i suppose the comment was my opinion, i don't like things stuck allover, the the turbo timer, controller and gauges, id much prefer a custom panel with A pillar gauges perhaps

yea i understand, all coments welcome!

 

 

i dont know if the Profec controller is setup correctly,

 

 

the unit says its set to 1bar, yet it seems to boost to 1.3 in 6th?

then the warning light comes on the controller?

 

boost controllers cant restrict boost, only raise it, therefore you probably dont have a restrictor ring in the exhaust (or its tooo large) therefore boosting as high as the wastegate will allow it.

 

Pay your membership too!

thanks dude, it claims to have the restrictor ring in the exhaust, but il need to look into it.

 

whats the safe level on the stock turbos/engine/injectors?

 

15PSI?

I think they are the only stock wheels i'va actually liked on a Supra, and that'sdown to them being white :)

 

I disagree with DNK, i think the dash would look nice painted white. I had a White Trans Am and painted part of the dash white and it looked really smart :)

 

You had a White Trans Am :rolleyes:your probably right Burt:d but instead of painting it maybe getting it flocked so it had a matt finish would be better

i havent mentiond spraying the dash white?! :p

 

 

na its the origonal white, the guy said he had the front splitter sprayed tho as it had been cracked etc.

 

its suprisinlgy low.

 

 

the Supra is far more superior to the 300zx/fairlady.

 

maybe my Z with the boost turned up would be similar speed, but i trust the 2JZ much more, it sounds sweet as, no taps or rattles or smoke.
