The PPI build is really progressing nicely. I have attached a few teaser shots as well as the custom STB that Barron Millet built for me... STB: More to come... Ryan

Nice work. Cruising in our cars with clean tunes makes it so much more enjoyable. Ryan

The good news is the Lexus is being prepped to represent in the Spring Break Nationals this coming May, 2013. I am looking forward to finally getting this car done and completed. All the MB Quart components and the Alpine V12 amps came out of the Lexus this weekend and were installed in the...

I want to thank all of you Lextreme Members so much for following along. It is hard when it takes so very long to get a project done. All of you here on Lextreme have been so encouraging and positive and helpful about this project. I appreciate all the well wishes for both me and my car...

Members, lurkers, trollers and guests, I have been a member of this wonderful and very performance oriented forum for many years now. It is through this site and David Phan's efforts and his dedication to the Lexus V8 performance potential that nudged me to move forward with my project. I...

Took the car out or a test drive today... Overall, the test went well. It was a very hot day today...90 degrees and fairly high humidity. Anyway, drove the Lexus around town and on the Interstate, and it drove quite well. Now that the voltage is correct and stable, not only did the car drive...

Manifolds are thick wall stainless. I do not recall the tubing thickness, but I will check with the fabricator and he will know. Had to wrap them or the heat would melt everything in the engine bay. Ryan

Finally, another update! Well, I finally have an update for you all. Once again, thanks for your well wishes with my wrist/arm. I am healing well, and quickly, but it is challenging with the Physical Therapy. I finally got a chance to get back on the car this past Sunday, and it was an...

Most comprehensive project I have seen on this car and the UZ...WOW! I love your OCD attention to detail. Can't wait to see the finished product! Ryan

Thanks for the additional info. Looking like a sweet project you got going. In for the results. A set of these would look great on my roject, but i see lots of work to make them fit and function. Ryan

Looking forward to hearing how you like it. Ryan

I am in Business Telecommunications and Data Networking. I manage Enterprise accounts for my company. Ryan

Thanks Steve. Ryan

Lesson learned Another note: As i mentioned previously, this project is my first one, and even though I planned it carefully, I just really way underestimated the time, money and scope of what I was undertaking. At the time I only had a working knowledge of cars, and I had to teach myself the...

Sorry I haven't posted up in weeks. A little over 3 weeks ago, I hit a curb on a narrow sidewalk which leads to the Seminole Wekiva bike trail, and unfortunately, my 10 speed flipped, I went flying forward, and did not manage to get my left hand off the handlebar...my hand rolled forward under...

Steve, had to order replacement gaskets and wait for them to come in. Some of the turbo plumbing has to be removed to replace the alternator. I should have the alternator replaced this weekend. Haven't been able to get on the car and wrench... Ryan

I am also thinking what would I gap the plugs at? Ryan

Awesome news Cribb! I always love this forum...The place to go to get real answers! I don't need 2 of them do I? One for each coil? Ryan
