Oh ok I c

hey ok i didnt want to say anything but looking at your ic piping i see something wrong. when u do try and boost or when you get your car running... the air temp sensor plug isnt suppost to go onto your ic piping, hook that up to your turbo inlet or aka turbo intake.... if u hook that up to your ic piping that will either pop out or cause you to have boost leak!..just looking after you man..ooh yeah once again turn your oil feed line to the side or change it so that the sensor is replacing it...just a little input..

Thanx dude...I didn't know about.that is there a way That I can get it so that the sensor won't pop out?...and yah I turned the oil line to the side...

Ok guys I got my safc back on and got my celi started thanx to jim...and we also tried to get the AFR to 14.7 but it's hard idk how to get the right settings though...another thing is that wenever I rev it higher like 2-3rpm it wouldn't go any higher...the cool part is that I can here my turbo start to spool by then....after a couple more times of trying me celi died out...and now it doesn't start but cranks..I mean it would start but it would idle it dies again..I even put the setting back to what jim said and it does the same thing...need help with tuning guys my friend bailed out on me cuz he went back to Arizona uti

RL is wrong.

on our NA cars, that we turbo we WANT that sensor in our IC piping. you need to find a way to create a tight seal so that it dont leak.
since we dont have a MAT, we use the IAT to let the motor know when hot air is coming in so that it uses the compensation maps the stock ECU has to add extra fuel because of the extra heat.
your still stalling out because the car needs to be tuned.
in the low and high throttle map, pull out 20% from 2500 to redline.
that will get you started and running.
as you go thru the RPM range at anything over 30% throttle, you will be on the high throttle map, so that is where you will want to pull fuel.
any time your in boost, you want the a/f to be ~11.5:1
anything out of boost, you want it to be as close to 14.7:1 as you can get it.

This is probably half my fault. John asked me and I agreed that with it setup as it is it's going to blow out of the hole. But I didn't bother to elaborate that it does need to be in the cold pipe [so as to show true intake temps] but needs to be sealed very well.
Sorry about that.



Azn - it needs to be said that since you are doing a simple tune just to keep the car running until you can get it to the dyno - you need to be carefull not to boost it too hard or generally beat on it at all untill you get it tuned properly. Be careful and finish this up properly and you'll be happy and safe.
Get your self to a Dyno and get a proper tune

Ok so basically I need to get my celi tuned...the problem here is that we had a dyno before but ever since 1320performance moved they don't have the dyno anymore...so icant tune it the way I want to...I know this guy who knows how to tune without a dyno...he did his supra street tuned...I hope he can do it for me...but I heard that he charges $150 an hour...all I'm trying to get out of my celi is just to run well with no problems that's it... I hope that it won't be that pricey...it would save me a lot it anyone here can teach me how to tune so I can save money...

the right tuning now will save you choke money later. Frick too bad the suppah ferry is out. i would've brought my trailer to maui (using my celica ) and drag your car to munkey works to get it tuned. Sean is the man

Yeah I know who you're talking about, and he is extremely good in tuning toyota's Regardless of the price, you should ask him to tune it for you. I'll give you a call though if i'm able to help you out with the tuning. I've been really busy lately.

The stalling almost sounds like a map sensor problem. I'd check for vacuum leaks between the map sensor and the manifold (I hope you didn't splice into that hose for the boost gauge), make sure it's plugged in (I know I forgot to do this once... lol), and make sure the SAFC connections to the map sensor wires are wired correctly and have good connections. Of course, any of this would cause a CEL though.

And I don't mean to advertise here, but I have a mild steel two bolt flange for the primary o2 sensor that I got from KO racing and never used. just needs to be welded to your downpipe and bolt the o2 sensor right up. PM me if you're interested

Hey guys guess what?......I'M OFFICIAlLy Boosted baby!!... I did pressures setting for my safc to get me started with my tuning...then my friend came over to tweek on the tuning somore..and man it feels great!! I ran to another problem though...I HAD a oil leak from the top somewere by the valve cover next by the oil cap....there was oil skirting out...luckly I found where it was comming from...this mornng I checked the spark plugs to c if oil was comming out of it... Then I noticed that the NUT that was holding down the valve cover was loose...super loose...so I checked all the NUTS and it was all Super Loose!...I knew that it was the reason why the oil was skirting out so I tightened all the nuts and took it out for a spin then I popped my hood to c it oil skirted out...and nothing no oil at all!! So it's all g and took it out for a spin down south for a party and it runs good...well I would like to personally thank presure2,Shannon,jim, all members who helped me and all the 5sfte members for inspiring me to do this project...and mainly I would like to thank 6gc.net for getting me to where I am at if it wasn't for this site then I would get this far!!!thanks
5SFTE!!!

congrats man. enjoy the boost!

Yeah yeah yeah!! I'm calling you this week to check it out.

OOP! my bad P...i wasnt sure if 5s turbo cars needed that temp to be in the ic piping or in the turbo intake so thanks for correcting me.. i was just worry that it would pop out after so much lb of boost just point out things that didnt look right to me .

Yah guys soon I'll have pix and I'll even throw in a video...thanks again guys

where dem vids or you pulling away from a supra???

Brah Jon you miss out nah just joking. I got a chance to ride in the boosted 6gc earlier this week and it pulls pretty hard. But guarantee with the right tune it can put out alot more then what i've experienced. Oh yeah we had a "small kine" photoshoot after I got off work since Emarc's car being shipped out to the mainland tomorrow, so had to squeeze in some pix before then. I'll post it up in the multimedia section in a bit.
