    You know you're a Supra owner when...

    When guys in traffic notice your "Stealth BBK" (AP Callipers with the yellow logo painted black to hide em) point them out to their Wives/GF's and get all animated then look over and give the thumbs up! When you pull alongside a 40's Ford Street rod with tunnel rams in traffic and he's...

    Mines 65mm ID matched to my IC Piping and nope no lag at all and is running comfortably 18 psi to 7700 rpm.... Unless you're shooting for really big HP I don't believe a huge TB is needed.

    I just bought a catch can...

    AM: Condensation The Catch can should have a vapour/liquid seperator inside (flap with a lip) Hot Air/Oil comes in hits the cooler flap then seperates air goes back to the intake and liquids get "caught" in the can ;)
