Turbo BS Thread

Seems like LCE runs 10% off promos for various holidays pretty regularly. They even just did one for Valentines a couple weeks ago. Maybe they’ll do one for St Patty’s in a few weeks.

 

Lce clutch ftw. My vote.

 

Those who have the AEM Fic in your tacoma where are you mounting the unit and as far as the vac line can it be t'd into the boost gauge line as long as its going to/coming from the intake after the TB

 

I t'd mine off of one of the tiny little vacuum ports post TB and mounted it in the glovebox.

 

Where did you go through the firewall?

 

Far left side when looking head on at the engine bay, near where the fender connects to the body there is a grommet that leads right to the glove box. I can grab a pic of it later.

 

I went through it where the main harness is at.

 

Had mine run in the right kick panel fits good, but I only had 3 mounting screws.

 

Is the vac line from the AEM supposed to go to one of the three little ports on the TB or the intake ?

 

I did mine off one of the three little ports, it just needs the see vacuum and boost.

 

Does anyone have a suggestion on the best settings

 

I created a base map putting in 440 new injectors 289 stock inj. Max rpm 5500 max boost 10psi and this is what came up. It’s way different than @arcenik’s map.
New^^ @arcenik’s down below Tomorrow I’ll connect the AEM to the truck do the calibration and see what happens this has me nervous

 

Balls to the wall!

 

The base map is just to get you running. it will change dramatically when you start tuning.

 

Side note, did you decide which clutch to purchase? I'd go with the highest torque capacity which is also not a cintered metal disk.

 

I 'm going with the LCE Dual Comp kit- seemed to be the most recommended/reviewed, and the power level is perfect for me. I don't mind a stiffer clutch, especially since the stock one was like a wet noodle and always worried about it slipping on the beaches here on Long Island.

 

Good deal. Does it come with a new flywheel or reuse the OEM one?

 

Reuses the flywheel, so I'll just check it for hotspots and get it resurfaced locally. Called a shop and they said about an hour turnaround time, and $30. I'm not gonna complain lol

 

My local guy chill. Did mine while I waited
