I believe that was @EJ. who was going to install the mishimoto. If I recall, I believe @MicheleAbbate has the same set-up on her racecar

We have been running the delicious tuning flex fuel kit for about a year now. And now this is one of their flash and go tunes. I'm supposed to meet up with him weekend after this to figure out my stalling issue. There's a thought It might have to do with our lightweight flywheel.
My friends at the shop that installed it said it rips pretty hard and that even under half throttle the rear likes to break loose. I already have wider tires I guess I might have to look into going even larger :-) |

Switch the frs to a somg setup is no big deal compared to my celica. I got to remove my blower, injectors computer and put exaust back every other year. |

I went with an upgraded clutch when I was still on 93. The old clutch, which had 70k on it, still looked brand new with no signs of slipping. On the other hand, I have replaced slipping clutches in more than a few turbo 86s with less power/tq than what I am making now. Some of it may be driving style, but I would say you'll need one sooner rather than later if you go flex fuel. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yes definitely. But i would have upgraded even with the carb tune because how hard we are on it. She also had about 50k on the stock.

Sounds like your throttle may still be learning then.
In the initial learning stages, you can actually stall the car by stepping on the throttle *just the right amount* (although I don't know very many people who actually use this part of the throttle range). |
