Didn't know this build existed till now! lookin good so far! I followed you supra good work on it! I am with the other guys on the shocks, they will work if you are on a super tight budget but the instant you get a set of afcos you will never regret it. I had the exact same shock and was going mid to high 1.4x 60's I switched to the afcos the car Is consistently .05 quicker on the 60ft. This is with a t56 set up as well.

Yea sorry for the lack of updates I haven't had time to work on the car at all up until the last couple nights. So i got the fuel system done and all the wiring and fired it up the other night. It started literally on the first crank, it sounds BAD ***! I love it. It revs extremely quick with this flywheel/clutch setup. All that is left is little stuff like wiring up the radiator fans, installing the hood pins, heat wrapping a few things, etc.

I should have it on the dyno this weekend if I get everything done. Here's a pic of the engine bay from a few days ago.

Oh yea, it has a ton of capabilities. Going to be very helpful at the track as far as setting it up for usable power. Darin pretty much runs a Motec in every one of his cars and suggests them to most of his customers as well. It's the unit he prefers to tune most. I love my Motec in my car.

I have read a little about them. Do they run wasted spark like the AEM and such for the Supra? I have a friend with a SC400 that runs ProEFI I think and he swears by it, it looks comparable to the MoTec to me.

Motec M800's are somewhere around $6,000-7,000 right?
