    Any thing like making timing based on manifold pressure? :) IE: when you are running a larger turbo, and you hit the gas, it allows additional timing advance untill the manifold pressure comes up, and then it adjusts to the changes real time v/s off some set map/parameters based on RPM/TPS/KS...

    T-stat issue resolved and why it happened. With pics.

    My guess is your fan clutch is shot/worn out. The Fluidyne cools pretty well, even without the undertray in place. (But your stock fan shroud, fan and clutch have to be in good working order, or in place.) E-fans, shroudless stock fans, and worn out stock fan clutches all contribute to a...

    Nice choice :) (And nice to see more LEO's with Supra's :) ) Stay safe out there!

    Cool. If you buy one, it's too bad I don't live closer, we'd have to head to the range! (I'd like to shoot one before I plunk down the money for the Ti version... :) ) Suppose I should go over to Impact Guns, and rent one on the range, and shoot it back to back with the PT99.. But I'd most...

    That M+P 9mm appears interesting.. (I have the "Beretta" copy in the Taurus.. :) ) Nothing to sneeze at having 18 rounds in your service weapon before you have to reload. (Hope you never have to use it, but it's there if you do.) Personally, I'd have to "point" each of these, and have...

    stutter and miss unless fuel pump is jumpered

    Stock pump? It was designed to have variable voltage supplied to it. Replacement pump from someone like Walbro or Holley? They generally like a full voltage diet. So easy to do this. Get short wire. I've found solid wire works best. About 12ga house wire.. Cut a piece 2" long...

    lets discuss electric water pump

    The meat of the problem as it's described here is not the pump pushing the coolant around, but the lack of airflow over the radiator due to the crappy E-Fan. You can pump coolant till the cows come home, but if you can't get airflow over your radiator, it's a moot point. Here is my...

    12.5 : 1 Cosworth pistons

    Nice skirt design. Too bad more forged options don't have longer skirts like those. It should be one very nice GE motor for sure. I'd reccomend a thermal barrier coating for the crown if your going to run the No2 and high compression.. Just less expensive than melting a piston, especially...

    LOL, the "Hooting" is them working.... :) Installed the other way, they will leak boost pressure, even if they are sourced from the Porsche 996 part number with the stronger spring than the volvo/saab/audi part numbers. (Not sure, but the RS6 setup might use the stronger spring valve too...

    Wheel Fitment & Question Thread

    I thought I posted on this, but I guess not. 1) I think the whole stretched tire deal is not my idea of style. 2) Performance is what should direct style, and excessive negative camber, 225 tires on 10" wide rims and suspensions with no travel left is not performance in any way, shape or...

    Rods?

    Never delt with Crower, or Carillo and the Eagles are being used, but I've heard that replacing the bolts with better ones is a good idea. (ARP sources better bolts... so not hard to do.) The dealings I've had with Pauter Machine were all excellent. The rods are second to none quality wise...

    JVT Racing radiators

    Just curious, where are the top mounts/retainers going to hook into? (Oops..) Looks interesting, but you might have to fabricate the upper mount locations, or new mounts.

    Project "Fattening the Pig:

    I would reccomend at least putting an enclosure around the sub mount, so the entire rear hatch floor becomes a soundboard of sorts. (With a recessed mount for your sub...) You could also add "perimiter" boards around the sides, and use weatherstrip foam to seal it up to the hatch floor to...

    Color Change or Different Car - Opinions Needed

    My vote is for Orange Pearl with a flip to the gold... (Lambo Orange Nachre..) Seen Mission Impossible 3? The orange Lambo they blow up in the Vatican? That's the color.. :) Red is more expensive than black. (Iron oxide v/s soot as the pigment... LOL) Know why Henry Ford chose Black as...

    Rear Brake Upgrade

    Your best bet would be a brake system designed for NASCAR rims.. They are 15" IIRC, and the way they got better brakes unside the smaller rims was by going with thicker rotors with more vanes to disperse as much heat as possible. (Also larger calipers and pads..) Wilwood has many options for...

    Thanks for the feedback. If the MAP sensor Causes me any idle/running problems, I will route a seperate hose just to it as you guys suggest. (It is a pretty good size diameter hose, slightly larger than stock Toyota stuff, and about the same size as the GM 3 Bar port, so flow is not a problem...

    Open downpipe yes or no?

    LOL, those chunks would need to make it through a few feet of IC pipe, and the FMIC... and then the throttle body, and then the valves... And keep in mind, most stock intercoolers are coated pretty well inside with oil.. so think large K&N filter to trap your debris in there.. Just a...

    Who wants aluminum rad for $210

    Very cool. (Excuse the pun... LOL) Have a Fluidyne, would have bought the CSF twin core, or the Koyo, but got a good deal on what I have... This should be a very good upgrade for any MK3 based on cost, and volume. (I'm guessing the three cores are 1/2" tubes, lots of fins, and large...
