ok the air measuring apperatis behind the air filter, it is not eh same type as teh turbo cars? sorry for my ignorance but i come from teh land of small block camaro's and trans am's and i always like the mkiii body style and i finaly aquired one last year. CRE you helped me alot on i-supra.com when i first took it apart last year. now its together and running good but i realy don't want to go the way of turbo because that's what everyone does.

Just rivet a stainless steel plate above the exhaust so that it doesnt make your bumper black.

Nope, as I said, the 7M-GE uses a VAFM and the 7M-GTE uses a KVAFM. The differences are pretty well explained in that document I posted the link to. Essentially, the VAF is the most restrictive meter you're going to find.

That said, there are ways to swap it out for something more modern... but it's not too cheap.

I did? Are you sure? All I ever really did over there was give Shaeff a hard time... Well, if I helped I'm glad to have been of assistance and assure you it was entirely accidental. :naughty:

Well, if you're thinking of going with an "all motor" build be forewarned. The 7M just doesn't have the displacement to make much power even with a fortune spent on it. Ask AJ's 88 and Defiant7M...

hey CRE thanks for stepping in and clarifying the AFM differnces. I completely spaced that the NA wasnt KV. I should have realized as mine is NA now, lol. I do know the SAFC allows you to choose the type of AFM and that KV was not the only choice.

No problem, don't forget, that mine and AJ's don't run either. Woot!
