Hmmm... the more I am on this site... and as I approach the FIRST meet I will make with my supra (despite OWNING it for 14 years... DOH!) I am KEENLY AWARE now that not many of the supras OWNED are actually being OPERATED on a regular basis! ...what up with that!?:cry: (Now I'm...

This is actually an interesting thread. There could be a LOT of misinformation, and ill-functioning set-ups that could be remedied with a little insight into the distinctions between several symptoms or conditions which are all being referred to with a common term (such as "flutter" and...

Just across the border a ways...;) I'd like to see a shot of the car, thank you...:biglaugh: -crisp

Good memory! Yup... I'd say STOCK on the turbo. (It had "machining" like appearance from the earlier view... but that taper and entry dia. is very much consistent with the stock CT.;) -crisp

BUMP for the extra and continued effort! I just got off the phone on some more parts to get mine together... and custom's cleared IJ's parts (head, etc...) yesterday, so hopefully I'll have those installed as well! -crisp

I run mine CENTRAL (12 o'clock position) on the OPTION OUT, and "TRIM" with the GCC +- accordingly. My understanding is that IF the GCC "TRIM" is creating the (interpolated) curve at the points you have control over, the OP OUT will move the ENTIRE MAP (trim curve) incrementally by the 2% per...

Hmmm.... just a thought, but could it be "fuel/map" during transition to "ON" the boost? Anyway... glad it's working! -crisp

HA HA! At first I thought "OZ... the WHEEL MANUFACTURER!" DOH!:biglaugh: (I was ready to ASK for a great deal on some... heh heh heh...) Thanks for the responses. -crisp

Thanks! The more I look... the more I like those! Good with our "Blues".;) I prefer the 17" as they really provide for better ride with the increased sidewall... imho. (Especially if the REST of the suspension get's "tweaked" to the firm/stiff side of things.) Any info on where those...

Great looking with those rims! What rims and size are you running there? -crisp

BINGO! Congratulations on finding the solution!;) -crisp

Yeah, I'm pretty sure it was right at about $100 or so for the chips. I got to thinking that each of these is worth more than that to me just to have on hand!:biglaugh: I may have other literature on these matters... but it looks like I'd have to dig to find it, as my stuff got pretty...

Do you know how "clean" and smooth your hole/air-passage through the IC wall is? And where is the BOV in the system? -crisp

Hmmm... no, still not "that" kind of flutter in my experience. The ONLY "flutter" I can discern is WHEN you dump, and at END of exhaustion of blow-off pressure, it briefly "fttt..fttt...phhttttt..." very briefly, IF I stay off throttle. ANY time I am MORE than "BETWEEN" vacuum/boost (RIGHT in...

^^^ That's in the PFC-Fcon now. Running 550cc + VPC (among OTHER stuff...:biglaugh:) ^^^ I believe the TOP one is original MAF with 440cc, then the next one is VPC with 440cc. ^^^ They've been sitting in my shed in these little protective cases... I might just want...

Oh, yeah! I thought of one more photo-thought! DON'T use flash! Try to always shoot with ambient (available) light, and if you have "less than ideal" illumination, just make sure your camera is SECURE and resting ON something, if not a proper tripod. Additionally, USE the 2 second (or...

PHEW!!!:biglaugh: ...I FINALLY caught up in this build thread! (Thought it was funny I kept missing pieces... I hadn't SUBSCRIBED yet! DOH!) Been catching bits and pieces... now I'll keep up to pace!;) It's all looking good, Mo! I'm happy to share in the "anti-bling" camp, for...

^^^ My points exactly! All makes sense... there is design intent that must be considered for application suitability as well as prerequisite for intent-specific function.;) -crisp

^^^ That's fair enough! Your experiences should certainly speak for your advice to others. I'm good with that. I would certainly weigh the power of "numbers" over "opinion" anyday... and my "opinion" is based on limited experience.;) -crisp

One more consideration. I've seen BOV flanges welded to the pipe with SMALLISH HOLE in IC pipe. After the "initial hole" is created, you can ENLARGE THE MOUTH in a "venturi" type "bell" flair by grinding on the INSIDE since the flange is welded around the outside perimeter. This will allow...
