Can someone associated with Toyota find out that the ECU Flash for the SC consists of? I would love to see screen pics. They obviously have a way to deal with it. The new injectors they send with the SC kit is 410cc. Our stock is 372cc or so. Hardly worth the upgrade with a stage 0 turbo.

Guys, we need a peek at the ECU supercharger flash.

^^^Yes please. As I'm looking to be boosted next month. I'm sorry to hear about that Joe. Hopefully we can learn from the SC specs, so people aren't force to get the SC.

I was considering the SC as well in all of it's street legal goodness, untill I saw on McGeorge's website that it will give about 25% increase in power. That will only bring the tC to about 187hp. I bet we could get 187hp with an NA setup on the tC!

Yeah. The advantages of a TC definetly outweigh the advantages of a SC on our car IMO.

TC on a tC. Makes sense.

Well guys my throttle plate is fine it turns out. We're getting more into things tomorrow because I have the whole day off. I'm checking so see if the fuel rail setup failed, which would lead me to making custom spacers for a new setup that'll be more secure. Hopefully it's only that.

I did find a computer system that works in junction with our ECUs AND the Emanage. It doesn't cost a lot more and should fix the problem. I'll post more details tomorrow night. Anyone want to host a couple dyno videos for me?

Joe: I asked a friend who knows way more about TCCS than I do about the drive by wire issues. He commented the throttle will close unexpectedly for a number of potentially damaging events including knock detection. Maybe you've discovered some of those events?

Thanks I appreciate you looking into that for me. Everything is fixed and the car is running pretty well right now. We'll be finishing up the dyno tuning on Friday so hopefully everything works out ok.

The issue was a defective rubber doughnut that comes with the RC injectors. It was larger than the other three and leaking some fuel out. We removed all four doughnuts and brought the rail closer to the injectors (using the stock spacers) and so far it hasn't leaked at all. I think the ECU detected a low fuel pressure and shut the plate to keep anything from happening. Things are all cleaned up and I'll be uploading a video shortly. Thanks to everyone.

Remember these vids are before any major dyno tuning. It has some tuning under it's belt but with severely retarded ignition timing and a very rich AFR (close to about 11).

VIDEOS AS PROMISED!!!

Right click and DL please so I don't kill our website bandwidth. Thanks guys!
