seems like it... I have a lineup on a SupraTT fuel rail and injectors for a decent price if the guy still has it... I wonder if the SupraTT fuel rails are compatible...

550cc injectors are too big for stock computer....so forget the TT injectors and rail...i have a stock fuel rail with the 440cc but custom clips

11.9 was at 15psi on pump gas same as my sig
im running a toyomoto head gasket..lowers compression to the 8.5 to 1 ratio

you can use any VPC for any car...just have to have toyomoto chip it for 440cc injectors.

for higherboost i just need to turn on the additional injectors and tune them...which i have but have never done...the car at 15psi is a hell of alot of fun....now im going to haltech with 720cc injectors so ill be running higher boost..<right now i have 440cc primaries and 2 550cc additionals>with the additional injector set up you can land over 500 rwhp..i know of an old toyomoto creation that landed 540 rear wheel on the set up...and if i tuned mine and cranked the boost id be in the same area

i did a clint one time at the track..with race gas and 19psi....and slicks..launched at 7k in 1st gear..came out hard...then pulled 2nd and exploded the pressure plate...it was ugly......so this is why i havent been a big track racer..it gets expensive breaking drivveline parts..

as for the compuer ECU chip...i dont reccommend Jet..they do sticker tunning...they put a sticker on it and if you open the box it voids the warranty..but they never change the chip.....toyomoto does a custom board for the car the removes the rev limit and ups fuel and timing....i have it in my car....its a G-force ECU...i have had it for 2 years......

if i missed something please ask..i dont know about the IT market here in miami and tampa..im a freakin fireman..lol....please ask if you have more questions..Jeff

What was the price to have them do your ECU? I've had good experience with JET, but that was with a trans am.

Are there any "affordable" apartments in the Miami area? I mean in a nice part of town....not where I'm gonna get gunned down every Thursday I haven't looked at Rent.net yet....I guess I should!

are you sure you had a good experience with jet?

they don't even do anything... its hilarious watching people buy chips from them when its just a stock chip with the limiters removed...

G-Force does good work; I've seen evidence of that on RX-7s...

JET chips are a joke on imports..i have seen a computer tuned by jet taken apart....and the factory chip was still in the computer.......the g-force is expensive...like750-1000 im not sure...but it adjusts everything...as for apartments...you can find a good one from like 800 a month?....i think..just have to make sure parking is good.....and just remember...no supercharged SC300s are allowed here in miami..only turboed we like fast cars..not whiney cars..lol..Jeff

My wife and I try to make it to Panama City once a year.
That club (Club LaVela) is pretty amazing 7000ppl capacity!.... Spinnaker is not too shabby, either... Better Bass in the main room at Spinnakers, though. We like the underground at LaVela.

yo SC300TURBO
I was reading over this again and was wondering

I've got my 95 SC300 5-speed now

And I was wondering... you said 500rwhp is possible with the additional injector setup right? is that on pump gas? what kind of boost is that? and i'm betting that a FMIC would be needed too right?

Doesn't Toyomoto have the sidemount in their kit? or do they offer a kit with a FMIC?

Suprastore.com has a good deal on theirs and it has a FMIC; but they quote only 320hp
