Did you buy that supra pump used or new? and if new, from where? I need a new one too...
And easy on the Jeep/slow comments... yesterday I showed someone up who was driving an X3 like a douchebag.... I enjoyed that small victory for the mighty 4.0L

I ran a 17x9 +24 (A popular mustang offset) for a good while, but after the accident I ended up with 2 bent wheels.
I purchased a set of 4 17x9 +17's as a temporary replacement until I can find either new wheels or fix the old ones I had. I'm currently running 275's in the rear on a pair of 17x9 +17. I am still running the 17x9 +24 in the front with 255's along with a 5mm spacer.
I've got some things to take care of before I get new tires, but eventually I'll have the 17x9 +17 on all corners, with 255 nitto nt-05's.
As for fender modifications to use the 17x9 +17, I had to roll and flare all corners a good bit - I even messed up a little on the driver's front fender. That steel is so thin.
I haven't put the car on the dyno, so power is still unknown, but the last motor I had put out 230whp and 210tq at 10psi, with a pretty flat torque curve. I think my current tune and new motor is much better this time around. It's nothing impressive to talk about though haha.
I purchased the Denso pump from
www.titanmotorsports.com $190 shipped brand new - everyone else was backordered, but they came through for me and had it shipped to my door before my tune. The pump went in flawlessly - perfect fit. I'm used to the walbro's whine, so I thought I wired the pump wrong when I turned the key, haha.
I learn how to drive better by driving the Jeep
. Gotta be smooth when going through turns with no swaybars. My brother is going to use it for a while since his 10th AE got stolen a few months ago, I just have to do some maintenance and repairs on it before I hand it off. Best thing I ever purchased for 600 bucks.
