nothing wrong just trying to finish my rebuild and i dont have much left.

im in Quakertown which is like 30 mins or so outside Philly going towards Allentown.

im definitely in if my car is up and running by then.

just wondering if anyone knows if the HKS intake would bolt to the LIPP adapter then together bolt up to a lexus AFM. http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?t=15930

haha i would be up for it if someone else funded. thats the problem im just trying to breakin my motor properly becuase of all the money in it.

yeah i have all the vacuums taken care of i am just finishing up with a the heater hoses and all and just wanted to make sure they werent included.

so dont use just a normal synthetic for first breakin. and i know about going at least 1000miles before taking the revs about like 3500.

can someone explain the proper breakin time and maintence and all for a freshly built motor. ive heard some things about mileage and not using synthetic oil right away and i just want a straight answer. thanks

does anyone know if the hosetechniques hose kits comes with all the hoses. because if it does at like $70 its a bargain considering some of the hoses are $30 alone at toyota.

got another quick question for someone. when you get your car dyno tuned your supposed to leave all the settings as they put them to not mess anything up. now does this also mean you cant mess with boost?

sorry guys just wanted to make sure i knew everything before i go spend money on something if i didnt need it. im def. gonna get the wideband gauge so hopefully if something goes wrong i have a slight chance of catching it. thanks for all the info i had no clue about tuning or widebands before...

so if dyno tuning places use their equipment besides a wideband gauge to monitor a/f why would the average person need a whole wideband setup

well i dont mind buying a wideband just trying to figure out if its really needed and what type to get. since im not tuning im thinking if i buy one it will be the UEGO 6in1. any advice on the best wideband?

Red Dragon: do you feel that even though im not going to tune my car myself and i wont touch the settings that the place tunes the car with that i should get a wideband gauge at least for more efficient monitoring?

yeah i see what your saying. i think ill just hook up the a/f that i have just for a base because if something is really wrong the gauge will peg one way or the other. but ill look into an egt also. the only wideband i was considering now was the AEM 6in1 because all it is, is basically a...

so they will mess with my AFC and all until it reads correct according to their equipment?

yeah i dont know if i really want to tune my car or not just maybe look into it so i guess ill just see what they do when they tune. so im pretty sure im going to get the AEM 6in1. now when they tune the car will they tune off of the wideband reading or something else? ive never had a car...

how easy is it to tune yourself if i got a wideband with the data logging capabilities and so on. i mean i only plan to add another turbo down the road so that would mean i would only have to dyno tune 2 times which wouldnt be horrible. but if its not hard for me to do it myself then why not.

alright just making sure. so now if i decide to get the 6into1 it will be just a reading. now if down the road i decide i want to try fooling around tuning it myself i would have to get a different wideband with datalogging correct?

You are now entering into the world of tuning and running an upgraded tuned EMS, it is not like running a stock set up. You need to know what is going on. Gauges are not there to look cool.;) i know i have a whole set of Autometer Cobalt gauges including oil press, water temp, boost, fuel...
