Did a comp. test on a warm engine & now its running rough after start up & lacks power. The ignition & fuel system was disconnected during the process. All the cylinders were between 135-140 psi. No excess coolant pressure. Put in new spark plugs, re-checked timing (10 degrees...

Hi everyone, been a while since I last posted a thread. I have a 7MGTE running a highflow (57 Trim) CT26, aftermarket ECU, using highest ocane fuel readily available. Have a look at one of my spark plugs (NGK BKR7E) after giving it a blast to 6,000 & 20psi , the highest mappable setting on my...

Never really fully understood how different engine setups are tuned at various ramp rates. Example: real world (on road) figures- car A accelerates from 100-130km/h in 4 seconds in 4th gear (1:1) car B accelerates from 100-130km/h in 6 seconds in 4th gear (1:1) car A has a large...

Does anyone know the factory 7MGTE ignition timing figures at the various rpm/boost levels? thanks

Could someone let me know the Toyota part number for the CT26 gasket set? thanks

Running a Microtech ECU on my 7MGTE & last dyno tune was mapped to 10psi. Have since made slight changes to my intake & found that the old bov was leaking, hence the 10psi maximum. Installed a new Bosch bov & now it sees 14psi. My current psi, and fuel (ms), settings for load are: 2 4.38...

I thaught most of the oil contamination was from non magnetic substances? http://www.emergingent.com/magnefine/force_field.htm

Is 1 or 2 the fluid entry?

Recently I had a long discussion with a well know performance mechanic about the engine oil I am using. 7MGTE with around 4,000 km following a reconditioned bottom end. Running standard boost through a high flow CT26. I am using 5w30 synthetic oil & have been since around 2k. When I told...

Can anyone think of any negative issues with disconnecting the auto cable, at the throttle body, during chassis dyno runs? With o/d switched off & the cable loosened as far as the thread will allow it still wants to downshift to 2nd at anything under around 90 km/h. Want to check the A/F...

After my last tune I checked the base timing and it was set at 5 degrees BTDC. I dont know if this was done as a safety margin or was the result of calibrating the CPS. When the engine is dead cold it idles a bit low & slightly rough until it warms up a bit. From all the info that I have read...

Can someone let me know the Toyota part # for the 7mgte turbo gasket, ie the one b/w the turbo & the manifold, as my aftermarket pos is leaking. thanks

What is the most amount of cam degrees that you have either retarded/advanced your camshafts? I am currently running +2.5 (I) & +3.5 (E) on the BC264's.

Need to do another 300km before a proper tune is done but at the moment running around with these Microtech settings on 430cc injectors, 10 psi max boost & 4,880 rev cut: IDLE: Vacuum 0" 5" 10" 15" 20" 25" 30" 3.38 2.81 1.86 1.24 1.14...

Can someone let me know the length of the MKIII oil dipstick as I think mine (56cm) is from another model & too short?

Here is what my timing map is currently set at: Idle 1000 1500 2000 2500 3000 3500 4000 4500 5000 5500 6000 6500 7000 +17 +22 +27 +29 +29 +30 +30 +30 +31 +32 +32 +32 +30 +30 Maximum torque is around 4500, soft rev cut at 6500 & hard at 7000. Auto 7mgte, CT26 57 trim...

What do most people consider to be the safe maximum psi for a CT26 57 trim?

My auto is playing up. In D it only operates in overdrive gear, ie limp mode. Manually selecting 1st & 2nd is fine as is reverse. It does not throw any codes at all. About two days before the problem I noticed my tacho was playing up, ie bouncing all over the place & generally showing more...

Does anyone have an idea of how much a stock 7mgte exhaust manifold is capable of flowing? If ported properly what increase in airflow is possible?:naughty:
