Cool. I saw on your photo page 21, your boost gauge is the same as mine. How are you getting -14 vacuum when mine was only idling at -9??? I am confused. I think it has to do with the fact I have a air filter at the back of my inlet manifold... pretty sure this is the issue for me. I assume your inlet manifold has no filter at the back 3/4" thing?

also, that harness looks very nice.
account2x, looking good man.
what did you have to do to power the ignition/injection on that harness? my brain melted while trying to help Mark with his 1jz>sc400 swap, as the SC400 ignition/injection main/efi relay is different and has different pins.

so dipping further into this exhaust debacle. i decided to finally get a smaller hotside for my turbine wheel.
there were no ledgible stamping on the iron to tell me what cfm's the original one was. so last minute i went to a local diesel shop and come to find out it was a 18. and 21 was the biggest for the non wastegated h1c.
so i was either going to pick up this item.

or get the used 16 for 100 beans. i decided on the later just to try it out. and to used something new for an downpipe adapter.

the new one does look notably smaller. not too crazy like the 9cfm i was going to get though. also had to cut off one of my mani braces as it was too close to the turbo return line.

so back with this crap again. i purchased a sc300 ac condensor(not compressor) from the junkyard for $18.00 beans. placed it inside the car(perfect fit of course). but wait!!!

holy ****. threw away all the damn bolts.. now it's time to hit up the jy again tomorrow i guess. but still need that damn line for a sc400.

more getting hosed on this air conditiong line crap.
so figuring out that the earlier sc300 tubes wouldn't work and the fact that my black tube was broken. i figured id try dremeling one of the port bolt's to try to make it work.
![](http://i1062.photobucket.com/albums/t493/supersayianjim2/project%20scorer%202/oopsshouldnthadshavedthis.jpg)
no dice. and the fact that this tube was broke.
![](http://i1062.photobucket.com/albums/t493/supersayianjim2/project%20scorer%202/brokenblackpipe.jpg)
so i pretty much needed a new evap core. where the hell do i find one??
LUCKILY!! i went to the u pull it on omaha n.e. and they had a 1994 sc"300" there. heres where the crazy starts. the evap is hidden under the dashboard on the passenger side obvilously.
![](http://i1062.photobucket.com/albums/t493/supersayianjim2/project%20scorer%202/wheretheevaphidesout.jpg)
lots of philips head screws to take out. and here's the evap i need.
![](http://i1062.photobucket.com/albums/t493/supersayianjim2/project%20scorer%202/sc400evap.jpg)
these things get very very dirty. dosen't look like they are a servicable item. so i can just imagine how my 180k mile evap looks?
found a guy with a hacksaw and ended up with this finished product
![](http://i1062.photobucket.com/albums/t493/supersayianjim2/project%20scorer%202/thenewpartineed.jpg)
and this has an intact black pipe and all i need. the crazy part is this is the same size as my original 400. wht the fak did lexus make things so complicated between models??
