    My TKO600 that I bought from American Powertrain supposedly has that shift upgrade for high rpm shifts but I tried to shift around 6700ish rpms and it said :nono:. So I'm starting to think they charged me for it but didn't actually do it.:mad:

    Mike when you were looking at catch can breather setups why didn't you look at the setups for 1 bank turbo engines like the all mighty 2JZ in the Supras? Shouldn't that be the same concept? :shrug:

    You know what, now that you reminded me of the theme of the interior, you're right. I'll change my vote to #3 simply because it fits the theme. I should have gone back a few pages to remind myself of the details of the interior. My laziness got the best of me and I just went with what I like out...

    @jrichker I'm still beating my head against a wall about this coil issue I'm having. I haven't had the money to buy another coil yet so I'm still trying to figure out why I keep blowing coils. I checked my grounds with a power probe. They checked out fine but I want to check the quality of...

    Wow Mike, do ANY of your "tests" end successfully the first time? :nonono::D Oh and to refer back to the long post before this one. Firefighters that disguise as hobbyist car builder/put-togetherers read your threads too. :cool:

    Yes, simply to make sure you're pushing all the fluid you can through it to insure you get all the air out of the whole system. Once the system is bled then adjust it to where you want it. I caught hell bleeding my system and it took me a while to finally get it right but I think one of the...
