That's what suprra_girl and I have been trying to tell you.

You have no basis for that recommendation. Until you know 94T88Widebody's horsepower goals, and until we know for sure exactly why his engine has apparently lost compression, you have no basis for saying he needs "forged goodies".

Afaik, there is no such thing as 1400cc injectors. Please post a link to where YOU last purchased a set of them.
Also note we don't know which model of GReddy T88 that he's running, nor do we know his target/max boost level, nor the type of fuel he plans to run. Why are you making assumptions and jumping to conclusions about what do do with his engine, before we're even sure if we have his ignition problem solved?

No, we actually do know that. It's called an AEM
...what did you think he was talking about - a cold-air intake?

If detonation caused the damage, "forged goodies" won't prevent detonation, nor will they survive further detonation.

Again, he does have a standalone. It's called an AEM.

Again, please don't post on technical threads in this forum anymore, unless it happens to be a thread that you're certain you know what you're talking about. For example, if you've EVER personally worked on a Supra as highly modified as 94T88Widebody's please post your reference(s) immediately (yes, I will contact them). If not, please don't further pollute threads like this with any more of your wild guesses. Your lack of understanding, misinformation and potentially bad advice is getting in the way of us trying to help 94T88Widebody get his ignition & engine problems solved...

NB: Please consider posting any help requests in a new thread instead of asking me for help privately. About 99.9+% of the time, private help requests end up covering great information that could be very valuable to other forum members. If you have a good reason for needing the help request to be private, I'll consider it. If not, then why not give everyone else the opportunity to pitch in too, and/or learn from the information? Remember, there's no such thing as a dumb question. We're all here to help within this family of Supra owners.
