.... Understand that these cars are OFF road only, and most/all are not
lambda-ed....  A big prollum....  Toyota may be selling some prorally stuff
this year cuz of turbo violations.....  I would think that you would have to
have some brass-genatalia to try to explain to your insurance company that
particular mod in the fire claim

Lots better time spent a lot of other places before this becomes a factor,
