Make sure you have a healthy engine, car & drivetrain first.

Then:
-3" exhaust & dp
-Upgrade airfilter

Then:

-Walbro fuel pump
-550cc injectors (R/C, lucas etc. MK4 supra injectors WILL NOT I REPEAT WILL NOT WORK)
-Lex AFM
-AFPR

Then:

-Wide band O2
-SAFC
-Larger turbo
Good to know I'm on the right track, though I hope to avoid the next steps... So far, I'm at the Lex AFM stage in this list, which is pretty much the order I did it in, too. I still need the AFPR before I go forward though.

i mean i knew about needing bigger injectors and what it does, i was out of it last night and worded that pretty bad. i really meant to ask does it matter what lexus it comes off of?

I didn't comment about bigger injectors. I commented on types of airflow meters. It doesn't matter what car, it matters what engine. And the 1UZFE has the same airflow meter as the Supra, only bigger.

The hose that goes from the AFM to the turbo is commonly called the accordian hose. There's a Toyota part name for it, probably something like #1 intake pipe or something. No, it won't come with the Lexus AFM. You'll also find that it's very tight going over the Lexus AFM, since it's bigger than the stock unit.

Oh, and I think you mean RK. Rod Knock.

one more i took my mbc off, but im tired of running only 8psi, i had a problem when it was installed that i could not get over 9 though. after reading through installation instructions for lots of mbc's i noticed a few of them saying to remove the turbo vsv. i cant find much about that general part though.

If you get another stock accordion hose, I recommend boiling a pot of water and dipping the AFM side in it, then stretching it out a little. You should probably use gloves, but I just burnt the hell out of myself til it fit, only took two tries. The heat will make it expand a bit and make it much more malleable.
