Please be sure to confirm with him, before you buy your AEM, the exact maximum number of hours of dyno tuning time it will take to get your Mkiv Supra running absolutely perfect in all conditions including cold-starting, hot-starting, good gas mileage for long road trips, low boost on pump gas, high boost on race fuel, etc. etc. Note that (ime) this can take anywhere from eight hours to thirty or more hours. Also note that some tuners charge $100/hr or more PLUS the cost of the dyno itself, which can run an ADDITIONAL $150/hr or more.

Again, good luck with finding the wisp of smoke (I hope it's something easy to correct), and with your planned upgrades.

NB: Please consider posting any help requests in a new thread instead of asking me for help privately. About 99.9+% of the time, private help requests end up covering great information that could be very valuable to other forum members. If you have a good reason for needing the help request to be private, I'll consider it. If not, then why not give everyone else the opportunity to pitch in too, and/or learn from the information? Remember, there's no such thing as a dumb question. We're all here to help within this family of Supra owners.
