    Car Go Boom, Now Car Go Fast. ArmandoP tests his luck.

    having that debate right now. will definitely go single at some point, but considering my budget doesnt include an AEM, but can cover the rest of a single setup I may hold off on going big single... not sure yet. You should come by and take a look at it sometime, its mostly torn apart at the moment.

    Ok, for those who dont know, here is the history.... CAR GO BOOM! Right when I was going to MDC to upgrade the turbo/downpipe/wastegate combination and solve my annoying fuelcut issue, the car decided it wanted to start rod knocking. I went about 2 miles down the road making the biggest...

    7M hit 18psi with stock AFM and still very rich...

    keep in ind that those guys didnt really know what they were doing and had practically zero load on the dyno. From what I hear, it was the equivalent of driving downhill on an 80 degree incline... hence why all the low numbers on the turbo cars.

    Lexus afm question.

    just to make sure your question was answered... the electronics are identical on either AFM, so both are correct. Use the LEX electronics or the Supra electronics = same thing. Just make sure you test the electronics youre installing with an Ohmeter like the tsrm says... as long as it passes...
