    power from a NA 7m

    Damn you're good. Let me know when you're planning on steaming, we'll have a party. :D Of course it's easier to do on my car. Spraying with a pump sprayer used for misting plants works great. ;)

    apexi air intake 507-t001 plastic or metal afm adapter?

    I've never seen an Apexi intake with a plastic adapter. I've owned two different kits from them BTW.

    Timing Control with Maftpro working?

    Not that I know of. I've been planning on tackling it soon, but I've got too much other stuff going on right now and no garage to work in in the evening. I have been talking with another owner who's working on getting it going. There are some problems and it's been relayed to me that Bob...

    power from a NA 7m

    Yup, seafoam... aka naptha. If you don't like your seals I'd go buy some. ;) There are plenty of viable products which will help, but on an old car with a lot of build up you're going to be using a lot and over a significant period of time... better off just completely cleaning them out when...

    Post what makes your Supra unique, i.e. Custom Parts / Fabrication / Rare Pieces?

    Does this count? My MAFT Pro's got a blue display: It's not dim, the blue backlight is actually too bright... so I will be adding a dimmer to it.

    Or clean the 20 years of carbon build up off the pistons.

    better gas mileage?

    You can't just turn off the injectors to a couple cylinders and expect an increase in mileage... remember, unless you can keep the exhaust valves for the cut cylinders open you're still wasting power having to compress the incoming air.

    Na engine bay shots!

    I really need to either find a place and some time to polish my engine components or pick up a spare set of... oh, everything to polish and then swap in.

    VTA-E2 Voltages/Resistance

    I've yet to see a tune which is so reliable that the Vf doesn't move at all... if you get that going something's more likely wrong than anything. A moving Vf signal doesn't mean much by itself. Only a 45 mile difference? Could it have been a mixup at the pump? Wrong octane in the tank...

    power from a NA 7m

    Well, whatever it is I hope you track it down without too much hassle. I really need to get a current dyno on my car.

    power from a NA 7m

    I thought that was about where the stock compression was... I'm just having a hard time seeing how a .5 bump along with +3º advance would cause such bad knock problems... I guess I'm spoiled by the high altitude here. I'm probably at 9.3:1 or 9.4:1, 17.5º BTDC and run 85 octane.

    power from a NA 7m

    I would think that an effectively designed header would actually help with lower octane fuels as it *should* allow for more scavenging of exhaust gases thus leaving the combustion chamber cooler for the next cycle. I can't remember for the life of me... what is the 7M-GE's stock CR?

    90mm thottle body

    Wasn't there a thread on here before about the different models of Q45 TB and how to tell the difference without having it on hand to measure? (I'm pretty sure it was here.... in that thread they discuss there being TWO different TB's, one 80 and one 90.) I don't personally know for sure but I...

    Need a resonator...

    Where would one fit a 24" long resonator? The most I'm going to be able to get in my car is one with a 4" x 12" body. When I get around to it, I'm planning on trying out Aero's resonator. It's actually based on frequency cancellation, no baffles and it's not just a perforated tube inside a...

    More fun to just get it on the highway and see what I can and can't beat. ;)

    VTA-E2 Voltages/Resistance

    I had no intention of having you permanently replace the wiring... it was just a suggestion so you'd get it out of your head. ;) 2) Absolutely no idea... and in that case I'd bypass the relay not just the resistor.

    Definitive Difference Between 7MGE & 7MGTE Oil Pumps?

    Heh, I might have to swap in a GTE oil pump just to see how high I can get my pressure...
