    Dual outlet vs. single outlet... which is quieter and which has a cleaner sound?

    The title says it all. I'm looking for a new muffler, I think I may pickup a Borla. The part I'm not sure about is whether a dual tip (I'd prefer the exhaust to look pretty much stock) is any quieter or if the sound is any cleaner. I'd like to hear from those of you who've had the chance to...

    writeup: MAFT Pro install for 7M-GE

    EDIT: Please post ALL questions, comments and problems HERE. I'm going to post a clean thread with all the info needed to install and setup the MAFT Pro using a LS-1 3.5" MAF with 7M-GE electronics. The LS-1 MAF is more than large enough to feed a N/A without any noticeable restriction. I may...

    Question about catch can contents

    I've got a question for those of you with a catch can installed. How much condensation (not oil) do you see in your catch can in a week? My car's my DD, and I finished replacing my HG a week ago. I've got around 3-4 tablespoons worth of watery condensation in my catch can. It doesn't smell at...

    Hatch weatherstrip installation

    Hey guys, I'm at work and can't look at it any closer right now... does the weatherstrip just press into place or am I going to need to take off some panels to get it in?

    Acrylic and oil...

    Hey guys, I've been toying for a while with different ideas for catch cans. The oil filter relocation kit I'm running right now blocks up too quickly... works great, but if it's not watched VERY closely it causes issues. So, I've been thinking of using some of the acrylic stock I have...

    Testing the TPS

    Hey guys, I'm testing my TPS right now. The test results fit the specified results listed in the TSRM.... BUT, when I heat the TPS up with a hair dryer and test the resistence between E2 and and VTA and I slowly close the throttle from full open to full closed I get mad spikes all over the...

    88 NA will idle. Won't Run. Code 51.

    I've got an '88 NA. The car died on me on the highway. I'm getting a code 51. Don't have tools to test it, but I suspect it's the TPS. The car will idle. The idle is semi-erratic, but not very. Is the TPS the only thing that could cause this or is the AFM or possibly the ignition coil suspect?

    Blue CC Temp Display!

    Hey guys, I'm working on another member's interior electronics so I decided that while I was doing his I'd redo my CC. It was a pain in the ass! And *NO* I did not use any colored film to get the display blue. The 7 segment units I used are made by Liteon, as far as I could find they make the...

    Clutch going out? Or something else?

    Hey guys, I've noticed since I got my Supra that in my lower gears (ie 1, 2 and 3rd) I loose acceleration after a certain RPM. The RPM keep gaining steadily, but the power's not making it to the ground. Starting from a stop I'll loose acceleration around 3000 - 4000 RPM. 2nd, I'll loose it at...

    Infinity Basslink II.... my impressions and some questions

    Hey guys, I recently got an Infinity Basslink II for my Supra.... got a KILLER deal on it! I've listened to both the original Basslink and (obviously) the Basslink II in my car. The II sounds 100X better than the original.... none of the muddy sound the original often produced (I'm not the only...

    Head Gasket.... going but not gone.... need advice.

    Hey guys, I did try searching this, both here and on SF. Here's the situation: My Supra is my DD, when I drive on the highway for 10 minutes or longer my car starts pushing coolant out of the overflow. This does not occur while driving locally or just for brief periods. I've just changed the...

    Tein SS, how are yours lasting?

    I've seen quite a few posts about people's initial thoughts of these coilovers, but how well do you like them now that they've been on your car for a while? Are they holding up well? Are there any problem, common or uncommon? I desperately need to put something on since my stock springs are...

    Oil leak..... pooling on top of intake runner for 1 and 2 cyl.

    Hey guys, I've very suddenly developed an oil leax somewhere above the intake runner for cylendars 1 and 2.... it's pooling up. Could it really be as simple as a blown cam cover gasket? Or possibly the vent hose which connects there? Is there something else I should be looking at? Prior to...
