Small update.
The CJM Twin Fuel Pump Assembly was installed along with new lines (-8). The car is running much better now and the fuel pressure is consistent (high 40's) during acceleration. I am running the car at 1/2 my normal DD boost level until it is retuned, so I don't know for sure if this resolved everything. I will have Pro-EFI retune the car and fix a few issues (rev limit should be 8k, boost switch at wrong levels, cold start issues, etc). Hopefully, this will be the end of the problems for me and I can start enjoying the car.

Also, I bought a big brake kit this week, which will be installed when I drop the car off for tuning. I'm stoke about the BBK. The only down side is that my 15" racing wheels don't fit. I'm going to sell the slicks and wheels and get some new ones made.

I'll update again when the next step is completed.

You'll have to fight Tyler for them! He already put them on his Supra and was asking me to sell them before I even thought about selling them!

Thanks. I hope so. That's the plan at least! I'll post an update when the tuning issues are resolved. Hopefully within a week or 2.

He only tells his favorite customers about it!

Actually, he is selling some parts and then selling the car. He sold the seats already and the brakes. I think he is selling the wheels and tires and then selling the rest with the car. I picked up the BBK for a great price, but it kinda sucks that I need new slicks and race wheels. Oh well...what's another couple $1000's?

Yep. Driving it all the time. I haven't been to the track with 22psi, but it held up quite well last winter on low boost. I'll try out 22psi when it cools off. It's just so dang hot here, there's no point in taking it to the track any time soon. 110-116 degrees is horrible for a TT and for an AT!

The car will be in Redline Magazine in the next month or so. I will post that article up when it goes online. I will also try to get some newer videos sometime soon.

Yes, still own and drive the car. The trans has held up beautifully. I still haven't been down the track on high boost, as I only get to the track about 1-2 times each year and only get 1 run before getting kicked for running too fast.

That price is WAY less than I paid for my trans build. I didn't really see a full list of what they do for that price. I am a bit wary, since they say they can do it in 1-2 days! That doesn't seem even possible, if they are going to do everything that I would think you'd want. I'd ask for more information from them and a customer reference. They make some claims on that site about setting the standard for these transmissions, but I've never heard of them or anyone using their trans. They may be legit; I'd just recommend you ask around about them before sending a transmission and thousands of $$$ to them.

Just my $0.02.
