I don't have before and after dynos, but my car made 320rwhp with stock turbo and injectors, and I think a big part of that was the FFIM and shorter pipes. torque was around 360ft-lbs, dyno graphs are in my build thread, link in my sig

you also need to attach the stock passenger switch mount somehow. I cut the stock one off with a dremel and epoxied it onto the retrospec part. also, the retrospec part will need a bit of sanding to get it to fit right. i used velcro to attach mine. pics are in my build thread of what I did.

cant remember where i got it from, but i think it was someone swedish?

you mean these?

if it was sitting for that long, I would look at brakes (make sure rotors are true and within spec, maybe upgrade the pads and change/flush) and suspension (if the bushings, bearings etc are good, look at new springs and shocks), as well as tires (in case they have flat spots from sitting). on...

you can delete it completely, I found a hose at the parts store that fit. or, if you want to replace it, jetjock posted which car has a similar one, I think you have to remove a bracket or something. just do a search for jetjocks post.

sound performance is getting over 840rwhp out of the 6266 on a built 3.4L block 2jz, and over 730rwhp on a stock block 2jz with a 6766: http://www.supraforums.com/forum/showthread.php?647531-New-Precision-66-turbine-wheels-for-67-and-62-CEA-turbos./page11 pretty nutty.

wait for the black friday sales, then get a 6266.

I've seen these before, might work for the R154: http://www.summitracing.com/parts/TCI-940003/ Summit has a whole section for transmission shields, I think they have universal kevlar/fabric shields too, but I'm not sure. here you go: http://www.summitracing.com/parts/RCI-7808A/

i have everything to do the PS now, made a fancy new hiem joint tensioner for the alt, just have to get around to installing it. im going to yellowknife, then calgary, then mexico over xmas holidays, that ate alot of my spending money.

I'll be heading over at some point to get my car tuned, currently constrained by lack of power steering and budget.

i have had 2 chevy sprints, complete heaps of shit, but hilarious to drive, great on gas, and totally reliable. hopefully you can find a good replacement
