yes this is my second turbo runner and they are gutless, my other one would hit 105 though
this couldn't have a wet dream of doing that.

I don't have fifth due to the auto. but at 60 and cruising flat ground some time it fights and can't reach it and some times it cruises with 2 to 3 bars of boost. I have taken it on several 100 mile trips to test it.

It's all stock tire size and axle and gear setup. It's right at 12 mpg and less when it decides it doesn't want to go.My other runner got about 16 mpg or so but it had a toyota crate engine and brand new turbo, all installed by Toyota. It would on occasion peel the rubber off the new (31x10.50's).

I'm assuming it's a cable as mine has 2 cables going to the throttle body. It kicks down just fine. It has a normal and power mode, I have to drive in power mode so that when it decides to hate me, I can bury the throttle and shift down quicker.

It seems like it's in first, could be going to second I guess, sometimes It shifts so smooth I can't tell.

I know how to check codes, and have, none have appeared.

AND one more thing....I know there are some vacuum hoses wrong I routed the main lines as according to the chilton but there are many others that are not right I'm sure. I can't find any other runner's to take pictures of or anything on the web either....sighh

thanks a ton for your time......Rex
