We ran into some trouble because the ECU was not reading boost below 3,500rpm. Basically my supercharger has not been boosting below 3,500 rpm, or my ECU has not been reading boost below 3,500rpm, and I'm not sure why.
He bypass'd the supercharger bypass valve, and the ECU read boost below 3,500rpm and showed 40lb torque increase. So, he recommended that I tap the supercharger and put a vacuum hose on it so that the ECU can read boost from the supercharger. We changed it back because he said if I keep the bypass of the s/c bypass on that it would wear out the supercharger which would be boosting all the time. Has anybody else had a similar problem as far as their TRD s/c not boosting at low rpm's? (My car is manual, not an automatic.)
Also, the stock injectors started to lean out above 6,000 rpm in 5th gear. He recommended larger injectors if I want to drive it at all rpms. So, the URD 305cc injectors should be the solution. Now that I think about it, I think I still have a set of supra injectors that I never used. I hope they're still good.
All in all i'm pleased with the results, which seem to be similar to those with 6lbs of boost. I would like to resolve the mystery of no boost at low rpms and I'm considering putting in the larger injectors.
I'd definitely recommend Church tuning as well.

Earlier in the year I would have probably said "yep". But, I've stopped adding to the car. I just want to maintain the car's appearance at this point. I've spent a lot over the years and have to stop. The car is running good enough for me now even though I'm sure the y-pipe would help and is tempting.
