I figured i better start installing some parts while i got the time before the big stuff goes on....today i put on the fuel mod. I remember a post about it being pointless on an N/A solara, but it feels like it cleared up a little hesitation i had in 2nd. Also cruising in 3rd around 30 to 40ish it didn't run so smooth at times, kinda like the filter was getting clogged or something. I guess swapping that fixed it :) Now if i could only find 2 more injectors!! :x

What do you mean by a N/A solara?

N/A means Not Available in my dictionary

n/a = naturally aspirated = no turbo, s/c or n2o

I believe it's only the no turbo or super charger that makes a car Naturally Asprited. Using Nitrious does increase your horsepower significantly, but the air coming into your intake isn't "boosted" in anyways, you'll still be running a vacuum.


Back to thread, that's cool that you got the fuel mod on there and working successfully. Why don't you have a s/c anymore?

Awesome to know. Right now I am concentrating on the motorcycles but the solara soon enough. The carbs just came out of the magna and shims were placed on the needles.

true, but still a significant power adder, so most of the time it's grouped right along with turbo and sc's. I never had an sc...but like SdeA said i'm going turbo :D

It wasn't bad, the hardest part for me was the getting the fitting off the rear bank. I couldn't find a longer socket to take the egr valve off, so i didn't have much room to work with
