I am making this thread to document my two builds as I am constantly working on both cars. I work in the auto industry Mon-Thurs but I am also a photographer and shoot weddings on the weekend but I will keep this thread stocked with up-to-date photos. I am...
I remember the old days of first at 1000 miles and then every 3k but on these newer vehicles the service manual just says every 10k miles. Since I'm pretty hard on my oil I am doing 5k but at some point you will be wasting money if your oil is not degrading some by the time you change it, it's...
I will be doing mine pretty soon as I've put a hard 3,000 miles on it so far. I called Toyota to ask if this would be included in the Toyota Care and they said I would have to wait for 10,000 miles on it. I will not be waiting that long so maybe at 5,000 miles I'll get it done and let you know...
I didn't mean to double post this build. I couldn't find this original thread and we posted it at the same time. Haha. I literally check every morning for updates from Papadakis.
Well it looks like Papadakis has now started making some parts for it and he is inching closer and closer to the end goal. I mentioned in the other thread that they may use an air to air intercooler and delete the OEM water to air system and that's the path they are taking. The are designing a...
Will do! All I needed was an Android device and an OTG cable which Twisted Tuning sells so I bought a tablet and I've been waiting on the cable from twisted tuning for 12 days now and it still hasn't shippedo_O. They won't return emails or answer posts on here.
Yes the JB4 is on my Supra. Here are my numbers on the Supra at the wheel on 93 octane no meth:
333whp 385tq bone stock
356whp 441tq Map 1 and Intake
391whp 468tq Map 3 and Intake
424whp 482tq Map 3, Intake and Catless Downpipe
Torque comes in hard at 2700 rpm.
Warranty companies are like insurance companies. They are in the business of making money not paying claims. So you will pay more to them than they will pay you otherwise they wouldn't be in the business. There might be a small percentage of people who covered some repair that might have been...
No worries man. I'll just use the JB4 for on the fly datalogging and monitoring temps at that point. You could make further changes with the JB4 if you added meth or have other options. JB4 and MHD actually work together on tunes and it's called a back end flash.
For me it's very convenient to...
I ordered my set of BC Forged MLE10's in 19x9.5 and 19x11. I will be running 285/295 fronts and 315/325 rears.
They will be black gloss inner and outer barrels and matte black center with exposed titanium hardware. As soon as I get them in I will post pics.

I'm on JB4 right now and no issues with it being glitchy at all. It's nice having the JB4 app so you can monitor all data from your phone and change maps on the fly. I am working with MHD Tuning for a tune that will work with the JB4. I should have some updates here soon.
Bottom line is that if you are worried about warranty coverage leave the tune alone. You're probably safe with a catback and intake but any type of tune will most likely be found and if you do have to go through the process of filing a suit you may end up regretting it. That same money could...
Yeah I ran maps 1-3 and datalogged each one and they were all good!
So far the car has experienced: 7 dyno pulls, 1/4 Mile Runs, Tail of the Dragon runs 10+, and roll racing. Pushing 6psi over stock and absolutely no issues so far. The datalogging on the fly has been super convenient for this...
There weren't any options out for intakes when I wanted it so I drew a new senor flange in CAD and had it machined. I took the time to design it exactly like the OEM. I fabricated a new intake with a provision for the new flange, TIG'd it and got it powdercoated black. I paired it with a K&N...
I am currently the only one using JB4 on the Supra. I have been working with Terry and have had it on there for almost 4 weeks now. I made 424whp and 482ft/lbs on Map 3 and that is on 93 octane with intake and downpipe. He is not working on a calibration as this was a standard B58 JB4 and...
I have put 3000 miles on mine and definitely some issues:
My rear hatch cover is rattling basically all the time.
The seats definitely make contact with the rear hatch cover cross bar. If you put the seat back to comfortably seat someone 6' or above it actually presses against the silver bar...
Any reason you guys don't respond back to emails? I placed an order last week for a cable last Wednesday so I can work with MHD on a tune and it doesn't even show that it's shipped yet. I emailed you the following day and no response. Order # TTUNE-2963-REF
Just a heads up. I have an intake on my A90 and Summit Racing sent me the wrong K&N filter (they sent me a stubby like that) and I was headed to the dyno the next day so I had to run it. I did a pull with the stubby and a back to back pull with the stock intake and it gained 6whp with the stock...
