By doing simple math he would need almost a third of his cylinder to be filled with carbo. That's extreme to put it mildly. I have seen 10-20 psi over/under but never 50 over. Very interested in seeing the "why". The catchcan is to maintain the engine, it may possibly mask an issue, but...

I would do nothing until you stabilize your engine ... lol. Don't add things until you fix what's there. Catch can is fine and there is a vendor on these forums that makes a really sweet looking one... but first, figure out what's causing your issues. I have never seen a cylinder with that...

Cant see your photo attachment.. but I will show my block (without the Cometic.. just a Felpro) Are you talking about the water ports on the intake side? I believe they do slightly cover the intake side port (if I recall when fitting mine). That's the cool side of the engine so it wont hurt it.

lol.. that's a tiny pic... I just caught what it was.. :D

Think he meant "oiling" and "cooling" as two issues. As far as I know, oiling issues only show up on high HP mK3s because the oil pump is up front on the engine (I may be wrong) so they usually overfill it slightly (about 1/2 a quart or more) Cooling, well.. this is the hottest engine bay...

I bought mine for the body lines and the fact it's a GT. Toyota built our cars very well. Everytime you hit the road (even if the car is rusted) you get noticed. Funny, but the high end car owners seem to be the ones that notice most. Good to hear your machine has addicted you a little...

I don't know for certain what the valid modifications would be so its better I don't answer. You don't "need" to do anything to the head, but you can improve it.

Lol, I found that out when I looked at my dyno and saw the massive torque. No worries though, I believe there is a stroker kit for the 2jz for an extra 9000.00 that makes it superior again... But I think that's off topic. (9000 rpm, 3.5 litre... Imagine... )

Both of the samples above are FFIM which makes them very similar to the 2j look. Something else to consider... They made the 2j after the 7m, but you can consider the 7m a stoker version of the 2j. All you need to do really is modify the 7m head a bit and I think you could consider the 7m...

After my previous comment, I should add, either engine bay when given a high level of thought to detail is just so damn nice to see. The 3000 pipe crossover is the one thing I dislike on the 7m. But, it can be done very sexy as well.

So, a stand alone ECU tune wont notice the EGR delete than.

Not sure I agree with the increase of MPG.. that doesn't make sense to me. Should actually decrease because you cant increase the timing as well due to the higher EGT. I wouldn't do it for that reason. only two reasons I would delete the EGR. 1. Its unmonitored and a bitch to get at with the...

No.. just simpler in some cases I believe. Same with AC delete.. easier.. but not necessary. All has to do with the builder. I have seen a lot of hacked 2jz installs though... more than I have seen pretty ones. (other than pictures)

That COP looks very very nice, anything about it that you don't like?

(50, I witnessed the death of the Great lakes...) On a large scale.. I would be hurting the environment. But for my piddly little driving the effect is pretty well zero. Just keep it in perspective. This is a 1988 Supra... 25 years old. I keep it tuned as best I can and it gets extreme care. It...

(I edited my original post prior to this so people wont think I actually know what I am talking about.. :D ) I take it you think I'm hurting the environment driving without a cat and EGR... I disagree.. but hey... I get an implied facepalm... my day is complete! Just to get it right.. your...

Also, you have to remember... your not counting the R&D time to accumulate parts, get the color scheme/bling like you want, engine bay clean up.. etc.. etc... Most of you guys with the "HOLY CRAP!" engine bays don't talk about that... but its not an easy feat. A shop does not typically do that...
