6 psi... I've got SS headers and larger SRT intake. The e-manage ultimate should take over and I won't need the SRT piggyback anymore. ASSuming it fits.

I looked into the emanage and it's version is 1.07, it doesn't list the 3uz engine but I assume an update would list it. I was also told the baseline was included. Anyone with emanage experience maybe can answer my question.

I'm I able to download the current settings in emanage? I'd like to do that before I upgrade it to a newer version with the baseline greddy provided.

PM me before you do that please

A roots type S/C for the 3UZ would be awesome! Very, very cool! Nice job picking that up and good luck.

Would changing the thermostat to a lower temp help with this type of supercharger? I'm aiming at making it more efficient.

Tom's supercharger sold here?
https://www.clublexus.com/forums/clu...time-deal.html

looks like the Tom's manifold is a cheaper design...if this manifold were available, many of us can go supercharged on the cheap... not $13k. Can anyone design something like that? This two piece design would be cost effective..then we can just buy our own charger and mount it on top.

Man, seriously, the tom's intake design is cheaper to make. If they can sell the intake, we can put m112 on it an it'll fit nicely with reliability added. It'll give the 2gs a whole new life. This engine still rivals the newer ones coming out.

Installed picx? I am anxious to get it done but I don't think it'll be anytime soon

Good thing about this setup is an easy to replace supercharger...it's an mp90. If it can be redone, I'd want the mp112. If only toms' would just sell the intake manifold - it'll have no clearance issue with the combination.

what if you did something custom to your hood for more clearance?

Based on the measurement I took, it looks to clear... but the mp112 and tom's intake manifold booth are shorter than what I got. Eventually, I will put this thing on...it just wont happen too soon.

I need to read up on FI and tuning.
