    Thanks guys. I'm good with what I've got for now. Not saying that I won't push for more 6 months from now. Because I will..... : ) Boost was peaking at 15psi but AFRs were super all over the place. It's nice to be back to a safe zone (11.5 throughout) even at 11psi. Try for more again later. Even now pushing the numbers I am in full boost the truck becomes quite scary with LT and no swaybars.....lol.

    Like the new grille way better too. Going to be lots of work to swap all this out and build new custom lights. Still need a hood and a few things.

    That is good! Any pearl you use is going to come out really nice. I'd like a little darker of a blue myself but your truck will look sweet once it's done. You're going to build your rear first though right? Let me know when you want to spray I'll help out.....

    I liked this blue more but then again look at what color mine came out as.....

    Yes. Rear first. Yeah I'm stuck between that one and the deep sea. Once it gets closer I'll order a sample to make my finial decision.

    Sorry for the late advice but you should be adjusting fuel with the fuel map not the MAF map. What size are your injectors?

    42lb injectors. Don't think I have a map.....? Unless it's on my ebc or fic6..... I've been told also that the Supra MAF is compatible and a good upgrade......

    That's a 440 cc? You actually might be bumping up on their capacity then. But yeah the fic has a MAF offset function but it can also directly modify the injector signal (via fuel map). It sounds like your tuners are only using the MAF offset when IMO they should be using only the fuel map and using the MAF offset to correct small changes after the fact.

    Can't keep the name. Apparently @jberry813 has already dangled before me. Cannot disrespect the master......

    All set to convert to 01 - 04.

    The hood is a secret......

    Headlights......well not sure if this gives an idea of the retrofit.....

    FPR needs to be on the intake mani and you need a 250+lph fuel pump. Your injectors are big enough for 350 HP especially with methol. You may want to consider using a 50/50 meth mix too

    Ebay bro......think they were like $160 or so. Do you know the bracket parts that are needed to mount them? I'm 98 00 but converting. I need the core support brackets. Can't find the part #s.
