    wrong part or wrong size?

    i have never seen a 12x1.25 to -4 fitting. they are usually 12x1.25 to -6, then you use a -6 to -4 reducer. actually, i think suprasport waay back in the day had one, but it wasnt earl's or anything like that. was some odd ball thing. and even then, i might be dreaming about that haha...

    Pics of my new 3" T3 V-Band Turbo Elbow from MDC!!

    its up to you mo. but i would leave it alone. you have a wideband, and i care more about that than an egt. sure, an egt is helpful in tuning, esp back in the "old days". however, running a wideband now i use it exclusive for tuning. egt can show mixed results. run too rich and it will show...

    my igniton system sucks.. part2

    make sure i understand this correctly. the wb02 was 2" from the v-band and gave false lean conditions and didnt heat up enough? then you moved to 6" away and now it stays at the correct temp and reads 2 points different?

    Car Cover's

    yeah def get a good cover. a bad cover is worse than no cover at all. those covercraft are decent, and not bad priced. they are ~100 new but can usually pick up on ebay for a little less. willie's car sits outside and looks mint. i'll see what cover he is using too.

    Back from Vegas

    finally! some pics! but why is this in off topic? if someone didnt point a link to it i would have never seen it. its rare i go into this section. anyway, is this anyone's car on here? that is sucking in some serious hot air. it would make more power using the stock setup than that. not...

    LOUISVILLE SUPRA MEET

    jeffy- that is the coolant line that loops thru the throttle body and isc. doesnt keep it cool, the opposite. it keeps it warm so it wont freeze up driving in arctic conditions. i took all that off my car and just made a single loop. we did the same thing on chris's.

    Check out the new Turbo Wrap ;)

    IJ- your setup reminds me of the movie spinal tap. "it's like, how much more black could this be? and the answer is none. none more black" those blankets do work well tho.

    First Time at Dyno

    congrats! very good power level for the mods. looks like he took it to the rev limiter. makes sense, ~6700 rpm since its an 88. i dont think thats too crazy. it just seems like it revs for days since its started so low and making that low of numbers takes a while. no offense to you...

    Brake Fluid Flush ?'s

    140km or mph? haha. dont you know by now fluid dynamics work different down under? just look at how your toilet flushes! also, when you were brought back from the dead did you have a strange urge for brains? just curious.

    LOUISVILLE SUPRA MEET

    i asked for it to be a sticky. and since the meet hasnt happened yet (very close!!) i'd prefer it to stay that way. however, i had no idea it would be 50 pages long and posted in every 20min. but, that aside, id like to keep it as it is til the meet happens. thanks edit- and then you...

    cold start injector delete

    you can just use a AN plug for the rail. dont know of anyone that makes a block off plate for the manifold, but it isnt too hard to make one. can use the gasket as a guide.

    Safc tuning

    that is normal under closed loop operation (<75% throttle). under open loop/wot it runs in the 10:1 range. if you are running 14.8 under wot you have a serious problem. JAV- i dont mind but at this point it seems kinda moot. 97tsi- thanks for the kind words :) rich- i dont think it...
