I see a reflex keeping that torqbyte company. I'm sure with all those extra failure points a DNF is likely. Oh wait we are talking about car bowling, so no problem getting 8 seconds of functionality...

I'm assuming it's being used for what it's designed for, meth control, but wanted to ask.

Direct Port Meth. Torqbyte is seriously bad ass and in a league of its own when it comes to meth controllers.
Agreed. Which is why I was interested in how you were using it. I used a torqbyte setup as a fuel pump controller for my surge tank on my Evo 10. Great products.

Very cool. The meth set up is slick. You make a full fuel map and so you can control DC based on Boost / RPM

I too am trying to figure out why my diff leaks. Im going to start cutting panels and will let you know when I confirm what to fix. .... or just wipe it and leave it.

Thanks, Jesse. This issue, in one form or another is not uncommon, it seems.

Today I learned: keep modifying your supra until rear diff leaks are the least of your worries.
And "Ignore diff leaks at your own peri!"

Where is the photo of the leak at the driveshaft? Those are the axles. I still think it's from the breather but whatever.
What kind of oil should he use to fill the motor back up with once they removed excess gear oil from the diff?

Peanut oil.
That's what Monroe allegedly used to (or still does) use in their bargain-basement economy shock absorbers. I wouldn't be surprised, and it would explain why they rode like rocks when cold.

I don't completely ignore the slight Diff vent hole leak. I wipe it off when I think about it.
How do you know for certain that it is from the vent hole? Based upon comments here, the oil gets blown all over the place, making its original exit location difficult to pinpoint.

I could tell you how to make certain but not sure if you are interested.
