Ok another major update. Car is up and running, fmic/pipes still not connected, but FFIM/TB/TC/4runner cap/resistors/injectors all installed. Still have some vac lines not installed, and a bit of cleaning/organizing to do, but it fired right up and the throttle response is amazing. No CEL's, just little things left to do and it should be done in a week or so once the last of the parts arrive.



No videos yet, just started to check for leaks. The accessory belt isnt on cause the PS is being modded for relocation.

to be honest there have been several set backs, but 90% of those have been worked out..just a little more work, some cleaning/painting/welding and it should be done.

BTW, hows the 400 coming along? still having the same issues?

Ill take some and PM them to you tomorrow after noon..although the way its routed right now may not be the final setup, I may shorten some pipes and weld where possible just to get rid of the couplers
