Yes.

Well, once you have the afpr in, I think you could probably get pretty close to ideal with your own tuning. I forgot that you have an AFR gauge, and that's your principal tuning indicator. Since I don't have one installed yet, I had to leave tuning to a qualified shop. :(

Yes- You shut off the motor, flip #4 switch to on, then dial them all to zero to begin with. However- it's pretty much a complete crapshoot without a dyno. I drive my car in WOT mode(no rpm mode tune) because I've modded so many things since my dyno session, I couldn't possibly set them right.

You posted this in the build up gallery. That means you now have to buy lots of expensive stuff, install it, and post pics so we can drool. PS- My windshield had the aforementioned rust too.

With dipswitch #4 in WOT tuning, your base, idle mid and WOT dials become rpm-specific set dials. Do you have a copy of the manual? It explains all this. You can get the manual online.

Someone WILL correct me if I'm wrong, but with an adjustable timing light, you set the advance to what you want(10 degrees), And time the cps so that the timing mark is on TDC.

For that build, get a used MAFT. It can be scaled to whatever injector size you throw in there. Plus you don't have to use a Lex AFM. Besides- you don't want to do a Lex without 550/ 560's.

You are running the exact setup I have- 560's in blow-thru. Do you have the HAC wire connected? I assume you made sure the GM MAF is connected to the harness. Dip switches: 1 off 2 off 3 on or off 4 off Dials: Aux 0 or 4 is good Base E Idle 0 Mid 0 WOT 0 (These will be adjusted later)

He wasn't a dealer, he just had it sitting around and didn't need it.

I read the wiki blurb that S.A. had posted on the messenger pidgeon....Wow. We americans killed it off in less than a hundred years- from 5+billion, to zero, by using it as meat for slaves or something. Wow. And yeah- I didn't need this one either, but I was drooling over it on Ebay. I;m going...

Yes, I am thinking of putting it behind glass. I don't know if the Ebay seller is on the forums, but let's just say that I got such a rediculously good deal on it, that after receiving it- I sent the guy MORE money, simply because it was a steal- and I appreciate the value of the part that much.

What's a passenger pigeon? You mean a messenger pidgeon?

A new, in-the-bag, 1988 Supra turbo MT engine harness... okay, okay...I know it's not the last one- hell, probably a dozen guys right here on the forum have a new one squirreled away on their parts shelves. But it just makes me happier telling myself it's the last one. I didn't...

What he said. Bad dimmer = no dash/ climate control lights. I believe you can test the theory by bypassin the dimmer control.

I have a Tial kockoff that I bought like 6 years ago. Never ever had a problem with it, and it sounds great. I'm not saying it's as good as Tial at all, I'm just saying I've had complete success with the "wannabe". :)

I like that idea.

lol. I was thinking the same thing.

25th sounds more do-able for me.

Well, that paint was a heat protection material, as well as radar-absorbing. Didn't really have anything to do with the color. Regardless- still the coolest plane ever made, thermally and philosophically speaking.

If you're that close, I'd consider just cleaning or replacing spark plugs- that might do it. Also, check your egr vavle as per the tsrm- they get clogged up after a while. Not sure if switching to 87 will help, though it does burn faster.
