Hello,

Just to clarify we were speaking of the fuel system as a whole. Almost all injectors are sealed with orins yes. Since 98, Most if not all Toyota cars use a plastic clip and oring at the tank output hose, and at the fuel rail input line. Those are one ones that leak and pop under high fuel pressures.

Price. That will be finalized before the end of Dec. There will be a full write up on our web site. WWW.ELPROTOTYPES.COM

While this is true, you still need a 1:1 RRFPR to combat the pressure on the manifold. I know of the connectors you speak of, as I have exploded one already.

grrrr el prototypes has a terrible habit of doing this as well as not returning mails. Hopefully if the world still exists when this is completed, the wait will be worth it...

Hello,

We think a lot of Scion owners were expecting to be able to get more power from the 1nz without going inside. We didnt release the kit yet because we wanted to explore every avenue and run longevity tests. These are the results of our testing. Real world figures, no B.S. Unlike our competition, we provided the results, good or bad.

EL,

would you consider a 1500 dollar adder to include a built engine with this? (core required) ?
