or could he have a 87 that was manufactured in mid-late 86? my first one was like that ?the car isnt marroon is it? could be my old one ..hahahaha...do u have any other electronics onthe car? like Boost controller,safc,Fcd or anything like that? is the car lowered at all? that couldbe your wheel hop issue, if your still 4x4, stock springs are seriuosly 4x4's there huge

 

no my car is blue.i have an afc2 and i have an avcr comeing should be hear today or the next. no its not lowerd its actully really high. looks like ass lol. i have lexus is300 wheels on it. back tires farely new. as fare as i now im on stock springs. and still have the electronic heads on the towers but im not sure if thay even work anymore since i made it stick. i do need all my front end bushings changed. havent been to tampa cause my lower controll arms do the macarena some times. toyota wantes to sell me the hole damn arm. cant find anyone that just sells the bushings.

 

(1989 Toyota Supra Turbo, 3" exhaust BOV 14psi.) got my air on is that on stock turbo? are those all your mods? NO lexus mas or injectors? How far can you push stock turbo without breaking it?

 

Tiny, Nice to see you have the car running. Are you considering going out to the track tonight? I was thinking about it



I think at one time Bill was telling me about an early early 87 car that was built in 86 that was turbo and was slightly different than the normal 87 turbo cars. Bill??....

 

not sure about the track tonight i whent last week and only got to make one run. cars running as ghettofide as it is lol. how yours? any slips yet? im kinde of lost on mine. i made it stick some say change ecu others say it doesent matter. no idea what to set boost at on stock turbo. some say 9 max others say 12 or 15. got avcr comeing today i hope. allready paid for it. and might be ordering a wideband today depends on my check.

 

Wait.....You were there last week? I was too but didn't see you there.

I have ran in the 1/8th but no 1/4 mile slips yet. I would like to bring home a decent one tonight We will see.

 

1/8? what track are you talking about? bradenton? my 1/8 was 9.something cant find slip right know.

 

tiny, sounds like if your car was running strong, you should be putting down 260rwhp, give or take 10rwhp. that should net you close to a 14.0 at say 100-104mph in the traps. w/ the IS300 wheels and tires, you should be cutting 2.4-2.6 60' times. Its not a bad setup, your base timing is too aggressive though. its more than likely that you dont ahve enough fuel to compensate for your bumped timing. its probably running on the lean side, knocking because the ecu is advancing the timing too far from the reset base of 15* BTDC. when this happens, the ecu will see the knock and pull the timing back down to base advance. this is severely limiting your power. when you are raising the boost on the stock turbo, stock ecu and limited fuel, you should PULL timing out of you base setting, say pull it back to 8* BTDC. this will allow you to stay further away from the Knock threshold than you currently are. especially using pump gas with the lack of fuel control/volume isnt going to help your situation.

Bill's old white 87 was a VERY VERY early 87. it had a completely different IC pipe route setup and a few other oddities. but for the 86.5 Model year, there were no turbo versions sold. if the Title says 1986.5, it was not a factory turbo. the Pre89's come with a firewall build tag. itll tell you what rear end your car came with and what tranny it came with. If its a real 86.5, itll say "W58" on there. theres also a sequence for the rear diff gear ratio, which will probalby check out to be a 4.30 if its a real 86.5. If this is the case, your car is a "SPORT" model, which explains the TEMS. This means your old rear end was an LSD version of the 4.30 gear ratio. This could be valuable to the right person; even though turbo cars like taller gears because it loads the engien more and produces more shaft RPM from the turbocharger for higher airflow rates.

hope that helps... also check to see if you have a factory oil cooler bolted to your car, itd be located right below the stock coolant resivoir. also check to see if you have a GTE oil filter mount; if your oil filter screws directly onto the block, its still an NA block. all the GTE stuff bolts onto the Na block, so its possible you might have a NA block converted to turbo stuffs.

 

hay sorry i havent responded havent checked back on this in a few. but know you got me scratching my head. i wounder if it was n/a. im going right know to check all you have told me thanks man.

 

Do you have an oem spoiler on the back? That can help us tell you what year it is depending on if the third brake light is square or trapezoidal. I dont remember checking it when you dropped by to pick up my exhaust for your car.

I personally wouldnt run more then 12 psi stock turbo and intercooler. Also, the mini intercooler thing right next to the intercooler is the external oil cooler, easy to tell if you have it or not.
Its on the right of the intercooler in this pic
