  1. Hi guys, I took the car out today and noticed that the car doesn't build boost on WOT (wide open throttle). The car can build boost on half a throttle to like 5-8psi but as soon as I plant my foot down the boost just went down straight to 0psi. I tried to put it on TTC and that didn't help either. And it is important to note that the car doesn't smoke whatsoever and drives perfect off-boost. I only bought the car like 3 months ago and its giving me a problem already -_- Any idea when do I have to start ? Thank you !
  2. Awesome thanks for the feedback Swampy442 ! I will stop worrying about it and start enjoying the car again ! Thanks
  3. Hi Scooter, I did notice a small puddle of oil in the airbox. This is the rear bypass hose that been replaced with a straight hose. Would this one of the possibilities that cause this problem with oil in the pipes ? Cheers
  4. Thanks for the input mate ! Also I just changed the spark plugs before and I noticed one of the bypass hoses under the cover ( the rear one ) has been replaced with some straight hose which has been forced into a "Z" shape which completely kinked on the bends. I'll order a proper bypass hose from Toyota on Monday hopefully it will help Cheers
  5. Greetings from New Zealand ! I just bought my supra 3 months ago and a couple of weeks ago when I was driving I noticed a small amount of smoke coming out the bonnet. I pulled over and found there was oil leak coming from the air intake hose ( the one that goes to the airbox ) dripped to the exhaust shield. Upon close inspection I found out the hose has multiple splits so I ordered a new hose. So today when I pulled the old hose off I noticed some oil in the pipes. Do I have to worry about this ? The car does NOT blow smokes on idle or on acceleration whatsoever and its boosting as it should. Any comments will be much appreciated. Thanks !
