OK so now that i finally have my 2nd gen 3sgte running right... its time to start with the upgrades...
Now what has already been done: EGR eliminated cold start eliminated TVIS eliminated custom side feed intake 2.5" intercooler piping with FMIC Garrett T25 turbo 0.5mm oversized forged JE pistons eagle forged rods tial 38mm wastegate 3" custom exhaust and many other little things check my profile for full list.. SO as almost anyone with the 2nd gen... first thing that i absolutely wanted to change was the AFM... grrrrr i hate that thing now there are basically three options: 1. 3rd gen ECU, someone at mr2oc.com sells a full kit to upgrade your stock wiring harness to fit the 3rd gen ECU, its $700 including ecu and new map sensor and much more 2. piggyback ecu (i looked into the Greddy E-manage) 3. full standalone EMS **** important info on the greddy e-manage**** this thing is not made for the 3sgte... it causes nothing but trouble for it. I recently spoke with Dr. Tweak and he says to stay away as well. Not only is it built poorly for a Toyota engine (it can't interpret some of the ignition signals) but Greddy is also bankrupt so getting help for this thing is nearly impossible... stay away and you will be happy  so after some consideration.. my first upgrade in a string of upgrades is a giant jump but i think well worth it in the end...  let me know what you think! -------------------- Breaking Axles...

wikipedia has a comparison between the different types of sensors.
