So I am thinking TEMS cars have suspension that...

    Boost cut? Ignition problem? I have know idea what is going on.

    I went out for a ride last night and got on the gas twice, the first time the turbo spooled up fine, then at about 7 psi it shuttered hard once or twice, after that it went straight up to 11 psi or so. I had a shimmed turbo so that seemed normal. It had no boost cut at the higher levels of...

    What will cause a code 34?

    Where do I find a list of Diagnostics codes?

    I looked on Supras.com and in the reference section here to no avail. I have either a 34 or a 43(wife was in the car says it is a 34, I saw a 4 then a 3 then a 4 so I don't know). I would like to have the list for further reference though.

    Boost Cut? Boost Leak?

    When I rev my car above 4-5k rpm it loses power for about half a second, then gains it again quickly, then loses it again and does this in rapid sucession. My wastegate is unshimmed and I am not running an aftermarket boost controller so my boost should be around 7-8psi as I am running a full 3"...
