So are you saying if i put in the Lexus afm and 550 injectors i wouldn't have any problems boosting on my stock turbo. I'm getting the DDp in a few days so with just the afm and injectors would i hit FCO?

I had DP/Lex/550 with stock fuel and was fine running 12psi. Don't go nuts cranking up the boost on stock fuel. The Walbro and AFPR are just insurance until you get to a certain HP level then manditory, but good insurance in my opinion.

Update: (now back in Seattle)

I was long gone on my trip after last post......Holy crap! No more fuel cut, woo hoo!!! Been boosting my way to TX and damn, she ran beautifully. :bowdown: I also stopped whenever tank is at the 1/4 mark, just to be safe. I forgot to bring the Walbro with me so my dad can install it at the shop. :squint:

Will install Walbro very soon.....

yes, that was his problem. i'm assuming that his LEX afm electronics were faulty.

At first I put on the LEX AFM with the Supra electronics (that was what I remembered from research), but it hesistate. Then I replaced the electronics with the LEX electronics and it worked.
