I understand i would start with going over all the vacuum lines in the car and make sure they are fasten and tight Air filter change and plugs and wires

Shouldn't be keeping the car from starting. I live in southern Arizona and my car starts everytime but somtimes it will get heat soaked but still starts

Exhaust wrap. Heat shields. Even try exhaust wrap on the Intercooler pipe. Getting air into the engine bay is good aftermarket hoods with vents can help Improving intake termps helps out. Either way if this is your problem its not such a big deal it wont hurt your motor as far as i know

Notice that it happens on warm starts after you have been driving... Most of the time it is a Case of (A term called) Heat Soak. Do some research on it you might find this is your problem

I'd check the clutch fan/water pump and sensors on the thermostat housing. Also if you look for coolant leaking behind the head any pin hole leak of coolant can cause overheating. all and all if you know how to do the work a OEM Head gasket from driftmotion is $80 and get a Head Gasket Kit off...

what would you say the size of are stock turbo is?

Best option is getting your's re-done or buying one and getting that one re-done so your car is not down. But Toyota no longer sells them if you get lucky Ebay pops up with new ones every now and again but most who come across them do not give them up.. I'm saving up to have my Grey plug...

its the stock turbo... just save a little more money $150-200 more and buy a upgrade from Albert or Driftmotion

Yeah the tip was dry.

i have a real hks in the spot as you can see in my avatar photo. It hasn't failed in 7k miles but i want to have the flange relocated further away from the turbo

ok upon soaking up and getting the oil out of that spark plug i took out the plug and there was oil on the threads.

Welcome to SM!

oh its just something that popped in my head when i had my head redone the shop told me he had to replace 3 valves that were bent gave me the option to buy them or said he would. it was like 6 bucks a valve or something like that

Just street tuned myself. at a good 11.3-11.7 WOT all the way through gears But is it possible the oil could get through the threads and down onto the plug and be burning off the oil. Maybe i have a Bent Valve.

Could this be my problem lol. this is my #6 cylinder with the plug still in it
