My car is an SLE automatic... but the V6 is no joke.
I dont have any mods to the engine as of yet.... so my question would be, are you planning on Dynoing the car before, and after?
:evilbat:
That would be hot! :drinking: ... cuz then you guys get to post actual power gains!

oh yeah, I work in manhattan. I get 2 days off during the week, so Im down.

awesome, so when i am ready, you can come down? i would need the car for 2 days probably. i'd give you like a prototype system for the ride home and then when the final product comes around i'd give you one of those.

Don't jump the gun, while this sound spromising, so do a ton of other things that have come along.

This would really upset me if I no longer have a 1MZ and this comes out. Although I may be able to get my hands on a high milage supra and separate built engine for about $13-14k in which case I would never for the rest of my life be upset. It's not going to happen cause I would need to borrow too much money, but damn wouldn't that be nice.

jhenty is going to be my solara gen 1-1.5 tester. As it goes right now, it is going to be a couple of weeks before we'll be ready to take on the projects because my partner and i are putting all of our own money into getting a shop set up in NYC and into getting my car running properly. Right now, my job sucks and i dont make much money, so its tough... but when im ready J will be down and we will have parts out for you guys :)
