Did you keep the old engine?

I doubt it. I'm sure Toyota is pulling it apart at their research facility. XRobber, you should ask them whether they would like you to test the TRD supercharger :biggrin:.

pretty good story there ....sounds like some reality tv stuff :laugh: ...so how do u think they found your truck online....did they just google your name or something:hmmmm2:
Apparently.... My name seems to be around a bit LOL

werd. i wouldn't have dealt with that b/s. if my mother and father don't yell at me, some grown ass dude isn't going to either.

props on handling the situation in the proper way tho. my friend has low compression in one of his cylinders on his 1GR. we're assuming it's the piston rings. the cause?? not sure but we're guessing it has something to do with him running 8psi into his engine created by a PT SC66:rock:
$10.00 says its a broken ring land lol.

Did you keep the old engine?
Nah, they wouldnt let me have any of the old parts.

LOL While that would be kinda cool, I have no interest in that s/c. My next project with the truck is going to be a pretty radical one.

So, did you wind up still buying that engine from the junk yard. The reason I ask is because you said you were going to build one engine while you still drove the truck with the other engine. Is that still the plan?

its sad that we all have a story about what a toyota service department has done to are trucks. And you notice that they always refuse to admit their is a problem, until you go over their heads. I know that I have gotton one service manager fired, from having a three way call with toyota corp and the dealership owner. I wonder what kind of crap they get away with the people that dont know better....
