Lmao. I try to avoid flying all i can. I suck at it

 

@Speedytech7 you running a 1500 or 750?

not going to do it soon, but my buddys going to grab w/e i want if he gets his usual deal for me

 

I'm running a 750, 2500 has some more IO and a mild feature set improvement. I think sometime next year I'm going to trade up to an R3

 

i'll probably spring for the 2500.. the R3 is the plan for my JDM mr2... i dont think the taco needs that

 

You might think twice on that since you'll be buying in fresh. Compare the price of a 2500 and a wideband can module to the price of an R3 (which has a wideband module built in already)

 

fair.. i'll have to see what his pricing is.. haltech usually runs a deal around this time of year for suppliers

 

I'm considering the R3 just because it cuts down on physical wiring and it adds all the remainder of the features I want for the taco. Then I'll probably put the 750 in the cruiser and get out of OBD1 land and all of its NLA parts.

 

i've only got plans on the 98 and the 01 taco getting haltechs plus the 98 mr2... so i should just go R3 on all of them lol

 

I mean the 750 is awesome on a budget and for a regular SC taco that you're not doing anything special on it is way more than enough. There's like nothing you can really do with the SC control wise anyway so you're not really missing out on anything with a 750.

 

eh. maybe 750 for the 98. assuming it can at least handle the methanol


the 01 i do plan on going a BIT more advanced on shit.. just because why not..
the mr2 with the 2gr.. well i want to try and hit stupid numbers n/a. so far the guys running the 2gr on a nexus love it

 

The 750 can do methanol and flexfuel just fine. Thankfully all elite models and Nexus models tune in the NSP software now so there's no learning curve between the two anymore

 

methanol injection i dont know if i have enough I/o? i havent looked into it that much, its really something i want to tackle next year on the 98


basically just to cool the rotors a bit.. not looking for a 7th injector setup. why? i dont know im weird

 

I dunno that it is really necessary with that little SC when you have proper fueling TBH, but yeah you'll have an extra output for it. I still have a couple left over. You won't have a boost control solenoid so you can re-task that output even

 

eh, i think anything to help drop IAT a bit would be worth while. fueling is obviously easy to deal with with the haltech

the "Free" FMU has eliminated all the ping on the stock pulley for me right now.. all i plan on doing is going to a 2.1 pulley and some port work since the blower is due for a rebuild anyway. nothing crazy.. i just dont want to deal with the god damn split second shit half ass fixing the stock ecus limits

 

the 01 will get a bit more exotic treatment (And may just go straight to the newer magnuson now.. we'll see..) but im not really wanting stupid big power from the trucks anymore... the mr2 handles that for me

 

Yeah certainly nice to have all your timing and fueling. I'd find a some cheap 450cc injectors, lose the FMU, and dial that thing in on the tiny pulley. I guess lower IAT would be good but TBH there isn't a big change in feel on the first pull of the day with a haltech and SC rig vs a heat soaked one... it doesn't have a whole ton to give in general. If it had more headroom I'd say lower the IAT and hammer it. But you can't spin that relic very fast and they don't ping when fueled right so save the extra fluid and tuning maybe.

 

yea i know. we'll see what i do.


i do plan on removing the waste spark for the 01.. just because im swimming in coil packs from GR engines i can utilize. and it can give me a bit more finer control since i'd Like to go dual bank. even though unlike the GR... there likely is no benefit

 

Re read my last post... but yeah dual bank might be neat for tuning, but the stock coils are actually really good I haven't ever encountered breakup even with huge fuel loads and higher boost. Going to banked fuel tuning might be nice if you're still gonna run a belt driven intake heater though

 

it may or may not help. the GR it proves to be nice.. bank 1 naturally runs leaner than bank 2 because of the mirrored valve train ramp up being different side to side, but cat cams seems to have addressed this with the profile on the cams... so im waiting to see how they perform on the mister 2.... damnit i have too many projects

 

i need to get an exhaust on the 98 before anything. the TRD header collector is smaller than i had expected.. only 2.25" collector. so im debating on stepping up to 2.5" all the way back or just go 2.25"? i duno.. thats a winter project
