a tuner and someone that knows how to tune it, atleast to run nice and efficiently, also it would be a good idea to get a uego (wideband air/fuel gauge) not a narrow band

you will probably be fine install your uego first just incase and if your running lean you could just turn down your boost

Not entirely... there are other reasons you'll see EGT's spike or plummet. The greater the spark advance the cooler your EGTs are (because the fuel is being ignited that much longer before the valves open and thus more of the heat is absorbed into the block, head and piston). A sudden, abnormal spike in EGT may be indicative of serious know which is resulting in the ECU pulling spark advance causing the EGTs to climb (yet it reduces the engine temp)... for example. But yes, EGT does also reflect mixture. EGT has been used for tuning fueling for far longer than AFR. Using both to your advantage is a very good move if you're willing to go the the expense and effort.

also i was talking to one of my friends who has a 320rwhp supra, and he took it to sound perfomrance to get i tuned. when i asked him what he was using he said an hks vpc and a safc2, i was looking at hks website, and the vpc unit is discontinued. what would be a good relacement to tune with. i know ultimately it would be a standalone, but what else would work

thankyou
