General Tune Up For A New Guy

Junkyard_Dog · 09-08-2008, 04:22 PM

Well, I had thought about the flywheel, because of reducing rotational weight and such. I had done some looking around and found some decent parts. Eventually I would like to build up the engine, to make maybe 400 Horses, but I want to produce a lot of torque as well because of all the hills around where I live. Any ideas on how I can attain both, or do I have to go one way or the other?

I'll check on the actuator and see if there are any washers under it. That is something I had not thought of to check and didn't know if there was something wrong with the turbo. I'll keep posted on what all is up with it and try to get up some pics of the Supra

Well, I checked the turbo and it doesn't appear to have any visible modifications to it. I think I am going to start laying parts back to give it a good tune up once I get my other car back on the road. Maybe some new spark plugs, oil change, new wires, radiator hose, and an electric fan conversion. As well as a new timing belt and head gasket. I figure that should about cover everything.
