Very cool, Josh. Now get a pipe made for that filter so you can run it through the snorkel hole for a CAI and also so you can run a hose from the left valver cover PCV vent to keep vacuum on the crankcase. :)

Now you gotta do something about that stock fuel system. :)

I'll be putting my turbo kit back on this weekend hopefully. Got my turbos back and dropped off the turbine housings and other parts with Jose for ceramic coating. I hate that you beat me to upgrading(even though I had mine on for a little bit). lol:slap:

Aww, lunch date. That's so sweet.

They really do make a cute couple................:icon_bigg


Looking good Josh. Time for another 1jz burnout video. We can't let Kwnate have the only one. As soon as my clutch is broke in, I'm going to do one.

hahahahaha you guys crack me up.

it wasn't a lunch date LOL

anywho, the car is awesome, i love power the band. it was a little to smooth like the boost was creeping then we realized that the tension bolt on the top of the WG was only held in by 3 threads, so we tightened it up and it hits harder now.

the car is a BLAST to drive. inside the lexus dealer they said it sounded like a sportsbike flying by hahahaha. inside the car it has an LM race car tone to it. i love it. im very happy i never sold it.

and joe even if i DID beat you to it.....i had to watch my baby get pushed by a semi's trailer to get this set up :(

Do you break up at higher rpm? like 5800+?

i break up round there to i wonder what it is. i'm running the ngk 6097's. that's what you're running as well right josh?
Check your gapping. They come with a .42 which too much. .28 is where you should be although I opted for .25 to be safe when running high boost. (20+)
