I have to get the pile of scrap running right before I can mod it. :mad: I guess that is what I get for buying a car with 125K miles on it.

What kind of problems are you having?

I am having problems with the second turbo spooling, a boost leak and the tranny overheating.

Bring it to Castle Rock and we can try to diagnose/effect repairs. I bet I the turbo spooling problem is a VSV or the EGCV. I had a similar problem, and rather than buy new parts I set the car up TTC.

For a quick diagnosis we can do that to your car. It'll make a believer out of you. ;) Power comes on harder and in a much more predictable manner.

Boost leak where? Have you gone over all the IC plumbing connections?

For your tranny problem you can by a tranny cooler ($50) for a temp fix. How can you tell your tranny is over heating?

I might have to take you up on that offer after I get moved.

Yeah, I have been looking into a tranny cooler. I just want to make sure that I ger one that will not interfere with the install of a FMIC later.

On a hard highway drive for 20-30 miles it drives fine on the freeway but when I get off and stop at the light when I try to get it going again it hesitates and then lunges and then hesitates again before it gets moving. It is the lunge that makes me think that it is the tranny. Temp gauge in the car reads normal and if I pull over for 5-10 min. everything is back to normal.

Dude, where do you keep comming up with this 17 sec Supra shit?

I ran a 15.9 with a shitty launch, one turbo and a fucked up tranny.

You should be able to pickup a B&M cooler at checker auto and mount it on the driver side. It will not get in the way of the intercooler at all.

Good news is that nothing is broke. With the recent crappy weather I decided to do some mandatory maintence on the Supra. I had some valve cover gaskets that were leaking a little. Since I had them off I decided to get them powder coated along with some other things. I estimate the Supra will be down for about 2 weeks while I get that done and work on finding a oil leak and rebuilding my brakes. Damn I wish I had money for a fuel system. It would be so easy to pop in some new injectors and a fuel rail. :(

Mark - did you see the fuel system that the guys at Titan Motorsports (Angel Robles/Jesus Rivera) came up with? It's complete and MUCH less $$ than any of the "other guys".

As long as the car is down, sell some stock or some blood or something and do the fuel. Your turbo is BEGGING to run at 25psi, and you know you want to. Yes - you do. Then there will be no question as to how fast the car REALLY is... :)

Yeah I read that, it was like 1700. Trust me I want to do the fuel now, I don't want to take the intake of again, that was a pain!
