Did you use plastic valve stem caps? A lot of people use the metal ones cuz they look cool but they fuse to the stem and are a bitch to get off, if they even come off!

Those look pretty nice! I just ordered a set for myself!

Recieved and installed my Auto-Stop Eliminator.

I thought you had a tune? Maybe I'm mistaken. ZFG takes that feature out for ya.

Great point on this. I too was victimized by the green aluminum cap fusion. stick with the plastic here, it's not worth the headache and risk cutting it yourself. Ford wanted to charge me $120 to fix it - i said "yo-mama!". Pulled out the dremel and went to town.

BTW - Cobb Access Port has both the auto/stop eliminator and pedal commander. You can do it yourself and adjust directly from the device.

They can’t take the auto stop/start out with the tune. At least that’s what Adam told me when I asked about it. I also asked about the automatic parking brake at the same time and he said they didn’t have control over that with the tune.

Interesting. Did not know that was a thing.

She's going to have to get used to regular air like the rest of us, LOL.

I like to switch out my summer air with winter air and add blue caps as indicators. When I go back to summer air I add red caps

That's strange. It was taken out by the tune for me. Maybe it's no longer an option.

Installed this today. Much more sporty than stock!

Looks great Supra!

Adam has taken the auto start/stop out of all my tune revisions? Not sure why he can’t do it anymore…?

So for me I was about a half hour from putting my wire cover on the front frame but got a little careless with the buffer and burned through the clear and paint on both outside corners… starting over but have a good base so hope to have it on Saturday.

You should market this!

Thanks!

Maybe the start/stop removal got hit by legalities. (shrug)

I don’t have time or patience to mass produce these but was thinking about making a template so if others wanted to they could make one.

Also, washed it because it was a tough weekend...

That looks like our area
Wash it, 2 days later rear covered in dust

So I got it finished and installed... Here are some pictures as well as the template. For the template the dotted lines are where it is bent and in the bottom right is the side view so you can see the angles...
PLEASE NOTE THAT THE TEMPLATE IS MIRRORED… THE TOP SHOULD BE THE BOTTOM.
