd they seal up pretty well when the exhaust gets hot and expands. Your not going to hear the waste gate when the cutout is open because its the same sound. The open waste gate is basically just an open exhaust leak, when you open the dump your making a...

    problem after big intercooler install

    Cooler air would be more dense, if the change was large enough it would lean the mixture slightly causing the need for more correction. After the tccs adjusts it would be same as before in short time.

    Drag Wheel pics!

    I'm probrably going to use flares on the rear or something to widen the quarter to make it work. I want to stay as stock as possible but I'm going to do what I have to do to make it work. I'm tired of these cars bieng a "top end" car. There's only a select few cutting sub 1.6 60's.

    problem after big intercooler install

    Do a boost leak check and re check all the couplers. When ever you have a new problem the first thing to check is the last thing you touched.

    Help with HID Decission!

    Hmm, why do i remember the E-codes bieng so much more expensive then that? H4 retrofit HID bulbs in those housings work good? Anyone running that setup with some pictures out there? My Headlights barely light up anything.........

    Drag Wheel pics!

    As of now im running BFG 255 drag radials on sawblades, but i want to run the MT ET street radial 275/50-15. Those will fit on 8's but eventually i want to go bigger, maybe a 28" with a little more width, not to mention some fender well modifications so they fit. Ive decided on that tire for now...

    CPS question

    Sounds like timing, Throw a dab of white out on the zero line on the crank pulley, Makes a world of difference trying to find it when its light out.

    Cobra Wheels on a Supra???

    The 95 style is the one im looking for, Those weights show my concern. Although the rear wheels (welds most likely) are going to be FAR lighter then sawblades, i still wana shed some weight from the front. As stated it seems kinda light for a wheel with tire. Maybe a recount? Maybe weight...

    Disconnecting auto cable for dyno runs - issues?

    As usual on point with the best answer possible. Before I got my tranny controller I drove with no tranny computer. L becomes 1st, 2 becomes 3rd, D becomes overdrive, lockup is never achieved cause of no signal.
