No oil residue. All crankcase connections are dry and clean for me.

I initially was thinking you meant a full PCV delete from your earlier comment. You still have most of the system in place, just one breather tube is now a direct vent. From what I recall, the abundance of breathers is the issue in releasing a catch can for the Supra. If it works, it works...

I don’t know. Every engine is different and I don’t know enough on the B58 to have an opinion on dicking around with the crankcase ventilation. The farthest I’d go is installing a catch can which cleans the crankcase exhaust vapors before passing back through the engine.

Totally normal. You have removed your biggest emission reducer by removing the factory catalytic converters to install the downpipe. They make high flow catted downpipes. You won’t get the same increase in HP, but you will get a good bit more HP than the factory setup and you won’t have...

I had a bubba in a straight piped Silverado wanting to race today. The issue is that I was caravanning with my service truck to go to a job site. Hard to explain that it is not the time or place while I’m moving 60 mph rolling down the highway with coworkers in tow. Poor guys were really...

I believe it is to provide an intake into the crankcase to provide fresh air to flush blow-by through the PCV valve. This is for emissions and to keep crankcase pressure at desired levels.

Wont happen without lengthening the wheelbase. Otherwise you have the rear wheel wells to contend with.

It puts out roughly 335hp at the wheels. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.caranddriver.com/news/amp27543113/2020-toyota-supra-dyno-horsepower/

Suntek Ultra Matte comes in 72” sheets. Xpel can be stretched to make it seamless over the hood. I had my entire car wrapped in Suntek Ultra Matte so I have seen the 72” roll in person. A few others have had Xpel Stealth applied with stretched film to give a seamless hood install as well...

Glad to brighten y’all day. Guess who isn’t phased by the “its a BMW comments.”

So they went over the whole sensor and bumper in one continuous film piece? The film will never stick if that is the case. The smallest of rock chips and even paint touch up can cause the film to bubble. A whole sensor would be hopeless. They should be able to cut the sensors free and leave...

Well it is my DD and I’m in my car for 2-4 hours a day. The back of my mind item is what sound proofing will do to my warranty. The weight alone will be between 150-250 lbs depending on what I can get away with. That could be half the load allowance of the car. At that point any...

My PPF covers the parking sensors. They cut rounds to place over the sensor flats and I’ve had no issues with Suntek Ultra Matte over them. If they didn’t pull your bumper, then it sounds like your car wasn’t fully cured before delivery and you just need to let it dry out. I would either have...

This looks like a matchbox car someone stepped on and now it doesn’t roll anymore.

You hit the nail on the head. Lots of fiefdoms and no cooperation. The current Supra is a product of that. If there was solidarity, the Supra and the next RC F or LC would have shared an entire platform and/or power train. It may not have been an in-line six, but that is a damned small...

Your right in that road noise murders this system. I’m kinda stuck. I either sound proof or I replace and amplify everything else going deaf to get over the road noise on the interstate. Replacing the subs and tuning the system helped. Taking down the 5khz and 10khz a couple ticks cleaned...

Can’t take life too seriously.

The factory sub channel cuts out around 200-220 Hz so they have a low pass filter on those outputs somewhere lower than that. The issue in using that for your signal is low end frequencies are not constant enough even when played loud to keep the LC2i from timing out. What I did to fix it was...

The signal is pretty flat for being in a car. I noticed that when I ran some sweeps before EQing. That is why it sounds so terrible to most. Flat typically doesn’t sound good. A JBL or similar house curve typically grades better on listenability.

It was more as an example. They are going to chip away at improvements / options than lay it all on the table in one go. I don’t disagree that retooling cost money. It is always easier to get a company to spend X over 5 years than 3X in one year even though it cost more long term. I deal...
