Hey Alex, it was pretty quick until out on a test drive we found it had NO OIL in it! LOL

So we went to a gas station and dumped 4qts. Not sure if the big puddles underneath it are from an OIL leak somewhere or if its the PS pump, PS rack (cuz the boot is torn), or the PS resevior.

But all the kinks will be sorted. When its not setting a knock sensor code 52 it does pull good :D

Careful with that. I found out the hard way fuel cut is not always a bad thing.

AMEN. I'm actually going to give it to ace in case he needs it for his track supra down the road.. i dont plan on running more then 8psi for now until i get a more stable platform, IE A headgasket + ARP's

Edit : integrated into PFC FCON.

will give it to him if i can.. lol.

Well I wont need the FCD, i'm only boostin 10psi. And once the 2J is swapped in there I'll be on Megasquirt engine management. What you should do is FCD the 1J car. Although it's an auto, so the tranny sorta acts as your fuel cut, lol

BTW Ryan, who the hell is that in your avatar?

-Upgraded turbo from Zankoku performance
-rc 550's
-LEX AFM
-Cometic
-ARP headstuds
-Walbro
-Intercooler/Piping

Already have PFC FCON and FCD..

Funny, you're gonna build Christy's automatic w/ a 1jz and not this one. When you should build this 5 speed instead. You wont realize the full potential of the 1J without a manual transmission!

Unless he uses the tranny that comes with the 1JZ. Those are pretty nice and I was suprised how nice it was boosting with that auto on lol.
