When I get the "rps MAX" clutch kit installed (hopefully Wednesday), the car is scheduled to go back (eventually ) so they can finish the tune. I'm also working on a HUGE How-To NA-T guide for "newbies." I'm going to include all the typical mistakes most people make when doing this project for the first time. It will have video and many pictures from my project. I want to make sure no one else makes the same mistakes I did 
. For Example:* When replacing the NA pump with a supra TT fuel pump, you MUST bypass the main fuel relay switch, thereby providing a constant 12 volt voltage to the pump. Dinosaur performance discovered this problem since the car would not get proper fuel when the throttle was applied more than a "little bit." The symptom was the engine would shut off when you pressed the throttle more than a little. Giving the fuel pump a constant voltage fixed it

Running a thicker wire directly off the battery to the fuel pump

. Car is eating gas like crazy...about 100 miles to one tank of fuel! It also bogs and stutters..not very driveable. It has very bad hot-start issues where it won't starts 
...The problem is I need the car driveable asap since it's my only car
