    Lo-Tek Gauge pod pillars gone?

    Retrospec became C7Carbon. They have been suspended as a vendor due to an outstanding dispute and exceptionally poor customer service. See the open dispute here for details: http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?154782-Dispute-against-Vendor-C7-Carbon-filed-by-Supra-NA-T

    12V Mod issues.

    Fixed that for ya! ;) It may not be the solution, but it's a good place to start for a baseline. What worked with factory cams generally won't work well with upgraded ones. You've got a completely different profile. Regardless, you're not going to get a perfectly smooth idle at factory RPM...

    12V Mod issues.

    The vaccum issue is likely the cams. If your exhaust valve is open at the same time the piston is in downward motion, it's going to draw some of the exhaust back into the cylinder at low RPM rather than air from the intake. That "lumpy idle" that cars with big cams have? Like this...

    12V Mod issues.

    Maybe we should take a step back here and understand your full mod list... Yea, big cams will make your idle quality drop considerably. Depending on how much overlap you're running, you can get really pig rich under those circumstances. Driveability always suffers in exchange for high end...

    12V Mod issues.

    I thought about that, but he wouldn't be able to lower the base FP if that were the case, no?

    12V Mod issues.

    Hrm... Ok, an AFC should be able to manage 550's. (I've seen them mange 750's successfully with a few compromises). Normally I'd suspect a return line restriction, however you wouldn't be able to reduce your base FP if that were the case. I'll PM a few people and ask them to take a look at this...

    12V Mod issues.

    Base FP is right on the money. Running an S-AFC in that power range is pushing the limits of piggyback tuning.. What size injectors are you running?

    12V Mod issues.

    Ok, just checking. We've had some people do silly things around here. What about the other 2 questions I added above?

    12V Mod issues.

    What are your power goals that you need such a ludicrously large fuel pump? What is your base fuel pressure set to @ idle with the reference hose disconnected? What led you to believe you needed a bigger pump?

    Ruger MKIII

    Pistols are almost always louder than rifles. I find .22 pistols will cause my ears to ring after a few rounds. We have a Ruger 10/22 and you can shoot that without ear protection all day. I've used .22 subsonics in pistol and they are really quiet while still being hot enough to cycle a Ruger...

    Yea, I've seen that before. Absolutely beautiful. Price is insane IMO, but that looks like a mint condition Supra.
