    I'm putting my money on timing. Either ECU or bad knock sensors.

    Btw, for a long time I was wondering why the hell the stock TB gasket is shaped like a "D." Found this today and ordered a TRD gasket:

    If you plan a trip with Monte, be sure to tell him it starts a day or two before it actually does, then he might be on time. :D

    I think its timing too. Redoing the knock sensors is gonna be a total bitch though..

    And i have no idea how to monitor timing really. Hopefully if i ever find my dads L2 it will :notsure:

    And yea i already got that. Supposed to come with the SC.

    Ha....


    fuck you :luvya:

    No...not yet..maybe for my old supra..

    I think you need an OBDII reader and the right software. I have the reader but never bought the software.

    Dang man, was hoping to pop in here and see some sick burn out vids.

    Did you try to run the s/c by itself when you got it or did you install everything all at once? I doubt your issues have anything to do with your tune, especially at your altitude. It's probably a more fundamental issue with the s/c.

    Sounds like you've tried almost everything though. Maybe try the ECM without the s/c to see if it's actually doing what it's supposed to :notsure:

    Good luck brother!
