Usually when you upgrade your fuel injectors, AFM, and I highly recommend installing an adjustable fuel pressure regulator with this at the same time because a high flowing fuel pump can be the death of a tired +20 year old stock FPR.
Sorry, I don't know when the change occurs, but my guess would be past 75% throttle, or WOT, but I don't know for sure.

No it doesn't. It only needs enough voltage to supply the fuel needed to keep the air/fuel ratio at its proper point.
Running it on 9 volts when not under load will make the pump motor last longer.
another numbie question. whats my rear end ratio? Is it a lsd or open? Its a 1987 supra 7mgte auto. i read the tread on how to identify using the axle code but i dont have the car yet. Is there just a gear set that came with the turbo auto? if not does any one know the range of ratios they came with?

To be honest, I think it's retarded to race a stock supra....it's not going to be impressive at all....especially a tired supra! Good luck in whatever you do (even if it's boring the hell out of people waiting for you to finally cross the 1/4 mile at 92 mph).
I disagree, to a point. Get one or two baseline runs. Don't kill it, or load it up. Just run it out like you would hitting an entrance ramp of one of our lovely interstates.
This will give you something to gauge future mods by. BTW, if you delay our track time, we will shorten your life expectancy.:icon_bigg

haha i dont know if you have been to steel before but there usually really good about track clean up and want run if im worried about it
It's your money if you blow it up, but if it was something that was easily preventable, you're going to hate yourself...
haha well i did do one pass and like i thought i blew the boost pipe from the intercooler to the intake and ran a 19.182. at least i have base line now

please do. Im hoping to have all little problems fixed soon around christmas and be ready for paint this summer. Even if my supra is not running ill come hang out with yall I might end up there in cougar or if nether is running ill all ways have my rsx.
is your accordian hose epoxied together? replacing that, and all those dry-rotted (probly cracked) hoses around there is gonna make you really happy when you take the car out afterward.
looks like that car hasnt been air conditioned in a longgggg time haha.. all the rust in front of the engine is actually kind of a good sign- its not leaking oil everywhere.

if you look left on to profile info youll see the pipe that keeps blowing its a pvc pipe from the intercooler to the intake
